ALARM ADJUSTMENT

The alarm on the A771 is factory set at 30ppm. Use
the following procedure to select a different level
between 0 and 200ppm:
1. Remove the battery compartment cover on the

A771.

2. Using a DMM set to the DCmV range, touch the tips

of the test leads to the GND and Alarm test points on
the PCB (located on the left and right next to the
VR1 and VR2 adjustment pots).

3. Reading the DMM, set the alarm to the desired level

(1ppm = 1mV DC) by adjusting VR2.

4. Remove the leads and reassemble the A771.

CALIBRATION

1. Attach the banana jack to the COM and V input jacks

of the DMM.

2. Turn on the DMM and select the 2 or 4 volt range

DC.

3. If the voltage reading is below 4 VDC with the A771

in the off position, replace the 9 volt battery in the
A771.

4. Turn on the A771. The alarm LED with flash and the

green LED should stay on.

5. In a clean environment, adjust the zero knob until

the DMM reads zero.

6. Attach proper gas, regulator and adapter assembly

to the A771.

7. Allow to stabilize for 1 minute.
8. Adjust VR1 in the battery compartment to the

proper gas value.

9. Disconnect gas and allow A771 to zero.
