any alarm indications. The monitor must be in measuring 
mode before it is placed in the respirator. 

 

 

 

WARNING 

The CMS-4 is not operational as a carbon 
monoxide monitor unless it is Measuring Mode. 
The monitor must be in Measuring Mode before 
it is placed in the respirator. Failure to ensure 
the monitor is in Measuring Mode can result in 
death if carbon monoxide is present. 

 

 

4.1.1  Entering Measuring Mode 

 

4.1.1.1

  Make sure the monitor is OFF. (Press and hold 

POWER/MODE until the screen is blank.) 
 

4.1.1.2

 Turn on the monitor by pressing and holding the 

POWER/MODE button until the alarm beeps.  
 

4.1.1.3

  After  the  warm-up  sequence,  the  monitor  goes 

into Measuring Mode (normal operating mode) when the 
alarm beeps and the LCD screen is as shown in Figure 
12 and indicates the current gas concentration. After an 
initial calibration per Section 5.7, the CMS-4 is ready for 
monitoring.
