Self-Testing the
Monitor
This section covers self-testing the monitor.
Prior to daily use, the device prompts to perform a self-test. This process is a simple
and effective way to ensure safe operation of the monitor. During the self-test, the
audio, visual and vibration alarms are activated and the sensor is tested. Table 20
details a step by step process for performing the self-test.
Warning: The Self-test does not take place of a Bump Test or a Calibration to ensure
the monitor response to gas.
Table 20 Self-Test Steps
LCD STEPS
When the TEST icon appears in the upper left hand corner, a self-test is
required. Press the button on the front of the monitor to perform the
self-test.
After pressing the button this screen appears. During the self-test ensure
the following occurs:
• The monitor emits one audible beep
• All LEDs light and monitor vibrates
• All LCD display elements appear
After the full element LCD displays, the low alarm and high alarm set
points display.
Note: These alarm set points may be changed using either the IR Connect
Software or Test Station Software. See “Specifications” on page 80.
Note: Once a self-test is performed successfully, the Check Mark appears
automatically, and the High and Low set points display.
Note: Provided the monitor has not been programmed via the IR Connect
Software or has not been exposed to gas, this displays. Otherwise, go to
the next step.
When a self-test is successful the monitor turns to the original screen and
displays a CHECK MARK in place where the TEST icon was previously
displayed and one short audible beep sounds.
The monitor by default prompts another self-test in twenty (20) hours
from when the button was pressed.
Note: This value may be changed using the IR Connect Software.
(If applicable) If programmed with a USER ID, after the alarm set points
are displayed, a combination of numbers or letters scrolls across the
LCD. This includes a maximum of two (2) screens with a maximum
character limit on the USER ID of six (6) characters. The USER ID may
be changed via the IR Connect Software.
