There are two types of patient alarm popup windows:
•
Single alarm popup window
•
Multiple alarms popup window
Single alarm
If only one alarm is active on your mobile device, this Alarm popup window appears in the
foreground of your screen.
If more than one alarm occurs at once for the same patient, the patient’s highest priority
alarm is indicated in the popup window.
A single alarm popup window is always associated with a tone, vibration or both.
