THREE KEY POINTS TO OPERATIONAL SAFETY To assure both personnel and facility safety, it is extremely important to observe all transmitter installation and operational safety requirements.
Model 4688-IR / Model 4679-IR Operation & Maintenance Manual Transmitter Quick Start 1. Mount and wire the transmitter (See "Transmitter Installation"). 2. Apply power to the transmitter. All segments and indicators on the display will turn on for 2 seconds, then will turn off for 2 seconds. The transmitter will subsequently enter a 30 second warm-up period (countdown shown on the display).

A local display reports concentration readings in units of either %LEL or %V/V (user selectable), as well as system status. The operator panel interface uses a Scott Instruments magnetic screwdriver for accessing the system parameters and may be password protected. Non-intrusive user setup and calibration permits operation and maintenance from within classified areas.
Model 4688-IR / Model 4679-IR Operation & Maintenance Manual Lower Explosive Limit - Model 4688-IR ONLY Combustible gas mixtures can be ignited only between certain concentration limits. These limits are known as the Lower Explosive Limit (LEL) and the Upper Explosive Limit (UEL). When these terms are used, it is assumed that a normal atmospheric air background (20.9% O ) is present.
Model 4688-IR / 4679-IR Operation & Maintenance Manual General Instrument Overview Map Alphanumeric Display - Used for displaying decimal values in the range -999 to -0.00 and 0.000 to 9999, hexadecimal values in the range 0000 to FFFF, and text labels representing parameters during user setup.
Code (CEC) requirements. All conduit connections should be sealed and contain a drain loop to protect the transmitter electronics from moisture. 10. Direct bold sunlight. Scott Instruments recommends using a sunshade if the instrument will be mounted in direct sunlight.
Model 4688-IR / 4679-IR Operation & Maintenance Manual Using the Rain Shield and Filters Using different combinations of the transmitter's filters optimizes air flow to the detector. 1. For Outdoor Use - Non-Hose Down Enviroments: Use the rain guard (096-2709), but not optics assembly inner filter (077-0166).
Model 4688-IR / 4679-IR Operation & Maintenance Manual Wiring and Power Current Draw Upon instrument start-up, the GasPlus-IR will experience a 500 mA transient current draw. Immediately thereafter, current draw will drop to the instrument's 250 mA i , eventually "settling" down" to the 130 mA typical current draw.
Model 4688-IR / Model 4679-IR Operation & Maintenance Manual Current Sourcing and Sinking Modes (see Figure 7) The GasPlus-IR may be wired in a current sourcing (most typical) or a current sinking mode. As the names suggest, these 2 modes describe the direction of current flow in the 4-20 mA loop connecting the GasPlus-IR transmitter and its receiver.

Navigating the Instrument All adjustments on the GasPlus-IR are made non-intrusively through the front panel of the instrument with a Scott Instruments magnetic screwdriver. A "Parameter Navigation Map" is also provided at the beginning of the "Technical Reference" section. Four keys are used for all settings: Also referred to as the "Escape"...
Model 4688-IR / Model 4679-IR Operation & Maintenance Manual From RUN mode, the user can access the menus by touching the magnet to (Up) or (Down) key then selecting the E (Enter) key. The Z (Esc) key is used to back out of the menu and return to RUN mode. The instrument continues to sense gas and transmit a signal when it is not in RUN mode.
Latched alarms may be reset only after conditions have returned to normal (concentration is below the alarm reset point). To reset a latched alarm, momentarily apply, then remove, the Scott Instruments magnet to any key. Observe that the specific alarm indication has cleared from the main display.

Model 4688-IR / 4679-IR Operation & Maintenance Manual The FACT Menu FACT parameters are rarely used under "field" conditions. Typically these parameters are only used for troubleshooting and service issues. Refer to the "Troubleshooting & Maintenance" section for assistance in malfunction diagnosis.
Model 4688-IR / 4679-IR Operation & Maintenance Manual Maintenance Maintenance Safety The GasPlus-IR transmitter should be properly grounded before any maintenance is performed. Appropriate procedures to declassify the area (if necessary) should be followed. Routine Maintenance Inspecting Dust Filters Dust filters should be visually checked on a routine basis and replaced, if necessary.
Refer to "Cleaning the Mirror Assembly" to resolve dirt buildup issues. If it is unlikely that a dirt buildup is responsible OR the cleaning procedure has been performed with no results, contact the Scott Instruments Service department for further troubleshooting assistance (see "Contacting Scott Instruments").
