8.1.2 MANUAL FLOW SENSOR CALIBRATION
1.
Connect the flow sensor, airflow resistor, adapter and TRENDvent (see Figure 15 on page 26).
2. Activate the Clinic mode.
3. Activate the Service screen using the or cursor key.
4. Select “Flow sensor calibration” using the cursor key or touch wheel.
5. Press the OK button.
6. Enter the PIN code 1302 using the cursor key or touch wheel. Pressing the Ok button switches
to the next number, respectively.
7.
The flow sensor calibration is performed at 0, 20, 40, 60, 80, 100, 120 and 160 l/min. Pressing
the esc button aborts the flow sensor calibration.
