Quraşdırma və İlkin Əməliyyat
1. Qabın açılması və yoxlanılması
Carefully remove the ALTAIR 4X detector from its packaging. Inspect the device for any visible damage. Ensure all components listed in the packing slip are present.
2. Batareyanın doldurulması
Before first use, fully charge the detector's battery. Connect the charging cable to the detector and plug the charger into a power outlet. The charging indicator will show the charging status. A full charge typically takes several hours and provides up to 24 hours of operation.
3. Açma / Söndürmə
- Yandırmaq üçün: Press and hold the power button (usually marked with a circle and vertical line) until the display illuminates and the device performs its self-test.
- Söndürmək üçün: Press and hold the power button until the "Power Off?" prompt appears, then confirm by pressing the appropriate button (refer to on-screen prompts).
4. Initial Bump Test and Calibration
It is critical to perform a bump test before each day's use to verify sensor and alarm functionality. Full calibration should be performed regularly according to manufacturer recommendations and local regulations (e.g., every 3-6 months). Refer to the detailed calibration instructions provided with your calibration gas kit.
Detektorun işlədilməsi
1. Displeyin Anlaşılması
The large LCD displays real-time gas concentrations for LEL, O2, CO, and H2S. It also shows battery status, alarm indicators, and other operational messages.
2. Alarm Conditions
The ALTAIR 4X features multiple alarm types:
- Səsli Siqnal: A loud siren sound.
- Vizual Siqnal: Bright LED lights flash.
- Titrəmə siqnalı: The unit vibrates to alert the user.
- Man-Down Alarm: Activates if the detector remains motionless for a preset period, indicating a potential user incapacitation.
- User-Activated Alert: Allows the user to manually trigger an alarm to signal for help.
