Alarm message Default priority
Indication on
alarm reset
Cause and solution
SpO2/SpO2b Sensor Off Adjustable B The SpO
2
sensor has become detached from the
patient or the module. Check the sensor
connection. If the alarm persists, replace the
sensor.
SpO2/SpO2b No Sensor Low A The SpO
2
extension cable is detached from the
SpO
2
module, or the SpO
2
sensor is detached
from the SpO
2
extension cable. Check the SpO
2
cable and the sensor connection. If the alarm
persists, replace the sensor.
SpO2/SpO2b Excess Light Low C Ambient light is too strong. Move the sensor to a
place with lower level of ambient light or cover
the sensor to minimize the ambient light.
SpO2/SpO2b No Pulse Low C The SpO
2
sensor failed to obtain pulse signal.
Check the patient’s condition and replace the
sensor application site. If the alarm persists,
replace the sensor.
SpO2/SpO2b Sensor
Incompatible
