This setting configures the Low Inspiratory Pressure alarm. It is only user-settable in CV, AC, and SIMV modes. It cannot be set lower than PEEP + 2 cm H2O or higher than the High Inspiratory Pressure. For passive circuits, you can increase or decrease the Low Inspiratory Pressure from 6 to 40 cm H2O in increments of 1 cm H2O. For active circuits, you can increase or decrease the setting from 2 to 40 cm H2O in increments of 1 cm H2O. For pressure modes, this alarm is not user- settable.
