Parameters setup
Use the Parameters Setup menu to change the monitoring settings
of the data source, CO2, O2, agent, and spirometry. Push the
Main
Menu
key. Select Parameters Setup.
Data source Several monitoring parameters can be obtained from the ventilator or
the airway module. Information that is retrieved from the airway
module is identified with the module data indicator.
Figure 6-3 • Airway module data indicator
Set the Data Source to Patient or Vent to select the primary source
for information. If Patient is selected, the airway module will be the
first source for information. If Vent is selected, the internal sensors of
the ventilator will be the first source for information.
When setting the airway module as the data source, make sure that a
D-lite or Pedi-lite sensor is properly connected on the airway module.
If the sensor is not properly connected, but the airway module is
installed, the waveform shows no flow. The gas monitor samples and
displays room air.
If information is not available through the airway module, information
comes from the internal ventilator sensors. If the internal ventilator
sensor readings disagree with the airway module sensor readings,
the associated alarm occurs.
CO2 setup Change the size of the CO2 waveform by changing the scale height.
The scale units (%, kPa, and mmHg) are set by the Super User.
Select CO2 Alarm or Resp Rate Alarm to access and change the
alarm limits for the corresponding alarm.
O2 setup Select O2 Alarm to access and change the O2 alarm limits.
Agent setup Change the size of the agent waveform by changing the scale height.
Select Agent Alarm to access and change the agent alarm limits.
Spirometry setup Change the size of the Paw and Flow waveforms by changing the
corresponding scale heights. Select Paw Alarm or MVexp Alarm to
access and change the alarm limits for the corresponding alarm.
