OXYGEN WARNINGS IN THE NITROX MODE

• the OLF bar graph reaches 80%. The segments exceeding the 80% limit

start to blink (Fig. 3.23)

• the OLF bar graph reaches 100%.

The blinking of the segments exceeding 80% will stop, when the OLF is not
loading anymore. At that point the PO

is less than 0.5 bar.

Continuous beeps for 3 minutes and the backlight for 5 seconds, occur when:
