    Study Notes

    Alarm Settings

    • Alarms can be customized by enabling/disabling combinations of light, buzzer, and vibration.
    • Possible settings include All Enabled, Light only, Vibration only, Buzzer only, and several combinations of these options.

    Comfort Beep

    • A single beep at 60-second intervals to indicate functionality.
    • Option to enable or disable the Comfort Beep feature.

    Man Down Alarm

    • Critical feature to detect user immobility and potential emergencies.
    • Activates local and remote alarms if the instrument is still for too long.
    • Sends alerts to remote safety officers via a dedicated wireless network.
    • Main screen displays a Man Down icon when enabled.
    • Utilizes a 3D gravity sensor for motion detection.

    Pre-Alarm & Motion Settings

    • Pre-alarm triggers after a preset time (default 30 seconds) of instrument inactivity.
    • Users notified with an “Are You OK?” screen; response required to clear the alarm.
    • Settings available include Off/On status, Motionless Time, Motion Sensitivity (low, medium, high), and Warning Time before the Man Down Alarm.

    Alarm Indications

    • Alarm types are distinguished by audio (beeps), visual (LED flashes), and vibration.
    • Super Alarm: High urgency with 4 beeps per second.
    • Man Down Alarm and Warning: 3 beeps per second with corresponding display screens.
    • Various beep rates indicate different conditions, such as Fail, Pump Fail, Over Range, etc.

    General Alarm Conditions

    • Different alarms trigger based on gas levels (HIGH, LOW, TWA, STEL), pump issues, calibration failures, and battery status.
    • Specific beep patterns correspond to each alarm condition, aiding in identification.

    Measurement Units

    • Common units used include parts per million (ppm), parts per billion (ppb), and various metric measures for atmospheric conditions (mg/m3).
    • Some units are specific to sensor types, and CO2 measurement can transition from ppm to %VOL based on pre-set thresholds.

    Alarm Management

    • The Alarms menu allows setting limits for High, Low, STEL, and TWA alarms.
    • Alarm Mode can be set to Auto Reset (resets when conditions normalize) or Latch (requires manual shutdown).
    • Not all alarm settings apply to all sensors (e.g., STEL may not be relevant for gamma sensors).
