Information on alarms and instructions on how to set and work with alarms are cov-

ered in detail in the “Alarm Management” chapter starting on page 105.

Enabling Remote Alert

With Remote Alert enabled, a designated PatientNet Viewer automatically displays an

alarming patient’s channel and sounds the alarm. See “Remote Viewing Stations” on

page 175 for more information.

To enable Remote Alert:

1. Press the Alarm Config button on the Patient Settings screen.

2. Highlight the desired alarm in the alarm configuration screen and toggle the

Assign button to On.

Note: This applies to the PatientNet Viewer and the Interactive-PatientNet Viewer.

Assigning a Pager Number to a Patient

Note: This applies only if your system includes the paging option. See “Paging”

starting on page 238 for further instructions and details on paging.

To assign a pager number or telephone extension to a patient for notification in case of

alarms:

1. Press Pager # on the Patient Settings screen to bring up the on-line numeric

keypad.

2. Enter the pager number or telephone extension (maximum 7 characters) to be

assigned to this patient and press Enter.

3. If the patient belongs to a zone (a group of up to ten different pager numbers),

enter Z and then the zone number. Alarms enabled for paging will be sent to

all pagers in the zone. Zone group paging is set up by the system administra-

tor.

4. Select None if you wish no page to be sent.

Note: Pagers may also be set-up by group, where a number of pagers belong to a

single group.
