AVEA ventilator systems
Flow Correction
Flow Correction allows for flow correction to BTPS (Body Temperature Pressure Saturated or ATPD (Ambient
Temperature Pressure Dry). Default position is BTPS and should be used for all clinical applications.
ILV Mode
To enable Independent Lung Ventilation and define the Master and Slave ventilators, access the Utilities screen
•
from the screens menu (Figure 2–32). ILV requires the use of a specially configured accessory cable kit
(part number 16246), which is available from CareFusion.
With both ventilators turned off, connect the ILV cable PN 16124 to the analog port of each ventilator.
•
Turn on the ventilator to be designated as the "Slave".
•
Adjust all primary and advances settings as desired.
•
Power up the "Master" ventilator.
•
Select "Master" from the Utilities screen.
•
Adjust all primary and advanced settings as desired.
•
Connect the patient.

Note:
Ventilation will not begin until the Master ventilator has been turned on.
Each ventilator maintains independent settings for F

Confirm alarm settings on each ventilator. Each ventilator will alarm independently based on alarm settings established
for that particular ventilator.
Apnea ventilation on the Slave ventilator is driven by the apnea ventilation rate of the Master ventilator only.
Should the ventilators become disconnected during ILV, only the Master ventilator will alarm for the ILV Disconnect
condition. The Slave ventilator will alarm for Apnea and begin apnea ventilation at its own active settings.
WARNING
NOT
DO
attempt to connect a standard DB-25 cable to this receptacle. This could cause damage to the
ventilator. A specially configured cable is required for ALL features associated with this connector. Contact
Technical Support.
Setting up Independent Lung Ventilation (ILV)
The AVEA has a 25 pin receptacle on the rear panel (Figure 2–33) to allow for Independent Lung Ventilation (ILV) .with
another AVEA. The output for ILV provides a 5VDC logic signal synchronized to the breath phase of the master
ventilator. Table 2–1 at the end of this section details the relevant pins for the signals carried by this connector.
Note:
This connector also carries the Analog Input and the Analog Output signals. Refer to Appendix B Specifications for
