What to do if DOD Gas Detectors show Gas Alarm Level 1?
If the DOD Gas Detectors indicate a Gas Alarm Level 1, it signifies a gas release exceeding Alarm Level 1. You should determine the release point.
Why is the point disabled due to high background on DOD Gas Detectors?
If the DOD Gas Detectors unit displays 'Point Disabled Due to High Background', it means a point has been disabled because of a high background. Press the Verify Optics button in the Load Tape screen.
What does Optic Calibration Required mean on DOD Gas Detectors?
If the DOD Gas Detectors display 'Optic Calibration Required', it means the optic system is unable to calibrate automatically. Refer to the optic cleaning procedure.
How to fix Gas Configuration Error on DOD CL96?
If you encounter a 'Gas Configuration Error' on your DOD Gas Detectors, it means the system can't find the necessary files to detect the selected gas family. To fix this, remove the rear panel, verify the USB thumb drive is properly connected, and power cycle the CL96.
What to do if DOD CL96 Cannot Get Background Values?
If the DOD Gas Detectors unit displays 'Cannot Get Background Values', it indicates a communication issue between the optic block and PC. To resolve this: power cycle the analyzer, press verify optics, verify background is within range in system screen and refer to optic troubleshooting procedure.
How to fix High Background error on DOD CL96 Gas Detectors?
If the DOD Gas Detectors unit shows 'High Background', it means the background value is out of range. You can try the following: power cycle the analyzer, press verify optics, verify background is within range in system screen and refer to optic troubleshooting procedure.
What does 'ChemLogic tape low' mean on DOD CL96?
When the DOD Gas Detectors unit displays 'ChemLogic tape low', it means the tape counter's days remaining value matches the warning value setting. Replace the Chemlogic cassette and reset the counter.
What causes Modbus Comm. Failure in DOD CL96 Gas Detectors?
If your DOD Gas Detectors unit displays 'Modbus Comm. Failure', there has been an interruption during the Modbus communication process. Try power cycling the unit. If the problem persists, contact DOD Technologies, Inc.
