Start-Up and Use
To change an existing alarm limit, first enter the viewing mode
for that value, as described earlier in “Viewing Current Alarm
Limits.” Once the value you wish to change is displayed, press
the Adjust Up or Adjust Down button to adjust the value as
needed.
Alarm Limits Changed Indicator
If alarm limits are changed from the NPB-290’s power-on
defaults, a decimal point appears after the displayed value, during
patient monitoring, or when alarm limits are viewed. The
decimal point remains on the digital display until the NPB-290 is
turned off or the limit is returned to its default value.
Adjusting Audible Alarm Silence Duration
WARNING: Do not silence an audible alarm or decrease its
volume if patient safety could be compromised.
Alarms can be silenced for a preset period called the audible
alarm silence duration. The audible alarm silence duration
begins when you press and release the Alarm Silence button.
If an alarm condition occurs while the alarm is silenced, the alarm
will not sound until the alarm silence duration has ended.
Note: An additional press of the Alarm Silence button
reactivates the audible alarm.
If the alarm condition is still present or a new alarm condition
occurs after the alarm silence duration has elapsed, an audible
alarm sounds.
The power-on default audible alarm silence duration setting is in
effect unless it is changed. The power-on default set at the
factory is 60 seconds. This default setting can be adjusted by
service personnel as described in the NPB-290 service manual.
