Assembling the OmiScan Gas Analyzer
Unpack the units carefully, checking off each item and component against the
itemized packaging list included. If any component is missing or damaged, contact
your supplier immediately.
• The batteries in the base unit and the handset will need to be installed and charged
before either unit can be used (see ‘Power Management’, page 7).
• The base station battery compartment is on the underside of the unit, secured by
two cross-headed bolts. Unscrew the cover, and secure the bigger battery pack
into the cover tray with the velcro strap; connect the in-line connector to the base
station. Refit the cover and tighten the two screws (do not over tighten).
• Remove the handset rubber protection cover to access the underside of the case
cover; remove the four cross-headed screws and place to one side. Lift off the
bottom cover and place to one side. Connect the smaller of the battery packs to
the in-line connector and place the battery pack in the recess through the PCB;
taking care to keep the supply cables from catching the cover. Position the cover
and replace the four screws (do not over tighten). Refit rubber protection cover.
• Place the handset in the base station ensuring that it is pushed firmly into place
and clips into the bottom securing clip.
IMPORTANT: BATTERY PACKS SHOULD ALWAYS BE FITTED BEFORE THE
CHARGER UNIT IS CONNECTED.
• Connect the mains charging unit into the round connector at the rear of the base
station and the mains plug into a wall socket. With the mains switched on, the
middle red LED on the top surface of the base station should illuminate to indicate
that the base station is charging. The handset display will switch ON automatically
and the battery symbol in the top right hand corner will indicate progressive
charging.
• If applicable, while the batteries are charging, install the Analyzer software onto
your PC (see ‘Installation’, page 46).
• When fully charged the red base station LED will extinguish and the lower amber
LED will illuminate to indicate the base station battery is on trickle charge until the
charging unit is disconnected. Likewise, the battery symbol on the handset will
remain static showing a fully charged battery, which will be on trickle charge until
mains charging unit is disconnected.
