11.6 ECG Alarm Information and Prompt
Alarm Message
Alarms occurring in the process of ECG measurement have two types: physiological alarm
and technical alarm. Prompt message may also appear in the mean time. For the audio and
visual features during the appearance of these alarms and prompt messages in the process of
ECG measurement, please refer to the related description in Chapter Alarm. On the screen,
physiological alarm messages and general prompt messages (general alarms) are all
displayed in the Alarm Area while technical alarms and prompt messages unable to trigger
alarms are displayed in the Message Area. This section does not introduce Arr. and ST
analysis.
When the alarm switches are set to ON in relevant menus, the physiological alarms caused
by the parameter exceeding the alarm limit may possibly trigger the recorder to automatically
output alarm information including parameter value and corresponding waveform.
Tables below list out various alarms that may occur during the measurement.
