Appendix A: Operation with Root
Overview
Radius PCG computes and analyzes End-tidal Carbon Dioxide (EtCO
2
), Fractional concentration of inspired Carbon
Dioxide
(FiCO
2
)* and Respiration Rate (RR) based on the samples gathered from Radius PCG's breathing circuit, via
the airway adapter. The Bluetooth connection allows the Radius PCG parameters to display on Root in the
Capnography
window.
* FiCO
2
does not display on the Radius PCG device, FiCO
2
only displays on Root.
Setting Up
Pairing Radius PCG to Root
Upon successful pairing of Radius PCG to Root, capnography measurements collected using the Radius PCG
Capnograph display on both devices. On Root, the data is displayed in the Capnography window on the Main Screen of
Root. See
Capnography Window
on page 71.
Note:
Bluetooth functionality is implemented differently by the various connected-device manufacturers and
incompatibility between the Radius PCG and your external device may occur.
Note:
Radius PCG can be paired to Root while an ISA Sidestream Gas Analyzer is connected to Root through the
MOC-9 connection, however, the
Unable to handle Capnography channel on Bluetooth
message displays, and the
Capnography
window is populated from the ISA Sidestream Gas Analyzer. See
Troubleshooting Radius PCG
on page
41.
To pair Radius PCG with Root:
1.
Press the On Button to turn on Radius PCG. See
Features
on page 20.
2.
On Root, at the bottom right corner of the Main Screen, press the
Main Menu
icon
.
