History Files Verification

Frequency: Annually or on alarm
In addition to the annual or on-alarm verification, the user must also read and
save regularly the Hydran M2-X's history files, using the Perception software.
If the data is read from the Hydran M2-X, follow the instructions in Section 3.4.2.
The data can be collected using the host or laptop computer running the Perception
software.
The history files are verified as follows:
1. Consult the Events history file to investigate suspicious alarms and other
events.
2. Consult the Short Term and Long Term history files to study the evolution of
the gas level, moisture level, hourly and daily trends, and averages.
3. Ensure the hourly and daily trends periods are optimized; change the values if
necessary.
4. Examine every alarm setting; change the values if necessary.
Note: Alarm setting should be modified by authorized personnel only.
