The mouthpiece is a critical portion of the sample assembly and specifically
designed to be used with the Alco-Sensor FST®.
The cross section is a "D" shape which helps orient the mouthpiece when
placing it on the device. Inserting the closed end of the mouthpiece into the
mouthpiece channel, with the flat side of the mouthpiece downward, and
pressing down will place the mouthpiece into position. The two holes on the
underside of the mouthpiece will naturally align and attach to the appropriate
ports of the Alco-Sensor FST®.
The display turns on when the device is powered ON. If you wish to back light
the display, this can be done by pressing and holding the ON button down for an
additional second.
Various commands and symbols appear on the display to direct the operator
through the testing procedure and alert the operator of improper testing
conditions detected by the system.
The ON button (labelled with an "I" symbol within a diamond shape) is the
larger of the two buttons on the Alco-Sensor FST® case. This button is located
opposite the display and will naturally rest under the operator's forefinger when
holding the device. The primary function of the button is to turn the device ON,
and this is accomplished by pressing the button down for one second. A beep
and the display powering on will indicate that power up has been successful.
(Note: If you want to illuminate the display, hold the ON button down for an
extra second on power up or press the ON button at any point when the
temperature is being displayed and the display will illuminate.)
The OFF button (labelled with an "O" symbol within a rectangular shape) is
located on the Alco-Sensor FST® case beneath the display. Depressing it and
holding it down for two seconds, during normal operation, will manually turn
the device off. Note: The device does have an auto power down feature, which
powers the device down when it has not been used for a period of time.
The battery cover is located on the base of the Alco-Sensor FST®. Two AA
batteries should run well in excess of 1000 tests at room temperature.
CAUTION: Batteries should only be replaced by an Alco-Sensor FST®
calibrator.
