8 Alarms
To indicated a technical error, the alarm also displays the symbol
and a number so that the techni-
cal department can identify the exact source of the alarm.
If several alarms are triggered, a small arrow appears on the right-hand side of the panel, and only the
highest-priority alarm is visible. Press the panel to display the list of current alarms.
If multiple alarms are displayed in this list, the user can browse all alarms using the control wheel.
Note:
The audible alarm is for a doctor working near the patient. The maximum distance
away and the volume of the alarm must therefore be determined by this person according to
the situation.
8.2 Acknowledgement of alarms
Certain alarms open a dialogue box. These are “acknowledgeable” alarms, which are specifically in-
tended to inform the user of a particular event.
A stand-by request or switching to internal battery are examples of acknowledgeable alarms. The user
must validate using the control wheel; the dialogue box then disappears.
8.3 Inhibition of alarms
Press
to interrupt the audible signal for two minutes.
This greys out the inhibit button.
Press
to cancel the alarm inhibition. The alarm message remains on the screen.
If this alarm is replaced by another audible alarm with a higher priority, the inhibit function is automati-
cally disabled and the new alarm begins to sound. The previous alarm is then automatically archived in
the history.
