of gas used to calibrate your CO Plussensor, the alarm settings willautomatically be altered to reflect thenew hazard.You can also change the reading of thecombustible sensor from LEL to CH 4 .Doing this allows you to viewcombustible gas in percent by volume foran area versus viewing the percent of thelower explosive limit.Note: Older instruments may not offerthis option, but it may be available ifinstrument software is updated. CallBiosystems for details.Instruments equipped with the nonspecificchlorine sensor will have theoption to change the readout betweenchlorine (Cl 2 ) and chlorine dioxide (ClO 2 ).See your instruments owner’s manual fora detailed explanation of this feature.Note: Once this change is made andsaved all chlorine sensor readings willregister as ClO 2 until it is changedback to Cl 2 .The “Defaults” button will reset theCalibration Gas Concentration values tothe factory defaults for each installedsensor.4.5.5 Configuration / CalibrationHistory TabThe “Calibration History” tab on theConfiguration Settings form will displaythe last 8 fresh air and span calibrationdates for each sensor.A 'double-click' on any of the calibrationdates will display the exact time of thecalibration.tab on the Configuration Settings form, alist for current User ID and Locationsstored in the instrument will be shown.The user can modify each list byselection the "Edit” or "New" buttons.The "Edit” button will edit the currentselected item in the list. The "New"button will create a new entry in the list inthe next available position in the list.Note: If the User or Locations lists arefull the "New" button will be disabled.Once these lists are uploaded into theinstrument memory, they can be selectedand used to "tag" a monitoring sessionwith user and location information at anytime while the instrument is being used inthe field.Note: In the PhD Ultra, the selectedUser and Location will be used thenext time the PhD Ultra is logging asession. In the Cannonball3, PhD5and PhD Lite, the current User ID andLocation must be set in theinstrument each time the instrumentis turned on.4.5.7 Configuration ControlsWhen you have finished editing theinstrument's configuration, press the"Upload" button to upload the newconfiguration.During the upload, a progress bar willdisplay the percentage of upload and theStatus Line will display the current action.4.5.6 Configuration /User/Locations TabAfter selecting the "User/ Locations"19Note: For instruments that connectby IrDA, the connection may need tobe reestablished prior to upload.

Aprinter dialog box will appear:4.6 Clear Datalogger MemoryNote: This section assumes that youhave initiated the connection betweenthe PC and the instrument asdescribed above in section 4.1 for thePhD5, PhD Ultra and Toxi Ultra or asdescribed above in section 4.2 for theCannonball3, MultiPro, MultiVision,PhD Lite, ToxiPro/Ltd and ToxiVisionEX.1. Click on the "Clear Datalogger"button. Follow the instructions givenon the screen for completing theconnection between the instrumentand the PC.2. Once the connection is established,the following box will appear to verifythat you want to clear the dataloggermemory.Alarm Settings are not affected by thisprocedure.4.7 Setting Instrument Date andTimeNote: This section assumes that youhave initiated the connection betweenthe PC and the instrument asdescribed above in section 4.1 for thePhD5, PhD Ultra and Toxi Ultra or asdescribed above in section 4.2 for theCannonball3, MultiPro, MultiVision,PhD Lite, ToxiPro/Ltd and ToxiVisionEX.Select the "Set Time" button. Theinstrument's Date and Time will besynchronized to the PC clock. After theprocess is finished, a message box willdisplay the time that has been sent to theinstrument.5.
