BIS™ Advance Monitor
Indicator Meaning
Medium Priority alarm is enabled and will provide audible and
visual indicators. If all alarms are silenced, an enabled alarm will
still show visual indicators and be recorded in the case records,
but will not provide an audible indicator.
Medium Priority alarm is disabled. There will be no record of
alarms in case records, and neither audible nor visual indicators
will be provided.
In addition to the numeric panel display for the BIS, SR, SEF and SQI alarms, all alarm
messages (both alarms that warrant a display in the numeric panel and those that do
not) will appear in the alarm message bar at the top of the screen as long as they are
active (all alarms are periodic alarms) with the appropriate alarm indicator (High
Priority Enabled or Medium Priority Enabled, as relevant). If there is more than one
alarm occurring at the same time, the system will display the highest priority level
alarm message in the alarm message bar.
In case of multiple alarms in the highest priority level, the system shall toggle
between all the alarms in that level, displaying each message in turn. If there are
multiple alarms in high, medium and low levels, the system shall toggle only the high
alarms; the medium and low alarms can be viewed using the alarms list.
The alarms list is a list of current alarms (of all priority levels) that will appear if more
than one alarm is currently active. To view the alarms list, click on the arrow at the left
side of the alarm bar. Reference Figure 55. Alarms List on page 166.
An example of a screen with an active alarm appears in Figure 54. Home Screen with
Active Alarm, below.
