Chapter 6: Gas Type Mode
Overview
This chapter describes how to use Gas Type Mode to select the M2A’s gas type. The gas
type determines the target gas and detection range.
CAUTION:
The 65-2661RK-03-04 M2A is factory setup for carbon dioxide (CO
2
). Do not
change the Gas Type setting.
Gas Type Mode includes a 5-minute time-out feature. If you do not press a button for 5
minutes, the M2A automatically returns to normal operation.
NOTE:
If the M2A enters normal operation because of a program time-out, it enters a
warm-up period just as it does when it is first turned on.
Selecting the Gas Type
1.
While in normal operation or during the warm-up sequence, press and hold the UP/
YES and DOWN/NO buttons for five seconds. Release them when the following
screen appears.
2.
If you want to exit Gas Type Mode, press and release the DOWN/NO button. The
display will indicate NO CHANGE and the M2A will return to normal operation.
If you want to continue in Gas Type Mode, press and release the UP/YES button. The
top display line will indicate GasType? and the bottom display line will indicate the
target gas choice.
