17 M2 Rig Monitor Operator’s Manual
Chapter 4: Operation
Overview
This chapter describes the M2 Rig Monitor in normal operation. This chapter also
describes the Rig Monitor in alarm 1, alarm 2, and fail conditions and suggests responses
to these conditions.
Normal Operation
Normal operation is defined as follows:
• The start-up procedure is complete.
• The Rig Monitor is not indicating an alarm 1, alarm 2, or fail condition.
• The Rig Monitor is not in Calibration or Configuration modes.
During normal operation, the Rig Monitor simultaneously displays the current gas
reading, unit of measure, and target gas.
Information Screen
The Information Screen displays the M2 Rig Monitor’s operating voltage and firmware
and hardware information. To display the Information Screen, do the following:
1. Press and hold the DOWN/NO button for 3 seconds. The Information Screen will
appear.
2. Continue holding the DOWN/NO button to keep the Information Screen on the
display. The top line indicates the voltage that the power converter is providing to the
Rig Monitor. The second line indicates the firmware that is running, version 5.0 in this
example, and the Rig Monitor’s hardware version, version 2B in this example. This
information may be useful if you need to contact the factory with questions about the
Rig Monitor.
3. Release the DOWN/NO button when you are done viewing the Information Screen.
The display will return to the normal operation screen within a couple of seconds.
NOTE: The Information Screen is not a good indicator of battery life because the power
converter will operate as normal and have an output of 24 volts until the 12
VDC battery dies.
