Chapter 4: Operation
Overview
This chapter describes the Beacon 800 Gas Monitor in normal operation. This chapter
also describes the Beacon 800 in alarm 1, alarm 2, and fail conditions, and suggests
responses to these conditions.
Normal Operation
Normal operation is defined as follows:
• the start-up procedure is complete.
• the Beacon 800 is not indicating an alarm 1, alarm 2, or fail condition.
• the Beacon 800 is not running the Configuration menu.
During normal operation, the Beacon 800 simultaneously displays the target gas, unit of
measure, and current gas reading for all active channels. The top screen displays
channels 1 through 4; the bottom screen displays channels 5 through 8.
