Indicators
Visual Alarm indicator
Audible Alarm indicator
Beeps to indicate a patient alarm, and beeps faster for life-threatening arrhythmia alarms.
Beeps when the equipment needs attention. This beep tone is slower than the patient
alarm tones.
Volume can be configured at Acuity as high, low, or off.
Volume can be configured at Acuity for network connection or for when communications
with the FlexNet network are interrupted.
Controls
Snapshot key
When connected to Acuity, pressing this key sends a snapshot of the patient’s
numeric and waveform data to the Acuity Central Monitoring System. Depending on
how Acuity is configured, this will cause Acuity to print a 21-second snapshot (14
seconds of history, 7 seconds of data after the button is pressed) to the Acuity central
station printer.
Scroll up and reset Patient Alarm Tone key
• Scrolls up menus on the display.
• Resets a silenced patient alarm tone.
Green Flashes slowly during normal operation.
Red Flashes during patient alarm. Remains on continuously when alarms are
silenced or suspended.
Yellow Flashes during an equipment alert and while the monitor is not connected to
the network.
Remains on continuously if the operator suspends an alert at Acuity for 90
seconds or acknowledges (dismisses) a low battery alert from the monitor or
Acuity.
Note
Flashing green indicates that the monitor is connected to the network but not
necessarily connected to a patient. If the monitor is actively monitoring a
patient, continuous green indicates that no alarms or alerts are detected.
Note
Snapshot is the default selection of the monitor. However, the connected monitor
will inherit the configuration previously defined by Acuity. For example, if Acuity
has defined the Snapshot key to respond with a Nurse Call function and a new
monitor is introduced to the system, the Snapshot key definition will remain as
Nurse Call.
