19. Operating A Controller And Attached Cradles
When An AutoRAE 2 Controller is attached to one or more AutoRAE 2 Cradles, the
buttons on the AutoRAE 2 Cradles are only used to initiate a bump test or calibration.
The two-character LED displays on each Cradle show the ID number for the respective
Cradle. All operations and settings are controlled by the AutoRAE 2 Controller.
19.1. Turning The AutoRAE 2 Controller On
Toggle the switch on the side of the AutoRAE 2 Controller. The LCD display turns on
and the LED on the on/off switch glows red. The system performs a self-test, covering
the AutoRAE 2’s internal pump and valves, Terminal Adapter, gas pressure in connected
cylinders, and other vital components and parameters. As each cradle is powered up, its
Bump and Cal LEDs turn on momentarily and the two-character LED display lights up
showing the Cradle ID number in the system.
19.2. Turning The AutoRAE 2 Controller Off
Toggle the switch on the side of the AutoRAE 2 Controller. The display and power LED
go dark, as do all the LEDs on attached cradles.
19.3. Startup Routine
When you turn on the system, the AutoRAE 2 Controller’s display shows this screen:
It then goes through a series of tests and shows several screens, including configuration
information for the five gas inlets.
