Maintenance Mode

There are two maintenance modes for the Model GD-K77D: Maintenance Mode 1 and
Maintenance Mode 2. Under Maintenance Mode 1, you can perform a zero adjustment
and confirm the alarm points. Under Maintenance Mode 2, you can confirm bias voltage
(optional), perform a zero adjustment, perform a span adjustment, and determine a
sensor’s start-up time. See “Calibration” under “Maintenance” for more information about
using Maintenance Mode 2.

To activate Maintenance Mode, remove the Model GD-K77D’s cover, then press and hold
the Mode switch for three (3) seconds.
