Auto CAL

NOTICE

This function is only active if enabled here.
Select Settings > Sensor > Set auto calibration and

confirm.
Select Enable or Disable and confirm.

5.9.3 Sensor test
This function is only active for Polytron 8000 using the EC
sensor.
This function is only active if the sensor test or diagnostics
dongle is installed.
This function activates the sensor test. The instrument
routinely checks the sensor for proper function. If the sensor
does not pass the self-test, a warning or fault message will be
issued.
Select Settings > Sensor > Sensor test and confirm.

Select Enable or Disable and confirm.

5.9.4 Sensor lock
This function is only active for Polytron 8000 using the EC
sensor and Polytron 87X0 using the PIR 7X00 sensor.
This function activates the sensor lock feature.
Select Settings > Sensor > Sensor lock and confirm.

Select On or Off and confirm

!
CAUTION
If the instrument will reject any sensor whose part
turned number does not match the part number of the
On previously installed sensor.
If the instrument will accept any suitable sensor,
turned uploading the default settings of this sensor.
Off However, this will overwrite any customized
settings with the default settings of the new
sensor.
5.9.5 Sensor type
This function is only active for Polytron 8200 or Polytron 8310
using the DD, LC or DSIR sensor.

5.9.6 Gas settings
This function sets the gas type, measuring range and units of
measurement.
Not all sensors offer a selection of values.
Select Settings > Sensor > Gas setting and confirm.

The current measured gas is displayed.
Select a measured gas from the list and confirm.

The current unit of measurement is displayed.
Select the unit of measurement from the list and confirm.

The current full scale deflection is displayed.
Set the full scale deflection and confirm (only for certain

sensors, see sensor data sheet).
The new full scale deflection is displayed.
Select Next and confirm.

An overview of the new gas settings is displayed.
After review: Select Previous for changes and confirm with

[OK].
Select Confirm to accept the settings and confirm with

[OK].
Information about units of measurement
Depending on the target gas, the units of measurement can be
switched between:
ppb

ppm

Vol%

%LEL

%LIE

%UEG

The instrument automatically converts the sensor signal into
the selected unit of measurement. Units which are not
available for a particular sensor or selected substance will not
be shown.
Information about the full scale deflection (measuring
range) and the analog output of 20 mA.
Some sensors offer a min/max range for the full scale
deflection.
The selected full scale deflection determines the output of the
20 mA signal on the analog interface.
Example:
Required range 0 to 500 ppm CO (e.g. part number 6809605
default 300 ppm, range min/max = 50/1000 ppm).
Select full scale deflection as 500 ppm. The analog output will
be linear between 4 mA = 0 ppm and 20 mA = 500 ppm.
5.9.7 Reset sensor
This function resets all sensor parameters to the factory default
settings (see Section 7 on Page 34).
Select Settings > Sensor > Reset sensor required! and

confirm.
Select Confirm and confirm with [OK].
