AlarmView™ System User’s Guide
Because pager operations may vary in different models, the basic
functions of your pager are described in
Appendix A: Basic Pager
Functions
of this guide. Refer to Appendix A for instructions on the
following functions:
• Turning Pager On/Off
• Selecting Tone or Vibrate
• Setting Date/Time
• Adjusting Contrast
• Viewing and Deleting Pages
• Replacing Pager Battery
u Replace pager batteries weekly. If pager batteries are low or
depleted, the pager’s range may be reduced or the pager may
not correctly receive pages.
Alarm Pages
u The pager must be turned on to receive pages. Do not turn the
pager off at any time when being used for alarm notification.
Doing so may result in failure to receive notice of a patient
alarm.
Alarm Page Event Levels
Alarm pages are prioritized for four (4) event levels: 4=immedi-
ate, 3=high, 2=medium, 1=low.
Initial Alarm Messages with a 4 priority are sent to all pagers in
the system. Messages with priority 1, 2, or 3 are sent to as-
signed pager(s) only. Reminder Pages are sent to all pagers in
the system regardless of priority level.
