ETPOINT
The incubator comes from the factory with the CO
2
setpoint set to Off. Set the setpoint percentage
to the gas concentration required by your study or production protocol.
Low CO
2
(LO)
When starting with no CO
2
in the chamber, the display will show “LO” until the incubator registers a
concentration greater than 0%. A few minutes of CO
2
injections may be required to build up a
sufficient gas concentration.
