regulator with the gas sampling hose to the gas inlet right side of the case.
By default the PDM Mono Dock is programmed to use default gas concentration, as span gas for your
detector. If you have a bottle with a dierent concentration please change this setting to the right
values. Chapter Load PDM Mono Dock Conguration
Default value span gas:
O2: 18%
CO: 50ppm
HS: 10ppm
SO: 10ppm
NH3: 50ppm

Ensure that Gas concentration in gas bottle matches with the gas bottle setting in the cong.ini
Press the Bump button.
Now the LED around the button will glow blue, when nished the LED will glow green.
If an error occurs the LED will blink the error code in RED. (see Error Codes for explanation)

1. Location: ll the Location of the bump station which will be logged into the datalog
2. Bump time: Time of gas exposure during bump test
3. Cal time : Time of gas exposure during calibration
4. Gasbottle: types of supported gas including the expected concentration in the bottle
5. Expiry: date of Gas bottle expiry
6. Lot: Lot number of used gas bottle
7. For each gas type the option to ll the Low/High and cal/bump due.
Conguration of the gas is automatically changed in the detector corresponding the cong le. If you
