IMPORTANT:

 A function or “bump” test, using a known concentration of 

calibration gas, should be performed periodically based on instrument use, 
exposure to gas, and environmental conditions. The frequency is best 
determined by company policy or local regulatory agencies. If an 
instrument fails a function or “bump” test, or, if it is dropped, submerged, 
or appears damaged, a full calibration is recommended. The safest 
approach is to perform a function or “bump” test prior to each day’s use. 
Industrial Scientific is not responsible for establishing customer safety 
practices and policies.  

Zero Screen (if enabled) 

If zeroing is enabled (via the Zero Enable 
screen in the Configuration section), then 
the Zero screen is displayed. From this 
screen the user initiates the zeroing process 
of the sensors by pressing the Enter button. 
The zeroing process should only be initiated 
when the instrument is in clean ambient air. 
If clean air is not available, a cylinder of 
zero grade air should be used. (Refer to the 
Zeroing and Calibration processes later in 
this manual). 

Pressing the On/Off/Mode button from the Zero screen displays the Peak 
Readings screen. 

Peak Readings Screen 

The Peak Readings screen displays the 
peak icon, the names of the four installed 
sensors, and the corresponding peak 
values for each since the last time the peak 
value(s) were cleared. 

Pressing the Enter button resets all of the 
peak values to the current reading. 

If one or more toxic gas sensors are installed, then pressing the 
On/Off/Mode button from the Peak Readings screen displays the TWA 
Readings screen. 

If no toxic gas sensors are installed, then pressing the On/Off/Mode 
button from the Peak Readings screen returns the user to the Normal 
Monitoring screen.
