All newly purchased RAE Systems instruments should be bump tested by exposing the sensor(s) to known concentration calibration gas before the instrument is put into service, and later, prior to each use. A bump test is defined as a brief exposure of the monitor to the calibration gas and the sensors to show response and trigger the lowest alarm set point for each sensor.
Important This Quick Reference provides operational information for the QRAE II. It is not intended as a substitute for the User’s Guide. The User’s Guide must be carefully read by all individuals who have or will have the responsibility of using, maintaining, or servicing this product.
Setting Up The Charging Cradle Before charging the rechargeable Li-ion battery, you must set up the charging cradle. Its AC/DC adapter is designed for use anywhere in the world and is able to handle voltages between 100 VAC and 240 VAC at either 50 Hz or 60 Hz.
Turning The QRAE II On Hold down [MODE] for 2 seconds. When starting up, the QRAE II simultaneously turns the backlight on and off, beeps once, blinks once, and vibrates. It performs diagnostics and tells you current settings.
User Interface The QRAE II’s user interface consists of the display, LEDs, an alarm transducer, and two keys, labeled [MODE] and [Y/+]. The LCD display provides visual feedback that includes time, sensor mode, battery condition, and datalog enable/disable status. User Interface Icons...
Everyday Use With the QRAE II turned off, press and hold [MODE]. When the display turns on, release the key. The QRAE II is now in the normal operating mode (Normal Mode). Note: For more information on Normal Mode, refer to the QRAE II User’s Guide.
• The QRAE II Multi Gas detector must be calibrated if it does not pass a Bump Test, or at least once every 180 days, depending on use and sensor exposure to poisons and contaminants.

20.9% oxygen and without any organic, toxic or combustible gas impurities. This “Zero Air” can be from a cylinder, clean ambient air, or ambient air purified through a charcoal filter. Caution! If your QRAE II is a diffusion model, do not use the Calibration Adapter while performing zero calibration in fresh air.
When calibration is complete, the screen displays this message: Multiple Sensor Calibrated! If a sensor fails, try calibrating again. If calibration fails again, replace the sensor. Note: If you want to perform a single-sensor calibration, refer to the QRAE II User’s Guide.
