Operating the EntryRAE
Monitor Mode
In Monitor Mode, the EntryRAE samples the environment and displays
real-time readings for each enabled sensor.
The Pump Cycle
Under normal operating conditions, when the monitor is not in an alarm
state, the pump cycles on and off about every 8 seconds. This on/off cycle
improves the reliability of the PID and saves battery life.
The pump runs continuously when:
1.0 The concentration of any measured gas or vapor triggers an alarm
condition.
2.0 When the concentration of VOCs is nearing an alarm condition.
Continuous Operation of the Pump
Pressing the
Y
key and the
N
key simultaneously causes the pump to run
continuously for 5 minutes. This value can be changed using the ProRAE
Studio software.
