Getting Started Monitor Application
Mini-Alarm Tiles
Alarms in the Deferred Alarm Application Bar are represented by mini-alarm tiles (shown in
FIGURE 4-9). Patient level alarms appear in red or yellow depending on system configuration
settings. Technical alarms appear in blue. The mini-alarm tiles are sorted from highest to
lowest priority and each alarm priority is sorted by the most recently alarmed. Up to three (3)
columns of alarms may be displayed in the Deferred Alarm Application Bar. If more than
three columns are needed, the alarms will be opened in the Primary Alert view window. If an
alarm status is updated or a new alarm occurs, the mini-alarm tile flashes for five seconds.

Patient Level Mini-Alarm Tiles
Patient level mini-alarm tiles display the room name and bed number, event name
abbreviation, and the elapsed time since the event occurred. Patient level alarms initially
appear in the Alarm Alert view (FIGURE 4-4 on page 4-5) and can be transferred to the
Deferred Alarm Application Bar by selecting the DEFER button in the Alarm Alert view
window. When a Patient level alarm is deferred the alarm is automatically muted, which is
indicated by the icon (shown in FIGURE 4-9).
