LCD Display

During normal operation, the four line display simultaneously indicates the target gas,
current gas reading, and measuring unit of each active channel. The display also shows
messages, settings, and other data when you are operating the various selection menus
and operating modes.

LCD Contrast Adjust Pot

The LCD contrast adjust pot is located to the left of the LCD. If the LCD contrast is too
dark or too light to read easily, use a small phillips screwdriver adjust it until you can easily
read the LCD.

Status LEDs

The Beacon 410 includes seven status LEDs that indicate the current status of the
monitor: the RX & TX LEDs, the pilot LED, the fail LED, the alarm 1 LED, the alarm 2 LED,
and the alarm 3 LED (see Figure 2).

RX & TX LEDs

These LEDs indicate data being received (RX) and transmitted (TX) when the Beacon
410’s Modbus output is operating.

Pilot LED

The PILOT LED is on when the Beacon 410 is receiving incoming power, either AC or
DC power.

Fail LED

The fail LED turns on when the Beacon 410 is experiencing a fail condition. A fail
condition can be caused by a failure within the Beacon 410 or the detector heads
