10 Alarms and troubleshooting
The ASTOPAD does not require continuous supervision by the user, but must be
inspected at regular intervals (depending on the condition of the patient). For this,
the intended operating location is immediately in front of the control panel of the
ASTOPAD control unit.
In the event of failure of the ASTOPAD, possible injury to the patient is delayed
and the user has sufficient time to provide alternative warming methods.
To guarantee the safe operation of ASTOPAD for patients and users, ASTOPAD
is equipped with a series of independent alarm systems. The alarms are the result
of consistent implementation of the standards listed in Section
15 Conformity with international standards.
The alarm signal is output visually and acoustically.
The following only describes the behaviour of the ASTOPAD control unit under
alarm conditions for output A. The ASTOPAD control unit behaves in the same
way under alarm conditions for output B.
