Is the handset frozen or does it reach to button pushes??

Hey Joe,

Is weird because the sensors are brand new and the MV is working fine on sensor #1 and #2 but when I flush with oxygen the PO2 doesn't change keep showing 0.21 and the sensor #3 show me PO2 0.00 and no MV but on the primary display everything is fine, MV and PO2.
For me, looks like is the secondary electronic because if was the wires or sensors would show the problem on both handset and the sensors MV are fine.

Mike,
If you check the wiring under the bottom of the CPU and every thing is fine then the problem must be a software fault.

The cells are wired directly into the CPU, so if the fault was in the cell wiring then both hand sets would read the same.
I suggest you give Steve a call at ISC and talk him though the problem

Good luck.

That translates to me that if someone else did exactly what you did... What ever that was... They would have the same issue...

So... What did you do??
