detection to com-
pensate for expired and inspired anesthetic agents in the patient’s
air supply. Failure to compensate for anesthetic agents results in
inaccurate measurement values. Available compensation settings
are:
! 0% to 20%, in increments of 1% (default 0%).

cally adjusts to an appropriate value. However, if you set the
Inspired field, the Expired field does not change.
