For all Protec P3000
configurations
In the I•Guide message line the Protec P3000 will prompt the user for action. First it
will ask to move to the first testing position. Also on the probe display the message
“okay pos. 1?” will be shown. Please confirm with the right probe button that the
sniffer tip has reached the right location.
After the first location has been confirmed the message “leak check point1” will be
indicated on the main unit display and the elapsing measurement time (stored in the
testing program) will be shown in the lower part of the menu page. Please make sure
to hold the sniffer tip in the right testing location during the total measuring time.
During this time a ticking sound will be issued by the main unit and a beep will
indicate that the measuring time has elapsed and the sniffer tip can be moved again.
After the measurement time has elapsed the message “Move to point 2” will be
displayed on the main unit. The Probe display will read “tip to pos. 2”. Please move
the sniffer tip to the next testing location and if the wait time indicated in the display
has elapsed you may start the next measurement. If the operator tries to start the
next measurement before the wait time has elapsed, the message “please wait” will
be displayed in the message line until a next measurement is allowed. Please
confirm that the sniffer tip has been positioned properly by pressing the right probe
button so that the next measurement can be started.
