Display
It will go to the boot display by long press the middle key in the case of normal gas indicators, shown in Figure1:

Figure 1 Boot display

This interface is to wait for the instrument parameters stable. The scroll bar indicates
the waiting time, about 50s. X% is the current progress. The bottom right corner display the real time and power capacity.
When the percentage turns into 100%, the instrument enters the monitor 6 gas display Figure 2:

If the user purchases a non-six-in-one, the display interface is different. When three-in-one, there is a gas display position that is not turned on, and the two-in-one only displays two gases.
If you need display one gas interface, you can press the right button to switch. Let’s briefly introduce these two gases display interfaces.
1)Multi-gas display interface:
Display: gas type, gas concentration value, unit, status. as shown in Figure 2.

When the gas exceeds the index , the unit’s alarm type will be displayed beside the unit (carbon monoxide, hydrogen sulfide, flammable gas alarm type is the first or second level, and the oxygen alarm type is the upper or lower limit), the backlight is on, and the LED light flashes, the buzzer sounds with vibration, and the horn icon will appear, as shown in Figure 3.

Figure 17 Alarm Value Setting

In Figure 17 interface, press the left key choose carbon monoxide “first level” alarm value, then press right key to enter Settings menu, as shown in Figure 18, At this point, press the left button to switch the data bit, press the right button to add the flashing bit value. Set the required value by the left and right keys, and press the middle key to enter the alarm value confirmation interface after setting. At this time, press the left key to confirm. After setting successfully, the position in the bottom middle of the screen shows “setting successfully”; otherwise, it prompts “setting failure”, as shown in Figure 19.

Figure 18 Alarm Value Confirmation interface

Figure 19 Setting successfully interface

Note: the alarm value set must be less than the factory value (oxygen lower limit must be above than the factory value), otherwise the setting will fail.

Equipment calibration
Note:
1. After the equipment is started, zero correction can be made after initialization.
2. Oxygen in the standard atmospheric pressure can enter the “gas calibration” menu correct display value is 20.9%vol, must not operate “zero correction” in the air.
3. Please do not calibrate the equipment without standard gas.

Zero correction
Step 1: in the main menu interface, press the left button to select the function item of ‘device calibration’, and then press the right button to enter the calibration password menu, as shown in Figure 20.According to the icon in the last line of the interface, press the left button to switch data bits, press the right button to add 1, enter the password 111111 through the cooperation of the two keys, and press the middle button to switch the interface to the calibration selection interface, as shown in Figure 21.

Step 3:Press right key to return to the gas type selection interface after the completion of zeroing correction. At this time, other gas types can be selected for zeroing correction. The method is the same as above. After zero, return to the detection gas interface step by step or wait 15 seconds, the instrument will automatically return to the detection gas interface.

Full calibration
Step1:After the gas to be stable display value, enter the main menu, call up the Calibration menu selection. The specific methods of operation like the step one of cleared calibration.
Step 2: Select ‘gas calibration’ feature items, press the right key to enter Calibration value interface, then set the concentration of standard gas through the left and right key, suppose now that Calibration is carbon monoxide gas, the concentration of Calibration gas concentration is 500ppm,at this time set to ’0500 ‘can be. As shown in Figure 25.

Figure 24  Gas Selection

Figure 25 Set the value of standard gas

Step 3: After setting the calibration，holding down the left button and right button, change the interface to the gas calibration interface, as shown in Figure 26,this interface has a current value detected gas concentration. When the countdown goes to 10, you can press left button to manual calibration, after the 10S, the gas automatic calibrates, after the Calibration is successful, the interface displays’ Calibration success! ‘On the contrary Show’ Calibration Failed! ‘.The display format shown in Figure 27.

Figure 27 Calibration results

Step4: After Calibration is successful, the value of the gas if the display is not stable, You can select ‘rescaled’, if the calibration fails, check the calibration gas concentration and calibration settings are the same or not. After calibration of the gas is complete, press the right to return to the gas detection interface.

Step 5: after all the gas calibration is completed, press the menu to return to the detection gas interface, or automatically to return to the gas detection interface.

Back
In the main menu interface, press the left key to select the ‘back’ function item, and then press the right button to return to the previous menu

1) Be sure to avoid a long-time charging. The charging time may extends, and the instrument’s sensor may be affected by differences in the charger (or charging environmental differences) when the instrument is open. In most severe cases, it may even appear instrument error display or alarm situation.
2) The normal charging time of 3 to 6 hours or so, try not to charge the instrument in six hours or more to protect the effective life of the battery.
3) The instrument can work for 12 hours or so after fully charged (except for the alarm state, because the flash when the alarm, vibration, sound require additional power. The working hours reduced to 1/2 to 1 / 3 when keeping alarm status).
4) When the power of the instrument is very low, the instrument will be turned on and shut down automatically frequently. At this time, it is necessary to charge the instrument
5) Be sure to avoid using the instrument in a corrosive environment
6) Be sure to avoid contact with water instrument.
7) It’s should be unplug the power cable, and charged every 2-3 months, in order to protect the normal battery life when unused for long time.
8) If the instrument crash or cannot be opened, you can unplug the power cord, then plug the power cord to relieve accident crash situation.
9) Make sure the gas indicators are normal when open the instrument.
10) If you need to read the alarm record, its best enter the menu to accurate time before the initialization has not completed to prevent confusion when reading records.
