Summary

Cost Savings with Dräger X-dock

Why Do I Save Costs When Using Dräger X-dock?

Explains cost savings through reduced gas consumption of the X-dock compared to older methods.

Dräger X-dock Software Features

Benefits of a Central Database

Details advantages of a central database for data viewing, saving, and analysis with X-dock Manager.

X-dock Manager Standard vs. Professional Version

Outlines features distinguishing Standard (user admin, Cockpit) from Professional (issue/return, report assistant).

PC Software Licensing and Cost

Clarifies that database management is free, but X-dock Manager software requires a license.

PC Software Installation Considerations

Covers basic installation needs like IP configuration and firewall settings for PC software.

Accessing Data Without X-dock Manager

Describes using a USB stick to copy certificates and dataloggers from the station.

Draegerware Support for X-dock

Confirms Draegerware support for X-dock with proper server installation and configuration.

Functionality of the Scheduler

Explains the scheduler's capability to automate test processes at predefined times.

Internal Datalogger Service Life

Discusses datalogger lifespan based on configuration, test frequency, and data readout.

Viewing Dataloggers

Guides on using CC Vision or Gas Vision via X-dock Manager to view datalogger files.

CC Vision and Gas Vision Dependency

Addresses the current role of CC Vision and Gas Vision, with future integration into X-dock Manager.

Configuring Devices for Test Gas Assignment

Explains configuring devices using CC-Vision for correct test gas assignment and automatic conversion.

Emailing Reports

Details how to send reports via email using X-dock Manager with SMTP server configuration.

Identifying Overdue Tests and Adjustments

Provides methods to identify overdue devices by sorting or using specific reports in the Professional Version.

Dräger X-dock Miscellaneous Topics

Using Modules with Different Firmware

States that modules and masters require the same firmware for station compatibility.

Supported Printer Types

Mentions support for Windows-integrated printers and postscript compliance for direct printing.

Quick vs. Extended Bump Test Difference

Differentiates quick bump tests (alarm level) from extended tests (sensor accuracy).

Quick Bump Test Details

Explains quick bump tests check pre-alarm threshold with defined minimum/maximum concentrations and time.

Extended Bump Test Details

Details extended bump tests compare actual gas concentration to device indication within a tolerance band.

Setting Test Tolerances

Confirms tolerance setting per sensor via CC-Vision, allowing custom overrides.

Recommended Gassing Order

Suggests connecting mixed and EX gases to the first valve for efficient sensor processing.

Gas Application Test Below Alarm Limit

Allows gas application tests below alarm limits if concentrations are within an accuracy window.

Charging Option for Gas Detection Instruments

States charging is available for instruments with rechargeable batteries on Plus variant modules.

Individual Mode Option Explained

Describes the pre-set individual mode for simple test start via flap closure in logged-out condition.

Using Third-Party Gas Cylinders
