 ALARMS

3. ALARMS

When the instrument detects an alarm set-point has been reached, the audible and visual alarm
will be activated to alert the user. The instrument will also vibrate in alarm condition.
A Non-Latching alarm (default) will reset automatically once the reading returns within the pre-set
alarm limits. The alarm will not clear until the reading has returned within the limits for a period of 20
seconds. This prevents the alarm from activating / de-activating regularly when the reading is hovering
around the alarm set-point. Alternatively, the alarm can be muted.
A Latching alarm (configurable option) will stay on until the user resets by a press and hold of the
RH button once the gas reading has returned within the pre-set alarm limits.

By default, all instrument alarms are non-latching.

Note 1: Alarm levels are set in accordance with current standards.
Note 2: Warning alarms do not vibrate.

 CALIBRATION

5. CALIBRATION

The instrument has been calibrated for a particular gas. Where any doubt exists the product should be
returned to GMI or an authorised distributor for calibration.

WARNING: The instrument must be calibrated and configured by authorised personnel only.

Two methods of calibration are possible:

• Field Calibration. See Configuration & Field Calibration Handbook
(Part No. 63187) for further details.

• The GMI Automatic Calibration System (Part No. 63122) provides controlled delivery of
gas, allowing you to calibrate in a controlled manner and maintain a record of calibration
results on a PC.

5-1
 OXYGEN / TOXIC - USER HANDBOOK

Note: The detailed calibration methods, consisting of both hardware and software, are manufactured
by GMI. For more detail contact GMI or an authorised distributor.

5.1 CALIBRATION VALIDITY

Calibration validity is the responsibility of the user. Under normal operating conditions a 12 month
period can be expected. This is no guarantee, however, as the precise application of the product is
unknown to GMI. Individual codes of practice may dictate shorter periods.
Regular checking, by using bump-test procedure, establishes a pattern of reliability and enables the
calibration check period to be modified in line with operational experience. The higher the risk, the
more frequently calibration should be checked. The bump-test procedure details the application of
gas, either manually, or automatically using the Bump-Test Station.
Refer to section 5.2 for Bump Test details.

5-2
 CALIBRATION

5.2 BUMP TEST

An automatic or manual Bump Test can be performed on the instrument to test the instrument’s
