Simulator
Capnograph and ventilator option
Simulators can have, as an option, outputs to simulate a capnograph and a ventilator.
In that case, in addition to ECG and temperature outputs the simulator will have the
following connections and controls:
SYNC OUT
SERIAL OUT
CAP OUT
CAP AMPLITUDE pot
TIDAL VOLUME
CAL
OUTPUT SCALE
To use the simulator, connect the three outputs to the Capnograph/Ventilator Interface
Module. Set the CAL switch to the normal position. Set the OUTPUT SCALE to agree
with the input chosen on the Capnograph/Ventilator Interface Module.
The respiration rate is controlled from the respiration portion of the simulator. The
respiration width control sets the I/E ratio. The other two parameters end-tidal CO
tidal volume are set by the pots listed above.
Setting the CAL switch to the 10% CAL position will give a flat line at 10%.
