Point Hold

7.3.1 Automatic Point Hold

During routine operation, when any sample point detects gas that results in a caution/warning/alarm
(C/W/A), the device automatically holds that sample point for an additional four gas measurement
cycles to analyze the point further and provide more data. When the additional four measurement
cycles are complete, the device goes to the next point and resumes routine sample times.
When the sampling cycle returns to the point that triggered the automatic hold, the automatic hold
state continues unless the non-latching event no longer exists (that is, the gas concentration
decreases below the C/W/A threshold) or the latching alarm event has been reset.

7.3.2 Manual Point Hold

7.4

Predictive Warnings

When a point goes above the acceptable threshold for flow rate, sensor performance, or pump perfor-
mance, a predictive warning pop-up shows on the dashboard.
Predictive warnings indicate that it may be necessary to do troubleshooting or replace a part, not that
there is a critical issue with the flow rate, sensor, or pump.
To set the duration of the Hold feature, use the
buttons.
To disable the point alarm for the duration of the hold, select
the "Disable Alarm" checkbox.
To activate the Hold feature, select "Hold".
To cancel the Hold feature, select "Cancel" or the X at the
top right corner.
NOTE: The Hold feature can only be applied to one point at
a time. During the hold duration for the selected point, the
"Hold" button is inactive for all other points until the hold
duration for the selected point has completed.
