CARDELL® Veterinary Monitors
PERMANENT AUDIO ALARM SILENCE
NOTE:
Enabling the Permanent Audio Silence mode can only be accomplished after all active alarm
conditions have been addressed. To clear an alarm, refer to Page 111, CLEARING ALARMS.
If the Permanent Audio Silence mode is selected in the Audio Silence portion of the Setup
menu, pressing the SILENCE/RESET pushbutton will deactivate the audio alarms. The
SILENCE visual indicator will flash at a rate of one (1) second “ON” and one (1) second “OFF”
and the message “Permanent” will be displayed in the Equipment Message Window section of
the display as a reminder.
NOTE:
The “Permanent” message will alternately be displayed with the monitor’s current operating
mode.
When enabled, the monitor will not alarm for patient related High and Low Alarms, NIBP
Application Error and Equipment Alarms. The monitor will alarm for Low Battery and Dead
Battery.
To re-activate the audio alarm, press the SILENCE/RESET pushbutton again. The visual
indicators will go out. Refer to Page 91, AUDIO ALARM SILENCE (SILENCE/RESET
Pushbutton) for more information.
BATTERY POWER
The CARDELL Monitor is equipped with an internal rechargeable battery. The battery is
charging whenever the monitor is plugged into the AC wall outlet. A Battery Power Visual
Indicator, located on the front panel, indicates the status condition of the monitor’s battery.
Batteries will self-discharge when they are not used. It is recommended that the battery be
maintained at full charge by leaving the monitor connected to the AC wall outlet whenever
possible.
The 7.2 Volt 3700 mAhr battery pack, when fully charged, is capable of running the monitor for
approximately four (4) hours.
NOTE:
Operating time on battery power is based on a Model 9403 monitor when the NIBP is set in the
5-Minute Automatic Mode.
BATTERY MESSAGES
When the message "Low Battery" appears in the Equipment Message Window section of the
display, at least thirty (30) minutes of battery operation remain and the monitor’s battery pack
should be charged as soon as possible.
