Messages at the Host Monitor
When a status message appears, the saturation value and pulse rate
immediately change to ???. An alarm may occur if your module is
configured to do so. Depending on the configuration and
option purchased, this alarm may not occur until after the message
alarm delay time has elapsed.
Telemetry products use different text for SpO
2
status messages
than non-telemetry products. Telemetry products also show status
messages within the ECG display zone, therefore, the ECG alarm
messages that follow take priority over other SpO
2
messages.

• NOISY SIGNAL
• ECG ALARMS SUSPENDED
Refer to the customer documentation for your monitor for complete
information on potential status messages which may appear at a
host monitor that is configured with a 96281-A, 96281-B, 96281-C
telemetry transmitter.
