Checking the Battery Charge
Check that your TIGER has sufficient charge for use. The battery icon (see Batteries) should show at
least two full segments. If not, the instrument should be charged to at least this level before use.
TIGER instruments leave the factory with their Rechargeable Battery Pack fully
charged. However, prolonged periods of storage may result in the Rechargeable
Battery Pack discharging. We recommend charging the instrument for seven
hours before first use.
A non-rechargeable AA Battery Pack can also be used, but it is recommended that it only be used if
no power is available to recharge the Rechargeable Battery Pack.
For further details of Battery Packs and recharging, refer to Batteries.
Select the Gas
Next, ensure that the instrument is set to detect the correct gas. This is displayed on the main
running screen above the current measurement units.
TIGER instruments leave Ion Science Ltd pre-set for gas type isobutylene.
Instruments are factory calibrated against isobutylene and all response factors are
equivalent to this. By changing the gas from the internal gas table all readings will
be given using that gas’s response factor.
Press the Information soft key and check the correct gas alarms are selected.
If necessary, change the selected gas. This can be done using TigerPC, or using the instrument.
Set Alarm Levels
We recommend that alarm levels are set to user specifications as soon as possible before the TIGER
is first used. See Alarms for details.
