The Nurse
Call Relay Note— The nurse call relay is not available for the V24CT and V26CT.
The nurse call relay is a paging system which warns the nurse if an alarm
occurs on a monitor. It becomes active in one of four situations
depending on the way it has been configured:
• Red only alarms
• Red and Yellow alarms
• Red and INOP alarms
• Red and Yellow INOP alarms.
The nurse call relay is not active when the monitor’s alarm capability is
switched off.
Note— The delay time to the nurse call relay output is max. 1 sec.
When an alarm has been silenced using the key, and the
audible 2 or 3 minute alarm reminder is configured to be either On or Re-
alarm, the nurse call relay signals will behave as follows:
