7. When all equipment has been properly installed,
ensure that system alarms are appropriately
bypassed and apply power to the system.
8. Perform the alignment procedure as previously
described in this manual.
Important
If the AutroPath HC800 module had an aperture
installed, install the aperture after performing
the alignment procedure (install aperture on the
transmitter, not on the receiver). If the separation
distance is between 5 and 40 meters and signal
saturation is indicated after completion of the Basic
Alignment procedure, an aperture will be required
(even if no aperture was originally installed). Refer
to the “Aperture Kit for Short Range Applications”
section in this manual for complete information
regarding apertures.
9. Perform a zero calibration of the detector.
10. Upon completion of zero calibration, verify proper
operation by performing an “optical test film test”
and also a “beam block test” (see steps 20 and 21
in the “Basic Alignment Procedure” section in this
manual).
NoTe
Replacement receiver modules are furnished from
the factory with default configuration settings.
If the AutroPath HC800 system has had any
configuration changes in the field, the new receiver
will require changes to configuration parameters
using a HART communicator, a AutroVu AV10
display unit, or Modbus communication.
11. Restore system alarms (remove bypass).
DEvicE REpaiR anD REtuRn
The AutroPath HC800 IR Hydrocarbon Gas Detector
is not designed to be repaired in the field. If a problem
should develop, first carefully check for proper wiring,
programming and calibration. If it is determined that the
problem is caused by an electronic failure, the device
must be returned to the factory for repair.
Prior to returning devices, contact the nearest local
Autronica Fire and Security office so that a Return
Material Identification (RMI) number can be assigned.
A written statement describing the malfunction
must accompany the returned device or component
to assist and expedite finding the root cause of the
failure.
Pack the unit properly. Always use sufficient packing
material. Where applicable, use an antistatic bag as
protection from electrostatic discharge.
NoTe
Inadequate packaging that ultimately causes
damage to the returned device during shipment
will result in a service charge to repair the damage
incurred during shipment.
Return all equipment transportation prepaid to Autronica
Fire and Security.
