X2* After installing new controller PCB and /or user interface PCB, load ventilator software, perform real-time clock
calibration, calibrate ventilator, perform run-in, calibrate ventilator.
NOTE:
Replacing the controller PCB and/or user interface PCB clears the calibration tables. Perform the system
run-in once, between the two calibration procedures. (Do not perform system run-in before the first
calibration.)
