Error Messages
When error messages are displayed, the saturation value and pulse rate
immediately change to ??? and an alarm may occur if your module is configured
to do so. If it occurs, this alarm does not begin until after the message alarm delay
time has elapsed.
If your module has been configured for an alarm using the Module Configuration
Manager feature, the parameter key will flash red for high priority alarms or yellow
for medium and low priority alarms. Refer to Module Configuration Manager on
page 7-5 for more information.
Telemetry products use different text for their SpO
2
error messages than non-
telemetry products. Table 1 serves as a key for interpreting the telemetry
messages. Telemetry products also display their error messages within ECG’s
display zone, so the following ECG alarm messages take priority over other SpO
2
messages.
• LEADS OFF
• NOISY SIGNAL
• ECG ALARMS SUSPENDED
WARNING:
• Error messages indicate a problem or condition which may
affect accurate monitoring values. Do not ignore these
messages. Correct any fault before continuing.
