Using the RespSense II Monitor
Calibration Screen
This screen is accessed through the Configuration Menu (see Access the Configuration Menu ).
Calibration Procedure
The monitor has a built-in zero-point calibration function for CO
2
. Perform the calibration
procedure at least every 6 months, or if the baseline of the CO
2
graph is elevated.
The calibration apparatus (see Accessories ) is reusable for approximately 100 times. When the
pellets start to turn purple they cannot absorb any more CO
2
and the calibration apparatus must
be replaced. Dispose of the calibration apparatus in accordance with your local, state, or national
regulations concerning waste materials.
1. Attach a calibration apparatus to the moisture trap.
2. Press
On/Standby to turn on the monitor.

7. Press OK to exit the Configuration Menu.
8. Disconnect the calibration apparatus.
9. Verify calibration:
a. Connect the gas valve, which is already equipped with a T-connector, to a gas bottle
containing 5 Vol% of CO
2
(verifying gas) and the monitor.
b. Verify that the gas valve needle is in the green zone of the dial indicator. If the gas valve
needle is in the red zone, the CO
2
tank is empty and should be replaced.
