Immediately after warm-up a message appears and an audible alarm is sounded when the monitor’s 

internal Purge Air Bag is empty to fill in the Purge Air Bag press ENTER – see below message. 
The purge bag needs to be filled with fresh/clean air failure to do so can result in wrong ppm readings 

or Bag Fill Fault - error code <2000>. 
After the bag has been filled with air it will last for approximately 40 minutes of normal operation after 

that time the bag needs to be filled again, press the ENTER button to start the refill process ensure that 

it is filled with clean/fresh air. 
After the air bag has been filled successfully, the monitor starts or resumes normal operation by 

displaying the Data Display Screen Measure.

To access the Main Menu from the Data Display screen, press both the Keypad Left and Right buttons 

at the same time. Next, use the Keypad buttons to move the arrow (>) until it points to the desired 

function, and then press the 

ENTER

 button to select that function.

If a system malfunction occurs the front panel 

FAULT

 light will flash and the audible alarm, if activated 

will start beeping.

The 

FAULT

 light and audible alarm will automatically turn OFF after the cause of the fault has been 

eliminated.

Pressing the 

SILENCE

 button while a fault condition still exists causes the internal audible alarm to 

turn OFF for a period of time as set by the 

SILENCE

. The front panel 

FAULT

 light will continue to flash.

Once the 

FAULT

 function is selected on the 

Data Display

 press the 

ENTER

 button to select that 

function. 

FAULT

 menu will appear which contains records of the last 30 fault events. The most recent 

event is displayed when the Fault screen is first displayed. After 30 events have been recorded, the 

newest record overwrites the oldest. Each record lists an event’s numeric fault code plus the date and 

time at which the event occurred. If the fault is still present when the FAULTS function is selected, then 

the current cause of the fault is displayed If the cause of the fault has been cleared, then the Faults Log 

screen will show <0000> along with the date and time the fault was cleared, see fault table below for 

troubleshooting.

The cause of the fault is identified by a numeric fault code. To convert the fault code into a text 

description of the fault, first press the ENTER button and then use the Keypad buttons to scroll 

through the display until the text description of the fault appears. If the fault code is a combination of 

two or more faults, then continue to use the Keypad buttons until all fault text descriptions have been 

displayed. For example, the fault code <1800> represents the summary of both a Sample Flow <0800> 

and a Purge Flow <1000> fault as shown to the left.
