Alarms

Helpful hint!
You can adjust the volume of the audible alert. For information, refer to Device settings. After any
adjustment, make sure you can still hear the alarm clearly from a distance.
Resetting alarms
Resetting an alarm removes that alarm from the Alarm display and the Active alarms screen, and turns
off the visual and audible alerts. An active alarm should only be reset after the situation that caused the
alarm has been attended to. If the alarm condition has not been corrected, the alarm will activate again.
The Astral device may automatically clear an alarm when the condition that triggered the alarm is
corrected. When an alarm is cleared it no longer displays in the Active alarms screen and the audible and
visual alerts cease.
When an alarm is cleared or manually reset, the Alarm display then shows the next highest priority active
alarm.
Some alarms cannot be manually reset. For these alarms you must correct the cause of the alarm.
Resolving the alarm will automatically clear the display.
To reset the displayed active alarm:
1. Press
to mute the alarm. The button illuminates and flashes.
2. Press
again to reset the alarm. The alarm message is removed from the Alarm display. It
is also cleared from the Active alarms screen.
Note: You can carry out this procedure with the Active alarms screen open, if you want visibility of all the active
alarms as you perform the reset.
To reset all active alarms:
1. Press the Alarm display on the Information bar. The Active alarms screen is displayed.
2. Press Reset all to reset multiple alarms. Only those alarms that can be reset, will be reset. Any
remaining alarms will require user intervention and correction.
3. Complete any required action to resolve the remaining alarms.
4. Press OK to close the Active alarms screen and return to the previous screen.
Adjusting the alarm volume
The volume level of the Astral device can be set from one to five (with five being the loudest and the
default being three). Your Clinician has pre-set a minimum volume level. Any settings below the set
minimum are greyed out and are disabled from use.
