4. When the desired target gas is on the display, press and release the ENTER button. The display will ask 

SAVE IT? YES/NO

.

5. To discard the gas type change, press and release the DOWN/NO button. The display will ask 

DO OVER? 

YES/NO

. Press the DOWN/NO button. The display will ask 

ABORT? YES/NO

. Press the UP/YES button. 

The M2A will return to normal operation without changing the gas type.

To save the gas type, press and release the UP/YES button. The display will indicate 

Gas Type Updated

, the 

display will indicate the target gas and the detection range for a few seconds, and then the M2A will enter 
Configuration Mode automatically so that the parameter settings in Configuration Mode can be verified or 
changed.

6. While in Configuration Mode press and release the ENTER button to accept the displayed parameter setting 

and move to the next one. Use the UP/YES and DOWN/NO buttons to adjust a setting. See “Chapter 5: 
Configuration Mode” on page 26 
for a complete description of Configuration Mode.

7. When you have reviewed and accepted the last item in Configuration Mode by pressing the ENTER button, 

display will ask 

SAVE IT? YES/NO

.

8. To save the configuration settings, press and release the UP/YES button.The display will indicate 

Config 

Saved

 and the M2A will begin its warm-up sequence.

To discard the settings and review them again, press the DOWN/NO button. The display will ask 

DO 

OVER? YES/NO

. Press the UP/YES button and the display will indicate 

Re-do Config

, then display the 

target gas and the detection range for a few seconds before returning to Configuration Mode. Repeat steps 6 
- 8 until the settings are as desired.
