M2A-XL Transmitter Operator’s Manual
Alarm 1 Condition
Alarm 1 Condition Indications
When the gas reading reaches the alarm 1 setpoint, the M2A-XL senses an alarm 1 condition. The
M2A-XL alerts you to an alarm 1 condition as follows:
• The A1 LED turns on.
• The gas reading alternates with the
ALARM-1
message.
• The alarm 1 relay energizes.
Responding to an Alarm 1 Condition
1. Follow your established procedure for a low level combustible or toxic gas condition or a
decreasing oxygen concentration condition.
2. After the gas reading falls below (above for oxygen) the alarm 1 setpoint, press the ENTER
button to reset the alarm 1 circuit. Resetting the alarm 1 circuit turns off the A1 LED, resets
the OLED display, and de-energizes the alarm 1 relay.
NOTE:
If the ENTER button is pressed while the M2A-XL is in an alarm 1
condition, the A1 LED will flash but all other indications will remain
unchanged.
You cannot de-energize the alarm 1 relay until the gas reading falls below
(above for oxygen) the alarm 1 setpoint.

ALARM-2
message.
• The alarm 2 relay energizes.

message, and both alarm
relays will energize
.
