NOTE:
1 If Compensate item is not correctly set as per the operation conditions, the result will
be far from the actual value, thus leading to severe misdiagnosis.
2 The default value of Water Vapor Compensate is on. Turn it off when measuring dry
gas, such as when performing regular maintenance or measurement validation by
using dry calibrated gas.
3 The default of BTPS is on. Turn it on when measuring the VA saturated “damp” gas
at the body temperature and ambient pressure and turn it off when measuring the
“dry” gas at the ambient temperature and pressure.
4 Operate by strictly observing the Compensate operation method.
5 The standard barometric pressure is 760 mmHg, O
2
concentration is about 16%.
6 If the ANE AGENT, O
2
COMPENS, BALAN GAS are set incorrectly, the measure
readings will deviate from the reality, leads to misdiagnosis.
7 The ZERO CAL needs about 20 seconds. During this period, you’d better not do
other operations, such as respiration measuring. Or the zero calibration will fail, and
you should do calibration operation again.

Corrections
Temperature, water vapor in the patient’s breath, barometric pressure, and the proportions of O

,
N
2
O and Helium in the mixture all influence CO
2
absorption. If values seem inaccurately high or
low, check that the monitor is using the appropriate corrections.
For the EDAN sidestream module, the following items are available in the CO

COMPENS, ANE AGENT, WATERVAPOR,
and PUMP RATE. The concentration of compensated gas should be set based on the current gas
concentration which is supplied for patient. As for O
2
and N
2
O, Make the supplied gas
concentration multiply to its volume to get the concentration. For instance, supply 100% O
2
, and
its volume is 60%, then O
2
compensation is: 100%*60%=60%. AG concentration is decided by
anaesthesia apparatus.
