Activate a New Detector
1. Move to a normal atmosphere (20.9% v/v O
2. Press and hold the pushbutton until a 5 second countdown is displayed, and then
continue to hold until the countdown is complete.
3. When the countdown is complete, the LCD and LEDs turn on and then turn off. The
detector performs an internal diagnostic test.
4. When the diagnostic test is successful, the alarm setpoints are displayed and the LEDs
flash.
5. The sensor stabilization countdown is displayed. During the countdown, the detector
vibrates continuously for 20 seconds. The time required to stabilize varies depending
on sensor type. When the countdown reaches 0, the LEDs flash and the audible alarm
beeps.
6. The detector is in normal operating mode when the gas type and concentration are
displayed.
Normal Operating Mode
When the detector is in normal operating mode, the type of gas
detected is permanently displayed. The detected concentration of the
gas is displayed until it is disrupted by a pushbutton action, gas alarm,
or error event.
Operating Life
When the detector is activated for the first time, the operating life
countdown is displayed. Press the pushbutton to display remaining
operating life.
90 Days or Less Remaining
When the operating life countdown reaches 90 days or less before
expiry, the countdown display changes to days. The countdown
displays the remaining operating life in days until the countdown
reaches 24 hours or less before expiry.
24 Hours or Less Remaining
When the operating life countdown reaches 24 hours or less before
expiry, the countdown display changes to hours, and the EXPIRY!
warning and non-compliance symbol are displayed.
End of Operating Life
When the operating life countdown ends, the detector deactivates and
detector safety functions are disabled. It is possible to retrieve event
logs for a limited time after expiry. The EXPIRY! warning and
non-compliance symbol are displayed for up to 30 days after expiry.
Internal Diagnostic Tests
Activated detectors automatically perform one internal diagnostic test every 24 hours. If the
internal diagnostic test fails, the diagnostic fail-safe begins.
Diagnostic Fail-Safe
1. The EXPIRY! warning and non-compliance symbol are displayed.
2. The detector beeps and vibrates.
3. The LEDs flash 2 times per second for 15 seconds.
4. OFF or an error code is displayed. The detector is deactivated.
It is possible to retrieve the event logs for a limited time after expiry. If you are unable to
retrieve the event logs, contact BW.
Alarms and Warnings
An alarm is initiated when the sensor is exposed to a gas concentration that exceeds alarm
setpoints. The alarm persists until the alarm gas concentration returns to an acceptable
range. Battery life decreases rapidly when the detector is in alarm condition.
Low Alarm
Audible: 1 beep per second
Visual: 1 flash per second
Vibration: 1 vibration per second
High Alarm
Audible: 2 beeps per second
Visual: 2 flashes per second
Vibration: 2 vibrations per second
SINGLE-GAS DETECTOR

) that is free of hazardous gas.
2
Over-Limit and Under-Limit Alarms
If the gas concentration is beyond the sensor range, OL (over-limit) or
-OL (under-limit) is displayed.
Audible: 2 beeps per second
Visual: 2 flashes per second
Vibration: 2 vibrations per second
Automatic Zero Reminder for O
For O
models only, the Automatic Zero Reminder is displayed when
2
more than 24 hours have elapsed since the last successful zero
procedure was performed.
Peak Readings
The peak readings symbol is displayed when the sensor is exposed to
a gas concentration that exceeds the alarm setpoints. It is no longer
displayed when more than 24 hours have passed since the last alarm,
or when a successful bump test is performed via an IntelliDoX or
MicroDock II station.
Non-compliance Symbol and LED Indicators
The non-compliance warning symbol is displayed when:
•
an internal diagnostic test fails;
•
a bump test, calibration or zero procedure fails;
•
a bump test or calibration is due, if enabled;
•
the sensor is exposed to a gas concentration that exceeds alarm setpoints, if enabled.
The non-compliance warning symbol is no longer displayed when more than 24 hours have
passed since the last alarm, or when a successful bump test or calibration is performed
(manual calibration or via an IntelliDoX or MicroDock II station). The non-compliance
warning symbol is permanently displayed when the service-life countdown reaches 24 hours
or less before expiry, and for up to 30 days after expiry.
When Non-compliance after gas exposure is enabled through Fleet Manager II via
an IntelliDoX station, the LEDs flash in an alternating pattern when the non-compliance
warning symbol is displayed. When the symbol is first displayed, the top LEDs flash. After
30 seconds, the side LEDs flash. After 30 seconds, the pattern repeats until the non-
compliance warning symbol is no longer displayed.
NOTE: When the detector is bump tested via a MicroDock II station, an abnormal test
result may occur if non-compliance LEDs are flashing. To suspend the flashing for up to 10
minutes, press and release the pushbutton. When the flashing stops, insert the detector and
perform the test. If the bump test fails, the LEDs resume flashing.
Recall Events and Settings
When the detector is in normal operating mode, press the pushbutton at any time to scroll
through events and settings that are not empty or disabled through Fleet Manager II via an
IntelliDoX station. BW Clip Real Time flashes, vibrates and beeps.
While an event or setting is displayed, press the pushbutton to scroll to the next available
event or setting. If you do not press the pushbutton, or if you have reached the last available
event or setting, the detector returns to normal operation. Events and settings are displayed
in this order:
1. Peak Reading, if available, and when a maximum gas exposure event has occurred
within the past 24 hours.
2. Time of Peak Reading, if Real-time Clock display is enabled.
3. Operating Life, the remaining operating life of the detector in months, days or hours.
4. Low Alarm Setpoint
5. High Alarm Setpoint
6. Real-time Clock, if enabled.
7. Firmware Version
8. Next Bump Due, if enabled.
9. Next Calibration Due, if enabled.
10. Hibernation, for 2-year H
S and CO models only.
