Switching on
(1)
Open compressed air cylinder.
(2)
If pressure > 15 bar, SingleLine SCOUT starts up.
a) Electronic component check:
All LEDs are flashing once, an acoustic signal sounds and the gauge LEDs light up green.
The device is ready for use.
If only red LEDs light up and no acoustic signal sounds, do not use the device. There is an
electronical damage.
b) Optional: Press manual alarm button within first 30 seconds after self test was confirmed.
Double press the manual alarm button to start the internal tightness check of the system (No
dropping pressure > 10 bar from initial pressure - 60 seconds).
Self test is starting; red and yellow LEDs are flashing while the test is running.
If there is no pressure drop within 60 seconds, the device tightness is confirmed by an
acoustic sound and green gauge lights flashing.
If the pressure drop is > 10 bar within 60 seconds, the test is stopped with an acoustic sound
and red LEDs flashing. The device is not tight. Do not use the device.
(3)
If pressure < 15 bar, SingleLine SCOUT does not start up.
If only red LEDs light up and no acoustic signal sounds, the pressure level or battery capacity
might be to low.
4.2
Switching off
Switching off the SingleLine SCOUT is only possible in the pressure-free status. The device is consid-
ered to be pressure-free if the measured pressure is less than 15 bar.
(1)
Close the valve(s) of the compressed air cylinder(s) and vent the compressed air breathing
apparatus via the lung governed demand valve (see operating manual for compressed air
breathing apparatus).
An acoustic signal sounds between 60 and 0 bar.
(2)
Push the alarm button twice.
The pressure alarm switches off.
(3)
Push the alarm button twice.
An acoustic signal sounds.
The device switches off.
4.3
Pressure Status Message
While operating, the device makes an acoustic sound at the following pressure thresholds:
GB
•
1st pressure threshold – Single beep
•
2nd pressure threshold – Double beep
•
60 bar – Signal whistle – double beep repeated until confirmed with double press below 15 bar
These thresholds can be changed using the MSA A2 Software in combination with 10181672 as PC
interface.
See MSA A2 Software for more details.
