1. Connect the MICROSIM COS to the monitor under test,
using the correct interface cable.
2. Set the Computation Constant to 0.542 on the patient
monitor.
3. Turn the MICROSIM COS On.
4. Select the desired blood temperature, injectate temperature,
and CO rate settings as outlined in section 2.3.
5. Allow 10 seconds for the baseline to stabilize.
6. Press the Start button on the monitor under test.
7. Press Str (
