alarm event occurs, the data during this time is left blank. If the instrument 
is turned off less than 30 minutes after an alarm event occurs, the data file 
will only have logged data until the unit was turned off.
NOTE: If you are operating your instrument in Inert Mode with the 
oxygen alarm pattern set to H-HH, the maximum reading for the 
oxygen channel will be saved every 5 seconds instead of the 
minimum.
The instrument saves up to 8 alarm trend files. When an alarm event 
triggers an alarm trend file to be saved, subsequent alarm events must 
occur 15 minutes after the previous triggering event in order to trigger the 
saving of another alarm trend file. If 9 alarm trend files are already saved in 
the instrument’s memory, the oldest alarm trend file is overwritten when a 
new alarm trend file is saved. Alarm trend data can always be displayed in 
either table or graph format. 
To view and perform desired operations with the alarm trend files:
 1. With the software already launched, click the Data control button along 
the right side of the program window. The Data Window will appear.
 2. If necessary, double-click the GX-2012 or Gas Tracer icon in the top of 
the Data window’s upper left frame to see the folders of downloaded 
data.
