The Setup Menu contains the screens necessary to configure the CL1/CL2 for operation. The setup menu is
not password protected by default but may be password protected (see service menu).

5.6.2 Tape Saver
(Default Configuration: Disabled)
Tape Saver Mode is used to reduce tape advancement during a gas release. Three tape saver modes are
available on the CL1/CL2: Fixed Cycle mode
(Default)
, Single Reading, and Continuous. Use the upper left
soft key to select among the three modes.
DANGER: Make sure the Tape Saver Modes are completely understood before enabling. Tape Saver modes
allow the operator to bypass continuous gas monitoring.
Figure 5.15
In Fixed Cycle mode the Minutes entered on the screen is the MINIMUM time each cycle will take regardless
of whether gas is detected or not. The maximum time of the cycle is the normal cycle time of the CL1/CL2
tape being used (normally approx. 54 minutes). Enter the # of minutes (1-54) which will be the minimum time
before tape advance. If gas is detected and the tape becomes saturated in less than the time specified, the
system will wait until the cycle time is complete before advancing. When this occurs the timer on the
Analysis screen will begin counting down the # of seconds remaining until tape advance. In Fixed Cycle
Mode the conc. Level is not used and will always show a non-zero value.
In Single reading mode the time specified (minutes) is the exact analysis cycle time. At the start of each
cycle the system will take 1 reading and report the concentration (including zero). The timer will then
continue to countdown to zero before advancing to the next cycle. In Single Reading Mode the conc. Level is
not used and will always show 0.
