4. CONFIGURATION PROCEDURE

4.1 INTRODUCTION

Sentry is operated via the seven keys on the front panel.
Operation includes initial set-up, periodic calibration,
recall of history, and changes to configuration.

Certain procedure and message conventions are used to
provide consistency. A knowledge of these conventions
will aid in understanding of the set-up and operation steps.

The

UP

and

DOWN

arrow keys change information

displayed on the alpha-numeric (lower) display. Changes
made by using the arrows are not "implemented" until the

ENTER

key is pressed.

The

ENTER

key is used to access the selected activity or to

enter selected data or status information into the controller
memory.

When any of the four activity keys

TEST

,

RESET

,

TIME

,

MODE

are depressed the

SENSOR

/

LEVEL

display is

cleared and the activity information is displayed on the
alpha-numeric display.

The messages

PRESS

ENTER

TO

or

ENTER

indicate that

the selected activity can be accessed via the

ENTER

key.

The message

USE

ARROWS

/

ENTER

indicates that module

numbers or other variables can be changed with the
arrows prior to entering the activity with the

ENTER

key.

The message

PRESENT

CONFIG

is used in system

responses during

CHECK

activities. Variables displayed

as

PRESENT

CONFIG

can be changed via the

CHANGE

mode.

Positive response messages such as

SYSTEM

RESET

COMPLETE

are displayed for 1.5 seconds to confirm that

the activity has been completed.

Activity names are displayed bracketed by

"<"

and

">"

signs.

Normal operation is the condition where the change and
calibrate light is off and the display cycles continuously
between all active module numbers.

If the

ENTER

key is pressed once during normal operation

the display locks onto the current module number and can
be advanced using the

UP

and

DOWN

arrow keys. When

the display is locked onto one module number the gas type
and units display is shown in round parenthesis “( )”.

If any module is force calibrated, the gas type and units
display for that module number is shown in square
parenthesis “[ ]”.

The message

USE

ARROWS/ENTER

indicates that the

arrows can be used to change the module number or other
data on the second line and the

ENTER

can be used to

access the selected activity or module number.

Successive presses of any one of the four activity keys
will cycle through each option available and will return
the system to the normal operating mode..

When any activity key cycle has been started and not
completed the remaining activity keys are disabled except
that the

RESET

key can be used to return the system to

normal

OPERATE

mode.

When the system is in the

CHANGE

mode the

CALIBRATE

OR CHANGE

light is ON.
