Note:
Capnography requires either a proximal flow sensor or circuit compliance compensation to be active.
If CO
2
monitoring is enabled but a proximal flow sensor or circuit compliance compensation is not active, an alert dialog
box appears.

4. If volumetric capnography is required, add a proximal flow sensor or enable circuit compliance compensation (or do
both), and then re-enable CO
2
monitoring as described above; otherwise, only the PCO
2
waveform and End-tidal CO
2
monitor are available.
