MGC Pump User’s Manual DETECTOR RECORDS (LOGS) During operation, the detector records all usage activity. These records can be downloaded from the detector via the IR Link software and an IR Link or from the MGC Pump Dock. The Event, Bump and Calibration Logs are always downloaded. The user may also choose to download different amounts of the data log to reduce the transfer time.

MGC Pump User’s Manual Maintenance Notification- If maintenance notification is enabled, the detector will periodically flash the maintenance LED. Otherwise, if the option is disabled, the detector will only show the maintenance text on the display. Pump Test- Will require the pump to be tested (block and unblock) on startup. Dock Lock- Dock Lock prevents calibrations and bump tests without the use of the IR Link or the MGC Pump Dock.
MGC Pump User’s Manual Activity LED Period – This option periodically flashes a single LED on the detector at a rate specified by the user to indicate that the detector is on. The time between flashes can be set and adjusted through the GCT IR Link software or GCT Manager software.
MGC Pump User’s Manual DETECTOR MAINTENANCE Applying Gas from a Gas Cylinder The detector contains an internal pump that is continually drawing in gas through the gas inlet. The best way to apply gas from a cylinder is through the use of a demand flow (vacuum-actuated) regulator. This type of regulator will supply the exact amount of gas that the detector is drawing with the pump.
MGC Pump User’s Manual Bump Testing The detector can be configured to keep track of regular bump testing intervals. When the detector has exceeded the bump interval, it will display “BUMP DUE” until it has been successfully bump tested. To bump test the detector, either insert the detector into the MGC Pump Dock, or manually apply gas from the bump test screen described below.
MGC Pump User’s Manual The detector will first automatically zero the sensors at the current baseline reading, then the detector will prompt to "APPLY GAS." Once the screen displays “APPLY GAS”, apply gas to the detector’s gas inlet. As the detector detects gas, the sensor readings will be displayed and adjusted throughout the calibration.
- Also available in a Hi-Pressure version. GCT IR Link: (P/N: GCT-IR-LINK) - Infrared communications device and USB cable used for communications be- tween detector and computer to easily make firmware updates, adjust detector settings and record data.
