Incoming Alarm

If your bed is configured to receive alarms, you receive alarms from beds in your Other Patients group which are configured to transmit alarms. If such a bed in your group goes into alarm, it can be:

•A totally new alarm.

•A new alarm situation on a bed which is already in alarm.

There are two ways your monitor can react:

•If it is in Main Screen it reverts automatically to Other Patients mode and enters the Alarm Bed Task Window.

•If it is in a Selection or Task window the message Other bed in alarm is displayed in the status line.

In both cases you will hear the Other Patients prompt tone consisting of two double beeps.
