AutoPEEP
Alarm triggers when the exhaled flow from the patient continues
throughout the expiratory period causing the expiratory control valve to
cycle throughout the period to maintain the baseline pressure.

Inspiratory Demand
Alarm triggers when the end-Inspiratory pressure is < -1.0 cm H
2
O for 3
consecutive breaths.

RTC Battery Low
Alarm triggers when the real-time clock (RTC) battery is less than ~2.5 volts.

PM Due
Alarm triggers at start up when the preselected number of days has elapsed
since the last calibration.

Power Cycle Need
This alarm occurs when the device has been running continuously for 30
days.

Self Check Fault
Alarm triggers when the ambient pressure transducer fails. When this
occurs, the device is no longer able to automatically compensate for
changes in altitude especially in situations where the ambient pressure
could change rapidly as during transport by air.

Excessive Altitude
Alarm triggers when the ambient pressure transducer detects an altitude >
25,000 feet (7620 meters). Beyond this altitude, compensation remains
fixed at the 25,000 ft compensation level.

3132
Low Altitude
Alarm triggers when the ambient pressure transducer detects an altitude < -
2,000 feet below sea level (610 meters, 15.8 psig or 103 kPa). This can be
caused by use in subterranean rescue operation or mistaken use in a
hyperbaric chamber. Beyond this pressure level, compensation remains
fixed at the -2,000 ft level.

Ambient Temperature Fault
Alarm triggers when the ambient temperature exceeds the normal
operating range, > 131 °F (55 °C) for the ventilator.

3141
Ambient Temperature Fault
Alarm triggers when the ambient temperature falls below the normal
operating range < 14 °F (-10 °C) for the ventilator.
