a Warning
Disabling a sensor should only be performed with 
extreme caution. The disabled sensor cannot measure 
and alarm against the applicable gas.
If a sensor fails, disabling the sensor deactivates the fail alarm. The 
sensor should be replaced and enabled as soon as possible. The 
detector will function normally with the remaining enabled sensors.
Note
Detectors that are configured for a 1, 2, 3, or 4 gases may con-
tain a dummy sensor in one of the four sensor locations.
After selecting the desired sensor, the following screen displays.
Press C to toggle between enable/disable (sensor can be enabled at 
any time).
If disabled, the readings and the gas type for the sensor do not display 
when in normal operation.
If a sensor is enabled but it is not installed in the detector, FAIL flashes 
above the gas type of the missing sensor.
If all the sensors are disabled, the following screens display.
 
Enable one or more sensors to exit and access normal operation.
