Bump Test
Due Increment:
If I-Test undertakes a successful bump test on the inserted gas monitor the
bump test due date will be incremented within the gas monitor. This will ensure
the gas monitor alerts the user when the next bump test is due.
Bump Test Due Increment is the increment in days that will be added to the
current date in the gas monitor to indicate when the next bump test is due.
When entering the actual gas value also enter the bump test due increment
then click on update gas value. The entered value will be displayed in the
Gases list.
This option is only enabled if the selected cylinder is suitable for speedy bump
or smart bump.
Smart bump
tol/-:
A smart bump will test that the inserted gas monitor sensors respond correctly
to the applied level of gas. Smart bump will be deemed a pass if the sensors
reach the applied level of gas with a given tolerance. This tolerance is the
Smart bump tolerance
and is a percentage band of the applied gas level.
The gases previously defined in the cylinder will contain the Crowcon default
smart bump tolerance. This can be seen in the Gases list under ‘Bump +/- %‘.
If required this tolerance can be increased by entering a value in the Smart
bump tol/- field. This will be added to the default value.
The minimum and maximum pass values for the smart bump test per sensor
can be seen in the Gases list under ‘Min’ and ‘Max’ respectively.
This option is only enabled if the selected cylinder is suitable for smart bump.

Actual gas values, expiry date & Lot number, bump test intermittent interval & bump test
deviation can only be saved directly to an I-Test via the USB connector or to the database.
If this configuration is to be saved to USB memory stick these values are not saved.

Field configuration
During normal operation, whilst performing gas testing, I-Test can be configured to change aspects
of the inserted gas monitor configuration, such as sensor alarm levels as well as other aspects of
configuration.
Field configuration defines the functionality of an instrument configuration file that can be uploaded to
the gas monitor via the I-Test.
There are two main functional areas where gas monitor configuration can be changed; gas monitor
and sensors. Gas monitor settings are specific to the specified type of gas monitor and sensor
settings relate to specific gas sensors independent of gas monitor type.
