CFM Output
The recommended method to download CFM data files is to use the simplified Export Data function (see
Export Data on page 88.), which assigns headings to all CFM measurements and calculation phases.
Unlike CIRAS-2 gas exchange data, raw CFM data (.dat) files are not written to output with headings.
CFM data files are complex, and can be difficult to interpret without help. In the CIRAS menu go to Help -
Add-On Modules - CFM (green link) - CFM data (click open) - CFM Data Files for a full description of
the CFM data structure. These Help Files are only accessible through the computer version of RCS, not
on the UI.
