Beacon 110 Rig Monitor Operator’s Manual 20
Alarm 1 Condition
Alarm 1 Condition Indications
When the gas reading reaches the alarm 1 setpoint, the Rig Monitor senses an alarm 1 condition.
The Rig Monitor alerts you to an alarm 1 condition as follows:
• The alarm 1 LED turns on.
• The gas reading alternates with the ALARM-1 message.
• The buzzer sounds a pulsing tone.
• The alarm 1 relay energizes and the strobe/horn activates.
Responding to an Alarm 1 Condition
1. Follow your established procedure for a toxic gas condition.
2. The alarms are factory set as latching. After the gas reading falls below the alarm 1 setpoint,
press the reset switch to reset the alarm 1 circuit. Resetting the alarm 1 circuit silences the
buzzer, turns off the alarm 1 LED, returns the LCD to the normal operation screen, de-
energizes the alarm 1 relay, and turns off the strobe/horn.
NOTE: If the reset switch is pressed while the Beacon 110 Rig Monitor is in an alarm 1
condition, the buzzer will be silenced and the alarm 1 LED will flash.
You cannot de-energize the alarm 1 relay and consequently turn off the strobe/horn
until the gas reading falls below the alarm 1 setpoint.
Alarm 2 Condition
Alarm 2 Condition Indications
When the gas reading reaches the alarm 2 setpoint, the Rig Monitor senses an alarm 2 condition.
The Rig Monitor alerts you to an alarm 2 condition as follows:
• The alarm 2 LED turns on.
• The gas reading alternates with the ALARM-2 message.
• The buzzer sounds a pulsing tone.
• The alarm 2 relay energizes and the strobe/horn will remain activated.
NOTE: If the Beacon 110 Rig Monitor is in both an alarm 1 and alarm 2 condition, both the
alarm 1 and alarm 2 LEDs will be on, the gas reading will alternate with the ALMS
1&2 message, and both alarm relays will energize.
