The frame around the softkey for a bed in alarm will blink until the
alarm is silenced by that bed. If the alarms on a bed in your Other
Patients Selection Window are suspended, the
symbol will appear on
the respective softkey.

Patients Incoming Alarm
If your bed is configured to receive alarms, you receive alarms from
beds in your Other Patients group which are configured to transmit
alarms. If such a bed in your group goes into alarm, it can be:
• A totally new alarm.
• A new alarm situation on a bed which is already in alarm.
There are two ways your monitor can react:
• If it is in Main Screen it reverts automatically to Other Patients
mode and enters the Alarm Bed Task Window.
• If it is in a Selection or Task window the message Other bed in
alarm is displayed in the status line.
In both cases you will hear the Other Patients prompt tone consisting of
two double beeps.
