Averaging
Access the Averaging screen by pressing on the area around the Breaths and Averaging Time
fields or gear icon located at the bottom of the screen. Averaging can also be accessed through the
Menu by selecting Settings and then the Triggers and Averaging option.
Number of Breaths
This setting specifies the maximum number of breaths over which to average the breathing parameter
measurements. For example, if the number of breaths is set to 5, but only 3 breaths have been
detected so far, all 3 breaths will be used in calculating the breathing parameters. In the same
scenario, if 7 breaths have been detected, only the most recent 5 breaths would be used in the
calculations. To specify the number of breaths, touch the input field and enter a whole number ranging
from 1 to 10 breaths.
Time Average for Real-Time Values
The time average sets the rate at which real-time values are averaged and updated on the display. For
example, with a time average value of 0.5 second, the incoming data is averaged over a 0.5 second
period and updated on the display every 0.5 seconds. Real-time values include measurements for flow
rate, low pressure, high pressure, absolute pressure, oxygen concentration, and temperature. To
specify the time average, touch the input field and enter a value ranging from 0.5 to 10 seconds.

A configuration is a collection of Certifier settings that can be saved to internal memory and later
recalled. This allows you to save and use specific setups to test different equipment, to comply with
organizational test standards, or for personal preferences. Configurations record the measurements
and units selected, gas calibrations, gas conditions, triggers and averaging, and graph setup.
The active configuration is displayed at the bottom right of the Parameter and Graph screens.
Access the Configurations screen by pressing anywhere in the Configuration area in the bottom
right corner of the screen. Configurations can also be accessed through the Menu by selecting the
Configurations menu option.
