PRE-ALARM
If the SCBA remains motionless for more than twenty (20) seconds, the
distress alarm will automatically sound a pre-alarm.
When the pre-alarm occurs, the green flashing light on the control console
is replaced by a bright red light that flashes in cadence with the pre-alarm
tone and is accompanied by an ascending/descending audible tone that
increases in volume during the pre-alarm cycle. In addition, the lights in the
Heads-Up Display flash alternately from one side to the other.
If the SCBA user is not incapacitated or not in need of assistance, move
the SCBA to reset the pre-alarm. When reset, the flashing red light will be
replaced by the flashing green light, the ascending/descending tone will
stop, and the Heads-up Display will return to showing the current cylinder
pressure.
Remember that the motion sensor is in the Sensor Module on the SCBA
backframe beneath the air cylinder. Actual movement of the SCBA
backframe is required to reset the pre-alarm. Shaking the control console
will not reset the distress alarm .
To manually reset the pre-alarm, press and hold the reset button on the
side of the control console until three (3) quick audible chirps are heard
and the red flashing light on the control console is replaced by the green
flashing light.
FULL ALARM
If the SCBA remains motionless through the twelve (12) second pre-alarm
cycle, the distress alarm will go into full alarm. This may indicate that the
user is incapacitated or in need of assistance and cannot move.
Full alarm is indicated by a loud, almost continuous 3-tone chirp from the
Sensor Module accompanied by the flashing red signal light on the control
console. Ten (10) seconds after the full alarm condition starts, the Locator
System transmitter will begin to transmit the unique ID number for the unit.
After an additional (10) second delay, the transmitter in the unit will begin
transmitting the unique ID number that can be received by the HHR. To
reset the full alarm condition, press the reset button twice . See FIGURE 4.
After the full alarm has been silenced by pressing the reset button twice,
the distress alarm will remain activated in the automatic mode with the
green light flashing once per second. As long as the SCBA is pressurized,
there must be movement of the SCBA at least every twenty (20) seconds
or the distress alarm will again go into pre-alarm followed by full alarm as
described previously.
MANUAL ALARM
If the SCBA user requires immediate assistance, pressing the manual
alarm button located on the front of the control console will immediately
sound the full alarm. See FIGURE 4. The manual alarm may be activated
at any time, even when the SCBA is not pressurized.
If the manual alarm is activated when the SCBA is not pressurized, press
the reset button
twice
to silence the alarm. The distress alarm will remain
on in automatic mode. To turn the unit off, press the reset
twice
again while
the unit is not in alarm mode. In manual alarm mode, the Locator System
transmitter in the unit will begin transmitting the unique ID number that can
be received by the HHR with NO delay.
Remember, the loud audible alarm and flashing red light can be turned on
at any time by pressing the manual alarm button on the control console.
