Chapter 6: Gas Type Mode

Overview

This chapter describes how to use Gas Type Mode to select the M2’s gas type. The gas type
determines the target gas and detection range.

CAUTION:

The 65-2619RK-CH4-4 M2 is factory setup for methane (CH

4

). Do not change the

Gas Type setting.

Gas Type Mode includes a 5-minute time-out feature. If you do not press a button for 5
minutes, the M2 automatically returns to normal operation.

NOTE:

If the M2 enters normal operation because of a program time-out, it enters a
warm-up period just as it does when it is first turned on.

Selecting the Gas Type

1.

While in normal operation or during the warm-up sequence, press and hold the UP/
YES and DOWN/NO buttons for five seconds. Release them when the following
screen appears.

2.

If you want to exit Gas Type Mode, press and release the DOWN/NO button. The
display will indicate NO CHANGE and the M2 will return to normal operation.

If you want to continue in Gas Type Mode, press and release the UP/YES button. The
top display line will indicate GasType? and the bottom display line will indicate the
target gas choice.

3.

Use the UP/YES or DOWN/NO button to scroll through the choices of target gas.
Table 6 below lists the choices of target gas for the M2.
