NOTE
As required by the relevant rules and regulations, carbon dioxide concentration
should be monitored when the equipment is used on the patient. If your ventilator
is not configured with such monitoring function, use a monitor which complies
with the relevant international rules and regulations for carbon dioxide
concentration monitoring.
7.2 Prepare to Measure CO2
1. Attach the water trap to the water trap fixer and then connect the CO2 components as
shown below.
2. By default, the CO2 module is in measure mode. When the CO2 module is connected,
the [CO2 Startup] message is displayed on the screen.
3. After start-up is finished, the [CO2 Warmup] message is displayed. The CO2 module is
in ISO accuracy mode. If you perform CO
2
measurements during warm-up, the
measurement accuracy may be compromised.
4. After warm-up is finished, the CO2 module enters full accuracy mode.
It needs about 2 minutes after powering on the ventilator till the point that the CO2 module
enters full accuracy mode.
