Technical Alarms (INOPs)
Technical Alarms, or INOPs (inoperative conditions), are sourced at the
transceiver, the ST/AR algorithm running at the Information Center, or TeleMon
Companion Monitor. They identify inoperative conditions (that is conditions
where the system is not operating properly and therefore cannot measure or
detect alarm conditions reliably). There are four levels of Technical Alarms:
• Severe - Monitoring and alarms disabled. Audible tone at the Information
Center. Must be acknowledged by a clinician.
• Hard - Monitoring and alarms are disabled. Audible tone at the
Information Center.
If the hard INOP is "latched", the sound will be silenced, but the message
will remain on the display until resolution of the offending condition.
• Soft - Monitoring and alarms remain active. No audible tones are
generated.
• Red/Yellow - Replace Battery and ECG Leads Off INOPs may be
configured to display as either Red or Yellow Technical Alarms.
