Alarms<br />

Many alarms such as HIGH PRES can occur during normal operation. Information on addressing<br />

alarms is covered in Chapter 9 – Ventilator Alarms. Single occurrences of some alarms, such as HW<br />

FAULT or RESET may be caused by ESD. If these alarms reoccur, and for other alarms that do not<br />

usually occur during normal operation, follow the instructions in this section or immediately contact<br />

<strong>CareFusion</strong>.<br />

Multiple Alarm Priorities<br />

When multiple active alarms occur at the same time, the alarm with the highest priority level will be<br />

displayed. When a highest priority active alarm is reset, any remaining active alarms will be displayed<br />

in order of priority one by one as each alarm is reset.<br />

When multiple alarms occur:<br />

A flashing alarm message appears in the display window showing the highest priority active<br />

alarm.<br />

An audible alarm will sound.<br />

Any associated control displays will flash.<br />

Depending on the alarm, other actions may be taken, such as terminating an inspiration or<br />

opening the exhalation valve.<br />

When an alarm is reset and other alarms have occurred at the same time, the active alarms will occur<br />

in order of priority level until each alarm is individually reset.<br />

Active alarms take priority over inactive alarms.<br />

Priority levels<br />

Alarm condition priority levels are categorized in one or more of the following levels: High Priority,<br />

Medium Priority, or Low Priority.<br />

Alarms (in order of priority):<br />

Alarm Name Displayed Alarm Priority Level<br />

1. INOP 56 Inoperable (ventilator shutdown) High<br />

2. REMOVE PTNT Remove Patient High<br />

3. APNEA Apnea High<br />

5. BAT EMPTY Internal Battery Empty High<br />

6. BAT LOW Internal Battery Low High<br />

7. POWER LOST External Power Lost High<br />

8. POWER LOW External Power Low High<br />

56 If an INOP alarm condition occurs the ventilator will shut down and the Vent Inop LED on the front panel will<br />

be illuminated red and the audible alarm will sound continuously. See Chapter 9 – Ventilator Alarms for more<br />

information on the INOP alarm.<br />
