Turning Temperature Alarm Audio Off
WARNING
• Never disable an auditory alarm if this action could compromise patient safety.
• Do not rely exclusively on the auditory alarm system for patient monitoring. The most reliable
method of patient monitoring requires correct operation of the monitor and close observation of
the patient.
Alarm audio is on by default unless either of the following is true:
• You are operating in Alarms Off monitoring mode (if this mode was enabled by your
system administrator). See “Alarms Off Mode” on page 4-16.
• Audio is globally turned off (if this option was enabled by your system administrator).
See “Global Audio Off Mode” on page 4-15.
In the Temperature menu, you can touch the Alarm Audio On/Off button to toggle
alarm audio on and off. For details, see “To turn off alarm audio for one measurement”
on page 4-9.
Changing the Temperature Alarm Limits
For information on changing the temperature alarm limits, see “Changing Alarm Limits”
on page 4-7.
The temperature default alarm limits are:
If a high or low temperature alarm occurs in Monitored mode, the alarm message and the
blue background in the Temperature pane remain on the screen after you touch the
Acknowledge Alarm button.
The alarm is cleared only when the patient’s temperature returns to normal or you place
the temperature probe back in the probe well.
