Query
Guidance
1
I’m new to these
systems
–
what do they
do?
Please read through the introduction in Section 5 to get an
overview, then perhaps come back to this table for further
guidance.
2
I’ve been
given the job
of installing this system
–
what do I have to do?
There are generally 3 phases to installation. You’ll have to
mechanically install the system (Section 6.2) make all of
the necessary electrical connections (Section 6.3), and then
make the necessary gas connections where appropriate
(Section 6.4). When you are ready to switch on and test,
come back to this table for further guidance.

I’m ready to switch on
for the 1
st
time. Where
should I start?
First question would be whether all of the wiring is correct
or not. If you haven’t checked your wirin
g, it is worth
checking first that everything appears to be OK. The
system is fairly robust in the event of something being
wrong, but
it’s
always best to be sure !
When you are ready to switch on, read through Section 7 .
If you have problems, refer to the suggestions in Section
11. If you are still puzzled, contact Analox to help you
through your problem.

Everything switches on
OK - what about
checking/calibration?
You’ll need access to some calibration gas which has a
known content of oxygen, carbon dioxide etc.
When any of the sensors are exposed to a known level of
gas etc, you just need to check that the measured reading
is within the tolerance (refer Section 15) allowed by the
system. If its not, then you’ll need to calibrate the system
(see the item below)
5
How do I calibrate the
system?
Calibration is detailed for each of the sensor types in
Section 8.4
. Please don’t attempt calibration unless you
have suitable calibration equipment
–
cal gas, flow adaptors
etc.
You’ll need to understand
the calibration menus
(Section 8.4 ) to perform calibration. If you are at all unsure
about what to do, please contact Analox for advice
6
The system’s up and
running
–
how do I
change alarm settings?
The alarm functions are described in Section 7.4, and the
menu system for the alarms is described in Section 8.3.
Don’t interfere with the alarm settings unless you have a
good appreciation of the significance of the settings. If for
instance you set the low oxygen alarm at a level well below
normal life-support use, then you will effectively have
disabled the low oxygen alarm. Be warned
–
take care and
set up sensible alarm limits. The alarm settings are
generally shown on the main display to help you avoid
making mistakes.
