4. If the accuracy does not meet the 
requirement, perform calibration.   
Patient Circuit 
Leak 
Medium 
1. The Vte is smaller 
than Vti by 200 ml or 
by 50% for 30s 
consecutively. 
2. The Vti is smaller 
than Vt delivery in 
volume mode. 
3. The patient is not 
connected. 
1. Check whether the circuit and flow sensor 
are correctly connected.   
2. Check whether the sensor and Vt meet the 
accuracy requirement.   
3. Check whether a leak occurs on the circuit.   
CO2 Absorber 
Canister Not 
Locked 
High 
The CO2 absorber 
canister is not 
mounted. 
1. Mount the CO2 absorber canister. 
2. Check the cable connection between the 
CO2 absorber canister and VCM board. When 
necessary, replace the cable.   
3. If the problem persists, replace the switch on 
the CO2 absorber canister. 
4. If the problem persists, replace the VCM 
board.  
O2 Sensor 
Disconnected 
Low 
The O2 sensor is 
disconnected. 
1. Ensure that the cable of the O2 sensor is 
properly connected. 
2. On the [Calibrate] menu, check the output 
voltage of the O2 sensor. 
3. Replace the O2 sensor. 
Replace O2 
sensor 
Medium 
The O2 concentration 
is less than 5%. 
1. On the [Calibrate] menu, check the output 
voltage of the O2 sensor. 
2. Re-calibrate the O2 sensor.   
3. Replace the O2 sensor. 
Calibrate O2 
Sensor 
Low 
The O2 concentration 
is greater than 110% 
or ranges between 5% 
and 15% for 3s 
consecutively.  
1. Re-calibrate the O2 sensor.   
2. Replace the O2 sensor. 
Ventilator 
Comm Stop 
High 
The CPU board cannot 
communicate 
normally with the 
VCM board for 10s 
consecutively.  
1. Restart the anaesthesia machine. 
2. Reconnect the communication cable.   
3. If the problem persists, replace the VCM 
board.  
4. If the problem persists, replace the CPU 
board.  
Drive Gas 
Pressure Low 
High 
The drive gas pressure 
is low. 
1. Check whether the gas supply is normal.   
2. Short circuit the pressure switch. The alarm
