The Main Menu
104
The first Alarm Settings screen presents 6 slide indicators that
control the range of values for triggering alarms. Some of these
Alarm Conditions have a high and a low value (Rate, Minute
Value, Pressure, FiO
2
), while Apnea accepts only a maximum
value, and Leak accepts a percentage.
Notice that the blue ribbon indicates the scale of an active alarm
threshold within the entire possible range of values. The red
number(s) beside each indicator show the currently selected
alarm value(s). The small black numerals to the left of each
gauge show the absolute maximum or minimum allowable
alarm setting. The larger blue numbers to the left of each gauge
show each parameter’s current operative value.
Note: To save any alarm change, the ”Accept” button must be
highlighted and selected. Exiting the alarm screen by any
other means will cancel all changes that have been made.
