In the main menu, you can optimize the unit's settings to
suit the particular operating conditions. The main menu
can be called up at any time using the "Main menu"
function button.
To navigate in the menu, you can use either the navigation
knob or the context-dependent function buttons on the
right of the display (see "5.1 Controls" on page 38).
When the "Activate automatic alarm limits" function is
activated, the unit automatically determines limits for the

measured at the moment when the function is activated

the current respiratory value, which should trigger an
alarm.
