How do I read a TagAlert monitor?
If there is an “OK” (not blackened) visible in the window, the unit is running and taking temperatures, and an alarm has not been triggered. If the “OK” is within a black box and numbers are visible in the window, then an alarm has been triggered. Press the Start button to determine which alarm triggered first (there are a maximum of four alarms that can trigger, depending on the unit’s programming). The alarm that triggered first will flash on the LCD for four seconds (e.g. if “2” flashes for four seconds, then Alarm 2 triggered first). The LCD will clear, and the next number that appears indicates the day of the trip during which the alarm was triggered. If more than one number flashes, the numbers should be added to determine the day on which the alarm was triggered (e.g. if a “2” and a “4” appear, then the alarm was triggered on the sixth day of the trip). After two seconds, the LCD will then flash numbers representing the three-hour window during which the alarm was triggered.
