Yellow Alarms
The following sections provide detailed information about Yellow Alarms, responding to alarming events,
and the the way the event should be cleared. Yellow Alarms are medium priority alarms. They are displayed
in the Alarm Message Box and the Event List sequentially as they occur. Yellow Alarms are displayed below
Red Alarms.
Check Transmitter Alarm (ICM Pendant)
A Check Transmitter alarm for the ICM Pendant occurs when the system is unable to locate the transmitter
within the required supervision time. It is important to note if the person to whom the pendant is assigned has
taken the pendant out of the area (i.e. weekend pass, doctor’s appointment). If the pendant is not out of the
area, locate the pendant and verify proper operation.
Multiple Check Transmitter alarms may also be an indication that Router coverage is inadequate. If problem
persist, contact your System Administrator or call RF Technologies Technical Support Team at (800) 669-
9946 or [phone].
To respond to a Check Transmitter Alarm
1. Always follow your facility’s policies/procedures to ensure patient safety.
2. From the Client computer, click anywhere in the Check Transmitter Alarm Message Box to access
the Event Information window.
3. Click Clear to clear the alarm.
NOTE: Check Transmitter alarms will repeat at each supervision check-in time as long
as the system is unable to locate the transmitter. If the transmitter is lost, stolen or does
not exist, remove the transmitter from the person to whom it is assigned.
NOTE: You can click Silence to stop the alarm sound at the Central Server or Client
computer. The alarm is silenced at that computer only, for the configured length of time;
however, the event still appears in the Event List. The next event automatically restarts
the alarm sound.
