The maximum reading the CO Check Pro can measure is 99 PPM. Any reading above that will be displayed as - - (which means it’s over the range). Colored lights are there to represent and provide a visual display of the resulting PPM reading.
CO is collected in the last portion of the breath (alveolar breath). The CO Check Pro will beep and display the final reading in PPM (parts million). By pressing the Select Function key , the reading scrolls to %COHb (carboxyhemoglobin).
