11. If the GX-2012 experiences a sensor failure during start up, a screen indicating which
sensor failed displays. In the example below, the CO sensor has failed.
If you wish to continue, press and release the RESET SILENCE button to
acknowledge the failure. The gas reading for the failed sensor will be replaced by
“---”. Replace the failed sensor as soon as possible.
12. The GX-2012 is now operating in Normal Mode and monitoring for gas in Measuring
Mode. The Normal Operation Screen appears.
The concentrations of the target gases are displayed along with the time and battery charge
level. The heart symbol displayed just to the left of the battery charge level flashes while
the instrument is functioning properly. If it disappears or is steadily on, the unit is
experiencing a microprocessor error. The fan symbol just to the left of the heart symbol
spins while the pump is operating.
Turning On the GX-2012 in Normal Mode With All Modes Active
If the
L./B. MODE
item in Maintenance Mode is set to LC, bH, or LC bH (see “Updating
the Leak Check/Bar Hole Mode Setting” on page 125), then the user must select Normal
Mode during the start up sequence to operate in Normal Mode. The standard factory
setting for
L./B. MODE
is OFF. See “Chapter 4: Using the GX-2012 in Bar Hole Mode”
on page 69 for a description of Bar Hole Mode or “Chapter 5: Using the GX-2012 in Leak
Check Mode” on page 78 for a description of Leak Check Mode.
The following description of the GX-2012 start up sequence assumes that the following
menu items in Maintenance Mode are turned on:
LNCH BRK
,
ID DISP
,
CL RMNDR
,
and
BP RMNDR
. If any of these items is turned off, then the corresponding screen will
not appear. It also assumes that the
L./B. MODE
menu item in Maintenance Mode is set
to LC bH. If
L./B. MODE
is set to LC, the Bar Hole Mode Select Screen will not appear.
If
L./B. MODE
is set to bH, the Leak Check Mode Select Screen will not appear.
