Altitude
The User Configuration screen in the Diagnostic Mode is used to input the
altitude of the location of the ventilator. To enter Diagnostic Mode, follow the
instructions “Entering Diagnostic Mode” on page 5-6. At Figure 5-5 select
USER CONFIG and the screen in Figure 5-10 appears. Pressing the ALTITUDE
button enables you to set the altitude to that of the present geographical
location of the ventilator. This factor ensures a more accurate tidal volume
delivery.
Setting Altitude
To adjust the altitude:
1. Verify the altitude using an altimeter, if available, or estimate the
altitude in feet (or meters) above sea level.
2. Press the ALTITUDE button.
3. When the window insert appears, select either feet or meters. Press
the INCREASE or DECREASE button, or rotate the control knob, to
change the value. The longer the increase and decrease are touched,
the faster the value will change.
