Latching Alarms - The alarm continues when the alarm condition is eliminated. Latching alarms can be reset by pressing the

Silence/Reset key. Alternatively, all latching alarms can be turned off using the Suspend Alarms softkey or the Suspend hardkey. Latching alarms for individual parameters can be turned off in the Adjust Alarms Task Window or the Alarm Limits Task Window.

Non-latching Alarms - These automatically reset when the alarm condition is eliminated. INOPs are always non-latching.

Alarm Reminder - This only functions with alarms and not INOPs. (It does not work for arrhythmia alarms.) It affects the alarm sound, lamp, nurse call relay and the recorder, but not the alarm messages. The alarm reminder and reminder time can be configured as follows:
