Servo - CareFusion LTV 1200 Service Manual

Servo

The Servo feature allows you to verify certain ventilator functions. When SERVO is on, the
ventilator continuously delivers gas according to the highlighted settings. Gas may be
delivered by:

turbine speed and flow valve step position

turbine speed and flow in Lpm
SERVO is used to check ventilator operation or diagnose problems by setting specific
conditions on the ventilator and monitoring the system either externally (e.g. with a flow
meter or pressure gauge) or internally (by using the monitored values under the RT XDCR
DATA menu). For example, delivered flow can be verified
24
Lpm and connecting a flow meter to the patient wye. In addition, the monitored flow (FTx)
and other data can be checked under the RT XDCR DATA menu. The servo menu is set up
as follows:
