"Point 1 Disabled" through "Point 16 Disabled" - This is an array of 16 [32] push buttons which
enable the points to trigger a selected output. Once pushed the legends indicate that the points are
enabled and will read "Point 1 ENABLED" through "Point 16 [32] ENABLED" appropriate to the
users selection.
"Next Sensor" - This push button steps through sensors 1-4 in an endless loop. The indicator at the
top right corner of the screen shows which sensor is selected.
"UCO Option" - This is an HMI navigation button which switches the screen back to the UCO
Option screen.
4.2.6 Extended Setup and Sample Transport Times
The Extended Setup and Sample Transport Times screen allows the entry of analysis time (based on
the slowest sensor), the amount of analysis time extension, and information which enables the
extended analysis time logic. Sample Transport Times for each point are also entered on this screen.
See Sections 3.3 and 3.4 for a complete description of these subjects.

The Extended Setup and Sample Transport Times screen consists of the following:
Four columns; Rate, Level Increasing, and Level Decreasing - These fields are numerical entry
elements that allow entry of special set points used by the extended analysis time logic within the
MultiGard 5000 unit. All set point values are in engineering units and are entered for rate,
increasing, and decreasing for each of the 4 sensors. By default both the rate and increasing set
points are set at full scale and the decreasing set point is set at negative full scale. This makes them
ineffective or turned off. Enter reasonable values and they become active. This feature is useful if
you want to continue monitoring a sample point for an amount of time in addition to the Analysis
Time when a change in gas reading occurs that is outside the rate and level parameters.
