If there is interference with the INOmax DS
IR
/INOmeter communication, the cylinder icon on the user screen
will not be displayed and a “Cylinder Not Detected” alarm will activate if there is a set INOMAX dose.
Test results have demonstrated susceptibility to unintended infrared energy from artificial light sources. Most
notably, various compact fluorescent lighting fixtures that focus or reflect light, increasing the light intensity in
the vicinity of the INOmax DS
IR
cart, could affect INOmeter communications.
If external light interference occurs, we recommend taking the following actions:
• Move the interfering light source
• Move the INOmax DS
IR
cart to reduce the high intensity light in the area of the INOmeter
• Shield the INOmeter from the suspect light source
If the actions listed above do not remedy this issue, the transport regulator/cap assembly may be utilized.

External Light Interference
Caution:
High frequency and/or high intensity light emission, in the area of the INOmeter, may interfere
with communication between the INOmax DS
IR
and the INOmeter on the INOMAX cylinder.
