If the detector does not enter in Inert mode, The O2 readings are considered normal. The detector can be paired with an IR link, aka dongle. There is an IR connection at the bottom of the detector that allows FleetManager II configurations to be efficiently transferred to multiple detectors. The IR link will also allow new firmware to be transferred to detectors or data/event logs to be transferred to FleetManager II. Note: You should have the IR Connectivity Kit (sold separately) to transfer the data from a computer to the detector. BW Ultra User Manual 9 Maintenance Languages Honeywell BW™ Ultra supports eight languages: English, French, German, Portuguese, Spanish, Simplified Chinese, Russian, Italian, Dutch, Slovak, Czech, Polish, Norwegian, Maintenance Danish, Swedish, Finnish, Turkish, and Arabic. These are configurable through FleetManager II. Perform the following tasks to maintain the detector in good operating condition: Custom startup text can be entered in all languages except Simplified Chinese through FleetManager II. Calibrate, bump test, and inspect the detector on a regular schedule. Maintain an operations log of all maintenance, bump tests, calibrations, and alarm events. Clean the Detector Keep the exterior of the detector clean. Clean the exterior of the detector with a soft, damp cloth. Use only water-based (non-alcohol) cleaners. Do not use Gas Cylinder Guidelines soaps, solvents, or polishes. Use a premium-grade calibration gas that is approved by the National Institute of Standards and Technology.
