24.1.6. The menu item 'Flame monitoring'
Right next to the electrodes for the ignition of the flame another electrode has been installed which is
used to measure the ionization of the flame. A flame is so to speak electrically conductive and this
physical phenomenon is utilized by the electronic circuits of the G-Flame to detect if the flame is
burning or not.
Flame
monitoring: On
Here the shutoff of the flame effect and of the fuel valves if the flame is not
burning is enabled. If no flame is detected for more than one second the
valves are closed automatically. The device is terminating the fuel supply
for this firing command.
Flame
monitoring: Off
With this setting the results of the ionization measurement will be ignored.
Note: With every new firing command another attempt will be made to ignite the flame and in this
process the fuel valves will be opened for a maximum time of one second. If no flame can be ignited
several times one after another you should disable the G-Flame for the reasons of safety either by
using the emergency-off input or the hazard zones (Advanced wireless module required for this) to
prevent that an unnecessary amount of unburned fuel is set free.
Attention: For the reasons of safety you should generally enable the ionization measurement.
24.1.7. The menu item 'Acoustic Signals'
This menu item switches the acoustic signals of the device on or off. Beep tones etc. may be
disturbing on theatre stages and in this case it is meaningful to disable the sounds.
Please note that there will be no acoustic signals at all if the sounds are turned off, even no warning
signal if the battery needs recharging.
Acoustic
Signals: On
In this example the acoustic signals are enabled.
24.1.8. The menu item 'LCD Backlight'
This text for example is being displayed:
LCD Backlight:
auto & dimmed
The display backlight is turned on automatically as soon as the menu is
called up or messages are being displayed. The display is illuminated
slightly (dimmed) in all other cases. That enables you to read the display
content in darkness without any further action required. The power
consumption for this slight permanent illumination is negligible.
LCD Backlight:
auto & off
If you choose this setting the display backlight is completely turned off as
soon as the device is not in the menu or if there is no message.
This is preferable in some applications where the slight illumination of the
display could be disturbing.
LCD Backlight:
always off
With this setting the display backlight is off all the time.
