[Histonet] Audible alarm

[Rene J Buesa]

The best option is to have a dedicated power supply connected to your hospital emergency generator.
It will have to fail the electricity from the grid and from the hospital to produce what you describe, which is very unlikely.

Hello to all in histoland.  We recently had a issue withour tissue
processor in regards to a power outage.  Once the popwer came back on
the processor was in a power out stage and did not process our blocks.
Does any one have an external alarm attached to their tissue processor
that would alarm in another area when a problem occurs or a automatic
dialer that would start calling people.  We are using a UPS back up
power box on both of our processors right now.  I'm trying to see which
would be the best way to resolve this issue.  Any help in this matter
will be greatly appreciated.
