Hi/Lo Patient Temperature Alarms
The System features two patient temperature alarms: “Hi” and “Lo”. If the alarms
are set, the System will alarm whenever the patient’s temperature is higher than
the “Hi” Patient Temperature Alarm value and whenever the patient’s
temperature is lower than the “Lo” Patient Temperature Alarm value. The range
of values for both alarms is 28 ºC – 45 ºC (82.4 ºF – 113.0 ºF).

The alarm values are set as follows in either STANDBY or RUN mode. Set the
“Lo” and “Hi” Patient Temperature Alarms to appropriate values.
1. Press the knob and the Main Menu will appear.
2. Select the “Settings” option and press the knob.
3. Select the “Hi/Lo Alarms” option.
4. The “Lo” Alarm value will be presented. Turn the knob until the desired
value is displayed and press the knob.

Nature of the Alarm
Figure 4-12. “Hi” Patient Temperature Alarm
The alarms are both visual and audible. The alarms will not clear until the
patient’s temperature no longer triggers the alarm state.
The audible alarm may be temporarily muted for 2 minutes by pressing the Mute
button. The alarm will continue after that time unless it has cleared.
The visual alarm is effected by writing the patient temperature area on the screen
in RED text and flashing the text. The visual alarm will not stop until the alarm
has cleared.
