3.2 Normal Operation
In normal operation, the Intelligent Transmitter Module (ITM) display will be blank and will display the gas
reading once every 10 seconds for about 2 seconds (normally appear as "0"). At any time, swiping a magnet
across either PGM1 or PGM2 will cause the ITM to display the range and gas type (i.e. "ppm H2S"). If the
sensor is actively experiencing any diagnostic faults, a swipe of the magnet will cause the display to scroll the
fault condition. Refer to Section 5 Service and Maintenance for more information on fault conditions.
3.3 Calibration Mode
Zero and span calibration should be performed on a routine basis (quarterly minimum is advised) to ensure
reliable performance. If a sensor has been exposed to any de-sensitizing gases, or to very high over-range
combustible gas levels, re-calibration should be considered. Unless otherwise specified, span adjustment is
recommended at 50% of the full scale range.
To enter calibration mode hold the magnet over PGM1 for 3 seconds. If the sensor is experiencing a fault
condition the "
►" prompt will not appear until the fault(s) have been displayed. When the ITM enters
