Reset (pause or turn off) audio alarms
Audio alarm characteristics
•
After you reset an audio alarm, some tones do not return, but others return after a pause
interval if the condition that caused the alarm persists. Settings in the Advanced tab determine
the length of the pause interval.
• If a new alarm condition occurs during a pause interval, a new audio tone occurs.
• If an audio alarm is not paused or turned off after a period of time, a buzzer accompanies the
tone.

countdown timer. A new NIBP audio tone sounds after the countdown unless you touch

display order of alarms from highest (left) to lowest (right)
priority (as well as the most recent in the case of multiple
alarms of the same priority) will appear below it.
