4.11.4 Respiration rate alarms
Alarm Code Cause Remedy
RR out of range
P.ETCO201
• Respiration rate out of set
alarmlimits.
Check patient
Check narrow/wide etCO2 alarm limit and
adjust it if necessary.
Check ventilation settings
Apnoea
P.ETCO202
• Apnoea out of set alarm limits.
Check patient
Check narrow/wide etCO2 alarm limit and
adjust it if necessary.
Check ventilation settings
CO2 out of range
P.ETCO203
• ETCO2 is out of set alarm limits.
Check patient
Check narrow/wide etCO2 alarm limit and
adjust it if necessary.
Check ventilation settings
CO2 calibration required
I.ETCO201
• An offset in gas readings is dis-
covered
Perform zeroing
Check Sensor
T.ETCO201
• No Sensor connected, defective
cable
Connect sensor, check cable
Zeroing in progress
T.ETCO202
• Zeroing process started
Wait till zeroing process ends
Sampling line clogged
T.ETCO207
• Indicates sampling line occlusion. Replace sampling line
No sampling line
T.ETCO208
• Indicates that a sampling line
needs to be fitted.
Check if IRMA CO2 adapter is properly
connected
Internal O2 port failure
T.ETCO209
• Sensor failure If persistent, replace sensor
Internal temp out of range
T.ETCO214
• Temperature Sensor to hight/low Check standard operating condition if
normal:
Replace sensor
Ambient pressure out of
range
T.ETCO215
• Pressure to high/low Check standard operating condition if
normal:
Replace sensor
Inaccurate zero reference
T.ETCO216
• This alarm is due to Zeroing
required message from the probe.
Check standard CO2 condition if normal:
Perform zeroing
Software error
T.ETCO218
• Sensor failure Check sensor, replace sensor
Hardware error
T.ETCO219
• Sensor failure Check sensor, replace sensor
Motor speed out of bounds
T.ETCO220
• Sensor failure Check sensor, replace sensor
Factory calibration lost
T.ETCO221
• Sensor failure Check sensor, replace sensor
