2.
“Refusal (Y/N)?” – The person blew with sufficient force to activate the audible tone at least
once during the three minute request period, but the sample did not meet the minimum
requirements of an adequate breath sample.
The operator must decide at this point whether the subject has, through some willful act,
refused to comply with instructions to provide an acceptable breath sample. If so, the operator
should indicate his selection by pressing “Y” on the instrument keyboard. The instrument will
display the
“Subject Test Refused” message.
If the operator has properly instructed the test subject on how to provide the breath sample,
and the person has provided a deliberate attempt to meet the requirements of the test, the
operator may choose to indicate a
“Deficient Sample” by pressing “N” on the instrument
keyboard to the “Refusal (Y/N)?” message. The instrument will display the “Deficient
Sample” message. By selecting a “Deficient Sample” , the operator has made the
determination that the test subject does not have the physical capacity to complete a breath
test and is not a suitable candidate to continue with the breath testing process.
If, however, the operator has determined that the subject IS capable of providing a sample, the
operator can choose to restart the testing sequence and reinstruct the subject on how to
provide a proper sample. A
“*Deficient Sample” is not considered to be a completed test
unless the operator declares the subject to be physically incapable.
Air Blank
After the breath sampling period is complete, the instrument will perform another “Air Blank” . The
instrument will display the “Air Blank” message and turn on the instrument’s internal purge pump for
approximately 20 seconds. This will purge the instrument’s sample chamber and once again check
the operational environment for possible contaminants. If all the parameters are met, the instrument
will proceed to the next step. If there is a problem, the instrument will abort the test and display a
message of
“Purge Fail” on the display and print “*Invalid” and “*Purge Fail” on the Test Report.
