In the upper side are displayed the measured parameters: accepted
tolerance +/- 10% of set value.
In the lower side are displayed the set parameters.
Before checking the parameters, leave the anaesthesia unit in
operation for at least 10 minutes.
This time allows to the anaesthesia unit to operate at full.
If they measured values differ from set value of more than 15-20%,
repeat the flow sensor "TEST ON DEMAND" procedure (see
previous cfr.).
WARNING! ! Risk of injuries for the patient
All the pictures and the examples shown in the present chapter have
the mere purpose of being an example and they do not make any
reference to real clinical cases.
To perform the preliminary tests on lung ventilator alarms it is
necessary to have knowledge of the keypad and alarm logic
operation (see cf. 5 and/or cfr. 8).
The choice of the entries needed to modify the alarms activation
limits, is made by setting of values through the MENU.
Through the MENU function, verify the alarm setting and eventually
vary the limit (see cfr 5. and/or cfr. 9).
For additional information on alarm operation logic consult cfr. 8.
