2.1 Display
The TG5000 utilizes an Organic LED (OLED) display which is capable of being seen from a
distance of up to 50 ft (15 m) depending on conditions. The OLED display provides clear and
crisp information in a variety of languages. The gas reading gauge, which wraps around the live
reading area, mimics the reading as a percent of full scale and is also used as a progress bar
during operations which require a countdown.

In addition to the OLED display, the TG5000 also employs green, yellow and red LEDs on the side
and lower middle of its face. These are used to signal normal operating conditions, fault conditions
and alarm conditions.
The TG5000 will go into “Eco-Mode” after 3 minutes of no interaction and if not in an alarm
condition. While in Eco-Mode, the main display will power down and the status LED's will remain
illuminated to determine that the device is not in an alarm condition. The OLED display can be
powered up by touching either of the two EZ touch buttons on the front display.
