Install the detector and controller terminals strips into their sockets on the new
amplifier as shown in Figure 3 on page 7 of this manual. If controller leads or detector
leads were removed during this procedure, refer to Table 5 and Table 6 below.

NOTE:

When a transmitter is first powered up with a new amplifier, the initial output
may be either high or below zero depending on the setting of the zero pot. Be
sure to make arrangements so that this does not cause unwanted alarms.

10. Turn on power to the controller.

11. Turn on the controller and place it into normal operation.

NOTE:

When first powered up, the transmitter will enter about a one minute period
when the 4-20 mA output is stabilizing and may be above the controller alarm
points or well below zero momentarily. RKI controllers have a one minute
warmup period when the controller does not display any gas reading or give any
alarm indication. The CO

2

transmitter’s 4-20 mA signal should be stable by the

time the controller’s warmup period is over.

12. Allow the transmitter to warm-up for 5 minutes.

13. Calibrate the transmitter as described in “Calibration” on page 14 of this manual.
