11 . If the GX-6000 experiences a sensor failure during start up, a screen
indicating which sensor failed appears and the buzzer sounds a double
pulsing tone once per second. In the example below, the CH

sensor has
failed.
If you wish to continue, press and release the RESET button to
acknowledge the failure. The gas reading for the failed sensor will be
replaced by “- - - -”. Replace the failed sensor as soon as possible.

Measuring Mode Screen appears displaying the current gas reading for
each target gas.
Performing a Demand Zero
Before using the GX-6000, it is recommended to set the fresh air readings for
the target gases by performing a demand zero. This will set the CH
4
, H
2
S,
CO, and PID channels to zero and the OXY channel to 20.9%.
1 . Find a fresh-air environment. This is an environment free of toxic or
combustible gases and of normal oxygen content (20.9%).
2 . Turn on the unit as described above in “Turning On the GX-6000”.
