Intended use
Dräger X-pid 9000/9500 is a portable gas detector for continuous measurement
of the total concentration of multiple volatile organic compounds in Seeker
mode and discontinuous measurement of the concentration of individual
hazardous substances in Analysis mode in ambient workplace air and in
explosion-hazard areas.

Operating concept
The gas detector is controlled by the mobile app. Operation primarily takes
place via the touch display and the control elements on the mobile app user
interface. The physical buttons on the control unit can also be used. The mobile
app contains five menu items, which can be used to navigate through different
views:
