Activation

Activating the Monitor

To activate the monitor, press and hold the [Function key] for 3 seconds. While the

key is depressed, a 3-second count-up timer will be displayed. Once the counter

reaches three (3), release the [Function key].

The monitor will perform the following startup sequence.

The unit will display the gas type, firmware version, display/alarm test, followed by a

10-second stabilization countdown. Once the countdown is complete, the monitor

defaults to Measure- ment mode, displaying the current gas readings and the icon.

Sensor readings may drift during shipping. All newly purchased monitors should be

bump tested to a known concentration of gas before use.

User Interface

Display Modes

Measuring Mode is the default mode. Once the monitor is activated the meter will

continually display measured gas concentrations in real-time.

Basic Mode is an optional mode where the remaining sensor life will be

displayed if the detected gas levels are below the alarm threshold. The monitor will

display the active gas reading only after an alarm threshold has been exceeded.

Basic mode can only be enabled using the PM Link and software, or the Bump Test-

Calibration Station.

Menu Screens

From the Display mode screen, pressing the [Function key] will step to the next

screen. Note: If you do not press the [Function key] within 10 seconds, the display

reverts to the main screen.

Stealth Mode - Press the [Function key] to advance to Stealth Mode (if enabled).

Stealth is an optional setting that disables all audible, vibrating alarms and alarm

LEDs. When Stealth is enabled, an "StL" screen is added to the menu to indicate

that the audible, visual, and vibrating alarms are silenced.

User Interface Continued

Peak MIN - Press the [Function key] to advance to Peak MIN indicated by the MIN

icon on the display (O

only), with the numerical value displayed. The Peak MIN is the

lowest concentration of oxygen that the sensor has detected since the peaks were last

cleared.

Peak MAX - Press the [Function key] to advance to Peak MAX indicated by the MAX

icon on the display, with the peak max concentration displayed. The Peak MAX is the

highest concentration of gas that the sensor has detected since the peaks were last

cleared.

Clear Peaks - Press the [Function key] to advance to Clear Peaks indicated by "CLr"

on the display. To clear the peaks, press and hold the [Function key] for three seconds.

The unit will beep once, and the MIN/MAX icon will turn off.

Remaining Life - Press the [Function key] to advance to Remaining Life indicated by

one of three icons on the display. Remaining life is the amount of time left on the

monitor before End-of-Life. The remaining life is displayed in months, days, or hours

as indicated by the display icons.

Alarm 1 - Press the [Function key] to advance to Alarm Set Point 1 indicated by the 1

flag on the display. This is the first (low for O

) set point that activates the monitors

alarms. The unit will store this alarm data in event logging.

Alarm 2 - Press the [Function key] to advance to Alarm Set Point 2 indicated by the 2

flag on the display. This is the second (high for O

) set point that activates the monitors

alarms. The unit will store this alarm data in event logging.

Firmware - Press the [Function key] to advance to Firmware Version indicated by the

V icon on the display. This is the current firmware version that is loaded into the

monitor.

Calibration - Press the [Function key] to advance to Calibration indicated by the

calibration cylinder bottle icon on the display. The calibration gas concentration will be

displayed. See Calibration for more information on monitor calibration.

Bump Test

A bump test should be conducted before each day's use.

Ensure that you are in a clean environment before performing a Bump

Test. The monitor must be calibrated if it fails a Bump Test.

To perform a manual Bump Test: (without the Bump Test Reminder active)

Ensure that the sensor is reading zero (or 20.9% for Oxygen)

•

Attach the calibration (cal) cap on top of the sensor inlet

•

Connect the hose from the gas regulator of the calibration gas bottle to the cal cap.

Ensure the calibration gas and gas concentrations matches the sensor installed in the

instrument.

Access the Calibration menu (see section "Accessing Calibration Menu")

•

"CAL" and

the icon are displayed.

•

Press the [Function key] once and "CAL" and the icon will appear.

Press the [Function key] again "btS" will be displayed.

•

Press and hold the [Function key] for 5 seconds and "tSt" will be displayed

•

Turn on the gas regulator

•

Once gas is detected, "GAS" will be displayed

• After the test is passed, "SUC" and the

icon will appear on the display followed by

the alarm notification and "btS"

•

Once the test has passed, remove the calibration cap and turn off the calibration gas.

The monitor will default to the main screen after 20 seconds or you can manually exit

the calibration menu (see Exiting the Calibration Menu)

Allow a few minutes for the gas to dissipate

•

After the gas has dissipated from the sensor, clear the sensor Peak values

If the sensor fails the bump test, an "FA" message with the

Alarm and Alert indication chart

Calibration

To access the calibration menu:

• Press the [Function key] to navigate to the Calibration screen.

• While the Calibration screen is displayed, press and hold down the [Function key] for 5

seconds to access the Calibration mode.

Once the Calibration menu is accessed, "CAL" and

menu has four options:

• Fresh Air Calibration

• Span Calibration

• Bump Test

• ESC – Exit Calibration Mode

To exit the calibration menu:

• Press the [Function key] until ESC is displayed.

• Press and hold down the [Function] key for 5 seconds to access the Calibration mode.

• Press the [Function] key again to return to the Measurement screen.

Note:

If you don't press the [Function] key within 20 seconds, the display reverts to the main

screen.

Fresh

Air Calibration

Fresh Air Calibration must be performed in a clean environment that is free

from other gases (calibration is assumed to be performed in an environment

icon will briefly display

with an Oxygen concentration of 20.9% Vol.). Fresh Air Calibration should not

be performed in a confined space.

To Perform a Fresh Air calibration

• Access the Calibration menu

• "CAL" and the

• Press and hold the [Function] key to start the Fresh Air calibration.

• A ten second countdown will appear on the screen.

Note: press the [Function] key any time during the countdown to abort.

• Once the countdown is complete "CAL", the

indicating a successful Fresh Air Calibration.

Note: If you do not press the [Function] key within 20 seconds, the display reverts to

the main screen.

If Calibration fails, the

Span

Calibration

When performing a Span Calibration only use certified calibration gas at the

required concentration level. Do not use expired calibration gas.

To perform a Span calibration

• Access the Calibration menu

• "CAL" and the

• Press the [Function] key once and CAL and the icon will appear.

• Attach the calibration (cal) cap on top of the sensor inlet.

• Connect the hose from the gas regulator of the calibration gas bottle to the cal cap

• Press and hole the [Function] key for 5 seconds to start the Span calibration.

• When calibration starts, a 90-second countdown displays.

Note: The countdown is only 60 seconds for 0

• Turn on the calibration gas.

• Once completed, the

• The device will return to Measuring mode.

• Turn off the calibration gas and remove the calibration cap.

• Clear the peak values for the sensor.

All alarms are muted for approximately 10 minutes after a successful Span

calibration.

If the calibration fails, the

calibration is performed. If calibration continues to fail, contact the sales representatives or
