2.3.4 Calibration after bump fail
If any channel fails speedy bump or smart bump then Gas-Pro can be configured (via Portables-Pro)
to perform a ‘calibration after bump fail’ immediately after the test failure.
As this test immediately follows a speedy or smart bump, if ‘calibration after bump fail’ is configured
the speedy or smart bump test will need to undertaken with calibration quality gas.
i
Ensure the gas applied matches the configuration settings in the Gas-Pro or the test will
fail. This can be done via Portables-Pro.
i
Should a flammable sensor be fitted, check the label for the original calibration target gas.
2.3.4.1 Procedure
i
Calibration should only be performed with appropriately accurate gas.
•
If calibration is intended the instrument should have been zeroed manually within 15 minutes
prior to the calibration attempt.
• Following a bump test failure, leave the instrument in the Q-test module and the gas on.
• Wait for the calibration result screen indicated by the
or
.

•
The Gas-Pro then returns to normal operation.
During this process the new calibration values are stored to the instrument memory and the
calibration dates are advanced by the configured interval – commonly 1 month as the Gas-Pro has
not been through a formal service/calibration routine (dependant upon region/setting).
If the gas test calibration fails this may be indicative of a more serious sensor issue, including the
need to replace sensors. The instrument should then be serviced.
