VERY IMPORTANT INFORMATION

 

When you first unpack your Monitor to activate it, several IMPORTANT things need to be considered.

    1.  Almost 100% of the time, the Monitors WILL pick up and retain C O in the Housing and the sensor during transport, from the UPS trucks and especially from the Propane Fork  Lifts in the Transfer Terminals.

MONITORS SHOULD BE REMOVED FROM THE BOX and set out to  permit the C O to clear out BEFORE you connect the battery. Then, after 30 to 60 minutes of exposure to clean air, connect the battery. The display should show “ 0 “ PPM,. If it doesn’t, disconnect the battery and wait another 30 to 60 minutes, then try again.

AFTER the display shows “ 0 “, you need to CLEAR the Stored Data.

Remember, and emphasize to all of your people that the “CLR” function on your Monitor is an INTERNAL ELECTRONIC CLEARING function ONLY. It does NOT REMOVE any C O fumes that are still retained inside the Sensor or the Housing. Fanning the Monitor , will usually clear out the fumes quickly, permitting the Display to return to zero.

2. After the Display has returned to zero, you need to ERASE the Stored Data which would have been record. To successfully CLEAR the Monitor, the Monitor can NOT be in an ALARM Mode, and you need to depress the “Test Button” keeping it DEPRESSED CONTINUOUSLY  until the Green L.E.D. Illuminates. Immediately release the Test Button and the Monitor will sound a Long Single Beep, and the Display will show “Clr” indicating that you have successfully Erases the old stored data. Now when you push the Test Button to activate the test and the data recall sequence, you should see all “ZEROES”.

When your Monitor “Beeps” a SINGLE Beep, it has detected a PROBLEM in your Monitor’s Operation, NOT Carbon Monoxide. A message will appear on the display window of your Monitor telling you the type of  problem detected.

 

When your Monitor “Beeps” just ONE Beep, it has detected a PROBLEM in your Monitor, ….. IT HAS NOT DETECTED Carbon Monoxide.

A message will appear on the display window of your Monitor telling you the type of problem detected in your Monitor.

1. If battery needs to be replaced, display will show “bAT”.

2. If you have an electronic or calibration problem the display will show “Err”.

3. If your Monitor has reached the end of its life, display will show “Sensor End”, indicating it is time to get a NEW one.                              

When CARBON MONOXIDE IS ACTUALLY DETECTED, ….. DO NOT PANIC. Your Monitor gives you VERY EARLY WARNING, LONG BEFORE the level of C O is DEADLY.        

When your Monitor actually detects C O, as little as 7 parts per million, [ PPM ], it will sound 3 series of 4 beeps,

[ beep, beep, beep, beep, … pause … beep, beep, beep, beep,… pause … beep, beep, beep, beep, … repeated three times, once a minute. The higher the level of C O present, the more Cycles of beeps per minute will be sounded.  

Your New Monitor has a “HUSH” feature which permits you to SILENCE the audible alarm, (Beeping), while you decide what you need to do. To activate the “HUSH”, you simply PUSH IN the “Test Button”  ONE TIME.

If the C O present climbs to 25PPM, the audible alarm will reactivate automatically. If this happens, simply “Touch / Push” the Test / Hush Button again to silence the alarm. Open your windows and call your heating contractor to come immediately to locate the source of you C O problem.

If after you have reactivated the “Hush / Silence”, the CO present continues to Rise, the Monitor will once again automatically OVERRIDE the “Hush” and sound the audible alarm again at the next higher level. If the level of CO present rises to 90 PPM, Call 911, and exit your home IMMEDIATELY and move to fresh air.           

On this Monitor, the “Test” button actually does 3 different, but important jobs.

If you are just “Testing” your Monitor or activating the Data Recall Sequence, it will fully test the proper functioning of your Monitor and will display the full “Time Lines” on the highest C O exposure recorded since you “Cleared” the stored data.

If your Monitor IS in the Warning Mode, a simple, touching of the Test Button will HUSH / SILENCE” the audible alarm signal for the proper period of time. Then if you want to ERASE the stored data,  all you need to do is simply DEPRESS the test button until the GREEN L.E.D. light is illuminated, then release the Test Button and your Monitor will immediately sound a long single beep, and the display will show “Clr”, to confirm that all of the old stored data has been successfully erased.
