limits, depending on the monitoring requirements of each patient. You can
even set a high or low alarm limit to OFF, so that no alarm will be issued.
Check the list of default alarm limits at the chapter of specification.
WARNING! Alarm high limit cannot be lower than low limit. If high limit is
lower than low limit, the monitor will not respond.
WARNING! When the monitor is turned on for the first time, it will default
to the alarm configuration for an adult.
