Alarms Alarm Overview There are three categories of alarms; Patient, Device, and System. The alarm level indicates the severity of the alarm. Level 1 alarms notify you about events that could lead to a security breach. Level 1 alarms are indicated by pop-up notifications that disappear after 30 seconds unless you click “View Alarm.” The alarm is displayed in the floorplan view. The floorplan view has priority over all other pages. Make sure you complete whatever you are working on before clicking on “View Alarm” because your work will not be saved. Level 2 alarms also notify you about events that could lead to a security breach but are more serious than the events that trigger a level 1 alarm. It is recommended that security protocols be followed. There are no pop-up notifications.
