Messages at the Host Monitor
Caution:
Status messages indicate problems or conditions that may affect accurate monitoring
values. Do not ignore these messages. Correct any fault before continuing.
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.
•LEADS OFF
• 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.
When a status message appears, the saturation value and pulse rate immediately change to ???.
