 Non-latched 

Latched

 means that in an alarm state, the beacon will 

continue flashing when the Accept/Reset button is 
pressed, and will only stop flashing when the alarm is 
cleared and the Accept/Reset button is pressed again.

  

Non-latched

 means that the beacon will continue 

flashing when the Accept/Reset button is pressed, but 
stop automatically when non-latching alarms have 
reset.

 word is required to enter this mode, see section 3.7 for details.)

Forces level 1, 2 relays for the selected channel. 
The channel warning symbol 

 will show. 

Contact orientation will depend on whether the relay 
is configured as normally energised or de-energised.
Press Back to exit, the relay will return to its normal 
state.

Required for RS-485 digital communications only, 
any address in the range can be chosen. If multiple 
units are connected on an addressable loop to a 
'Master' controller, each Gasmaster must have a dif-
ferent address.

Describes the required RS-485 communications 
parameters; Gasmaster is factory set to 2 stop bit.

Allows a system name to be entered which will be 
shown on the Gasmaster display when the appropri-
ate mode is selected (see section 3.4). Use the Up 
and Down buttons to enter required alpha-numeric 
characters and press Continue to accept.

No alarms will be activated on Gasmaster. Use to test 
remote displays.
Press Back to exit, the input will return to its normal 
state.
