GETTING STARTED
The
MH EDS O2D2 is designed to be used with MH Regulators. Pilots who intend to fly with the MH EDS O2D2 are advised
to familiarize themselves and their passenger with the system prior to using it. Four cannulas and two face masks are included
with the MH EDS O2D2 unit. The cannula may be used for flight operations up to 18,000 ft. Above 18,000 ft., a face mask
should be worn. A compatible face mask with a built-in microphone is available from Mountain High. (AMSKM-1100-01)

O2D2 with cannulas, regulator connection, regulator and cylinder
1. If
you have not already done so, fill your cylinder with Aviation
oxygen. (Many FBOs offer this service.)
2. Inventory
your system
(see photo)
and
read the front label
on the unit.
3. Per
the instructions provided with your cylinder and regulator,
attach the regulator to the cylinder and
hand tighten only
(DO NOT use a wrench or pliers—the “O” ring
seals the regulator to the cylinder, over tight-
ening will damage the regulator).
NOTE:
Pressure in the regulator must be released
before the regulator can be removed from
the cylinder.
4. Open
the battery cover on the back of the MH EDS-O2D2 unit,
install the 3 AA batteries (supplied) and replace the battery
cover.
(NOTE: Batteries fit tightly, handle with care.) See
next page for detailed instructions.

If
you are using the MH EDS-O2D2 with a Mountain High four
port regulator (FPR), locate the oxygen input tube (clear tube
with a short red tube on one end) and insert the
Red
tube
into the red “Oxygen In” connector on the MH EDS-O2D2 unit
until it stops (approx. 1/8 inch). Then connect the other end of
the tube to your regulator. If you are using a MH single port
regulator (XCR), use the tube that came with the regulator in
place of the tube that came with your MH EDS-O2D2.

.
Insert
the
Blue
end of the cannula or face mask tubing into the
BLUE
#1 Pilot “Out”
connector on the unit.
Always use the
#1 connector when only one (1) person will be using
the system.
For a second user, insert the BLUE end
of the cannula or face mask tubing into the BLUE #2
connector.
The Co-Pilot #2 connection becomes active when
inhalation is detected after a short period of inhalations.
CAUTION:
DO NOT pinch the Cannula or Facemask
tubing when inserting them into the BLUE “Out”
connectors)
. Use only the supplied MH EDS can-
nula as other cannulas may not work properly
with the MH EDS-O2D2. DO NOT lengthen or
shorten the cannula tube.
7.
Turn
the cylinder valve on.
8.
Push
the “+” power/control button on the MH EDS-O2D2 unit
once. This will turn the unit on and set it to “N” mode. A start-
up pulse of oxygen, Red light and beeper test will verify battery
power.
9.
Don
the cannula or face mask (make sure the face mask
seals against the skin) and take a breath. The bright green
LED under the #1 should illuminate, and a pulse of oxygen
should be delivered. Refer to the card that comes with the can-
nula and face mask for donning information.
10.
You are ready to fly.
