  • Page 3: Basic Operation

    Normal Operating mode. The Rl101M offers reed switches which allow unobtrusive calibration, meaning you do not need to remove the Lid to the Rl101M. The reeds switch acts as a button with the redline magnet. When the magnet is placed close to the reed it engages like a button, when the magnet is taken away it disengages.
  • Page 4: Normal Operation

    1. Normal Operation The RL101M Head unit monitors the LEL gas level. If the gas level is greater than or equal to the background setting, the unit will send a message every 5 seconds; if less than the background setting, the unit will send a message every 5 minutes.
  • Page 5 3. Calibration Before calibration, allow ten minutes for the senor to warm up. To place the Rl101M into CAL Mode, press the MENU button twice. "cAL" will flash on the display. The RL102m Head unit monitors the gas level but does not send messages to the monitor when in CALIBRATION mode. When calibration gas is applied, the unit will display the reading.

    5. Set Background Gas Level To access to this feature press TEST once, then MENU once. "brd" will flash on the display when in Background Level mode (default setting is 7). Use the Up and Down buttons to adjust the Background level.
  • Page 7 10. Radio Signal Strength Input To enter into this mode press TEST twice and MENU once. "rIn" will flash on the display. This mode allows the Head unit and Monitor to exchange messages. The monitor knows that the Head unit is in this mode and resends the message.
  • Page 8: Installation

    The Rl101M Head may be mounted at a customer specified height with the sensor housing pointed down towards the ground. For best signal strength position the glass window in line of sight of the Redline Monitor, also make sure there are no metal/nonmetal obstructions so signal will not be blocked. MAINTENANCE Redline Instruments recommends you check battery voltage every 90 days and Calibration of the head every 30 days.
