DATA ARCHIVE APPLICATIONS
VF8 DELTA/DELTA XL/KAPPA 1-25
Data Archive Applications
The monitor stores events, alarms and trends automatically or at the user’s request,
depending on the type of information. Some events are automatically recorded and
stored. Others can be stored manually by pressing the
Mark fixed key. The monitor
automatically stores alarm conditions and arrhythmia events that you have configured
for storage in the Alarm Limits table (see page 5-6) and in the Arrhythmia setup table
(see page 9-6).
You can access archived information in one or more of the following databases:
Trends
Calculations
Alarm history
Event recall
Each database indicates the time of the data capture and parameter values and/or
waveforms active at the time of capture. Trends, Calculations, and Alarm History are
discussed in the following chapters (Event Recall and Storage is explained later in this
section.):
Trends, see chapter 6. Stored events are marked with the time and date of
capture as follows:
— Trend table; an icon ( ) over the time line marks manually stored events
only. (Automatically stored alarms and arrhythmia calls are not marked in the
trend table.)
— Trend Graphs; a small yellow vertical line at the top of the screen marks
manually and automatically stored events.
Calculations; see chapter 16.
Alarm history; see chapter 5.
NOTE: You cannot disable event storage for asystole and ventricular fibrillation
events. The monitor stores these events automatically.
