CONFIRMATION TONES

The confirmation tones are initiated to confirm system related actions that may or may not have been invoked by the user. These tones consist of a sound that indicates when the device begins its power-up sequence, a sound that indicates when the device begins its power-down sequence, an information notice that is
offered to the operator of a condition that is not of critical value and will not effect system performance or the patient, and an indication that a patient data set has been permanently captured.

NAVIGATION TONES

The navigation tones are initiated to provide aural acknowledgment when a user interacts with navigation elements on the device touch-screen. These consist of a general-purpose button tap, a sound that indicates a user has switched the view state for a given vitals module, and a sound that indicates when a user interacts
with key control buttons.

NIBP

The NIBP (Non-Invasive Blood Pressure) tones are used to indicate various state changes related to the blood pressure measurement. Specifically, the tones indicate that a blood pressure reading has been initiated and that blood pressure reading has been completed.
 Start NIBP
 Stop NIBP
SURETEMP

The SureTemp tones are used to indicate various state changes related to the SureTemp thermometry. Specifically, each tone indicates that the SureTemp is ready to take a temperature measurement, the SureTemp has acquired a temperature reading, and that the SureTemp device has been entered into direct
monitoring mode rather than spot vital mode.

PULSE TONE

A pulse tone is initiated in coincidence with a patient’s heart rate as detected by a Nellcor oximeter. Nellcor oximeters implement variable pitch pulse tone each time they beep on a qualified pulse. The pitch (frequency) of the pulse tone varies with oxygen saturation level for every percentage value between 100-60.
 Pulse Tone [ 100% SpO2 ]
 Pulse Tone [ 80% SpO2 ]
 Pulse Tone [ 60% SpO2 ]
ALARM PULSE

The alarms set is the most critical and strictly regulated set of tones on the device. Alarm tones are initiated whenever conditions occur that meet specific risk criteria established by the clinician for the monitoring device.
Each auditory alarm signal consists of a collection of individual pulses in a specified pattern referred to as a burst. Both the harmonic content of the pulses and the burst pattern in which they occur regulated (ISO 60601-1-8).
 Alarm Pulse Low
 Alarm Pulse Medium
 Alarm Pulse High
