Note
No data indication is denoted by three dashes (---) in the numeric values (see page 2-20 for an
example). When AGENT is turned on, it may take 30–90 seconds for gases identification and
readings to be displayed. Once identification is established, changes in concentration readings
will be virtually immediate.
