While in maintenance mode, the status information of gas/trouble alarms is sent to the master
digitally. If the status information is used to operate the interlocks of the external devices,
release the interlocks beforehand, as needed to prevent a possible activation of the interlocks
during the maintenance mode.
Trouble alarm will activate if the main unit power switch is set to the OFF position while in any
maintenance mode.
The analog output may change when the main unit power switch is set to the OFF position.
During normal operation (gas monitoring mode), ensure the maintenance switch is set to the
center position and the host maintenance mode is off. Gas alarm contacts and trouble alarm
open collector will not activate if the switch is set to right/left (MNT1/MNT2) position or host
maintenance mode is on.
During MNT2, the analog output is fixed at 4.0 mA (or 17.4 mA for oxygen).
For the gas alarm contacts and trouble alarm open collector, refer to 7-5 “Operation –
Maintenance Mode” of the PS-7-M series gas detector’s instruction manual.
