sensor
• When the message “CO2 calibration is required” is displayed
• When an offset in gas readings is discovered (0-offset)
Zeroing procedure 1. Select the menu CO
2
> ETCO
2
and then the menu item “Perform zeroing”. The
green LED on the ISA sensor is blinking and the Zeroing process is displayed
on the DEFIGARD/PHYSIOGARD Touch 7.
2. When the green LED on the sensor stops blinking, the calibration is finished.
3. Check the etCO
2
curve in the display to see if the connections have been made
correctly and if the etCO
2
value is in the expected range. The curve rises during
expiration.

 Incorrect zero adjustment leads to erroneous measurement results.
 Therefore, make sure that the calibration is performed in a well-ventilated room.
Avoid breathing near the gas analyser before or during the calibration.
 If the ISA gas analyser is stowed in the transport bag, ensure good ventilation of
the bag or check that the gas exhaust is connected before calibration.
• The ISA sidestream gas analyser performs zeroing automatically by switching the
gas sampling from the respiratory circuit to ambient air. The automatic zeroing is
performed after startup and 1 to 3 times per day and it takes less than 3 seconds.
• During zeroing, if ISA’s exhaust gas is returned to the patient circuit, the returned
gas level will be different from the gas level at the sampling site.
