tcGas INOPs
CCO RECALIBRATE
Numeric is replaced by -?-
The most recent CCO or CCI calibration was made over 8 hours ago or the arterial pressure
measurement used for CCO calculation has been zeroed after the CCO calibration was performed.
You should recalibrate CCO or CCI with transpulmonary C.O. measurements at least every 8 hours or
when the hemodynamic condition of the patient has changed. The pressure measurement must be
zeroed before a CCO calibration.
CCO/Tbl NO TRANSD.

<tcGas Label> CAL FAILED
Numeric is replaced by -?-
INOP tone
A calibration failed. Check the calibration unit, gas pressure, and tubing connections, then restart the
calibration. If the calibration has failed more than once, remembrane the transducer and restart the
calibration. If this INOP persists, contact your service personnel.

REQUIRD
Numeric is replaced by -?-
INOP tone
Calibration is required before applying the transducer to the patient.
Insert a membraned transducer into the calibration chamber on the module, connect the calibration
unit to the calibration chamber, open the gas valve and start the calibration. If this INOP occurs
during a calibration, there may be a module or transducer malfunction: contact your service personnel.
