After caring for the patient, verify that alarm limits are enabled and correctly set.

Suspending the alarm tone

If this feature is enabled in the monitor configuration (See

“Monitor configuration”

on

page 103), you can suspend all alarm tones for all parameters—preventing the alarm tone
from sounding if an alarm condition occurs—while monitoring a patient. If an alarm
condition occurs while the alarm tones are suspended, the monitor presents visual alarm
indicators but does not sound the tone.

In the monitor configuration, the alarm tone suspension period can be set to Disabled, to
Always On, or to a period: 90 sec or 2, 3, 4, 5, 10, 15, 30, or 60 minutes.

If it is configured to Disabled, you cannot suspend the alarm tone at the monitor.

WARNING If you turn off or modify any alarm limits while responding to an
alarm, restore those alarm limits before you resume monitoring.
