4.5.13 4-20mA Output setting – "420"
To select the 4-20mA Output Option, in normal mode, push the Next button to get to "Con" or the Configuration
menu. Then push the Enter button to enter the Con menu. The twelfth selection is the "420" or 4-20mA Output
Option. Push Next eleven times to get to "420" then Enter. If the 4-20mA is "On" push Next to turn it to "OFF"
(flashing) then push Enter to confirm the change (solid) and push Enter again to return to "420" in the Con menu.
Push Next until "End" is displayed then push Enter to get back to normal operation.

5 Troubleshooting

5.1 On-Board Diagnostics

The GD-6 monitors all critical functions of the unit through software diagnostics that continuously test and verify
unit operations. If a problem is found, the unit will switch to a fail-safe/error mode or trouble condition. In this error
mode, the Alarm relay will be activated, the 4-20 mA current loop will go to 24 mA, the unit will display the error
code, the green status indicator LED light will flash, and the buzzer will chirp intermittently. The Fan relay will also
engage if the Trouble Fan Setting Option is set to "ON". This is a safety precaution. To clear this mode, simply turn
off power to the unit for a few seconds or push the TEST switch (inside the unit). This will cause the unit to restart
the 1-minute self-test cycle.

5.1.1 4-20mA troubleshooting

0 mA is most likely a connection problem
•
• 4-20 mA is normal gas reading range (0-50% LEL)
24 mA indicates a Trouble condition
•
