10. Monitoring mode
After power up and successful completion of the start up routine the detector will enter monitoring mode.
The detector display shows gas type and measuring units that it is configured for and the current gas
reading (e.g. CO 0ppm in the example below).
11. Review mode
Review mode allows the user to review the software version of the transmitter and sensor, gas type,
full scale range, span calibration point, estimated time to next calibration and test result. To activate
review mode hold the magnet over the MENU/ENTER switch for more than 2 seconds (and less than
5 seconds). The information is shown in sequential order and then the detector returns to monitoring
mode. The mA output of the detector continues to represent the current gas reading (i.e. the output is
not put into inhibit). If any fault exists, the output will be 3mA (Fault default).
12. Menu mode
Menu mode has 9 menus. A description of the menus and their function is given in the table below:
Menu
Display Description
Calibration
Allows zero and span calibration of the detector. The calibration
point can also be selected. See section 8.2 for detailed calibration
instructions.
Set Range
Allows the detector full scale range to be changed. See section 8.1
for default and selectable full scale ranges by gas sensor type.
Configure Inhibit
Set the inhibit current to 3 or 4mA (toxic sensors) or 3 or 17.4mA
(oxygen sensors). Set inhibit timeout period, or put unit into
permanent inhibit (set timeout to 0).
Set Password
Set or disable password protection of menu mode.
Calibration Interval
Enable/disable calibration due warning. Set the calibration due warning
interval. Select if warning is off, via display or via display and 3mA output.
Bump Test
Allows checking of detector response to gas with the output inhibited.
Force Current
Force the detectors current output to a value between 4 and 20mA.
Change Sensor
Change a sensor without causing the unit to display an F04 ‘no
sensor detected’ fault message.
Quit
Quit menu mode and return to monitoring mode.
