16.4 CO
2
Measurement Procedures
Based on different CO
2
modules used, determine if it is necessary to set such menu items as
“Oxygen Compensation”, “Balancing Gas”, “Altitude” and “Atmospheric Pressure” etc for the
instrument. When an ISA™ sidestream analyzer (ISA CO
2
(CO
2
) CAT. NO. 800101) produced by
the PHASEIN company is used, if there are no such settings as altitude and atmospheric pressure
etc, it means that such functions have been carried by the module itself, need not to be set
manually. Please refer to the instruction manual coming with the module.
If you need the CO
2
alarm message function, you can set this function in “CO
2
Settings”.
16.4.1 Measuring Procedure of RESPIRONICS Branded
Mainstream and Sidestream Modules
The RESPIRONICS branded sidestream analyzer operating procedure is roughly the same as the
mainstream analyzer operating procedure; please refer to the sidestream analyzer operating
procedure for the mainstream analyzer operating procedure.
(1) Start the host monitoring equipment (if a minihost is used, please start the minihost
monitoring equipment at the same time).
(2) Or insert the CO
2
plug-in module into the host monitoring equipment; the indicator of the
CO
2
plug-in module will illuminate, which means that the module has been successfully
connected to the host monitoring equipment; otherwise, please reinsert the CO
2
plug-in
module.
(3) Make connections according to the CO
2
module type or Figure 15-4 or Figure 15-5, and
connect the CO
2
module interface cable to the CO
2
interface of the CO
2
plug-in module or
the minihost.
