Description

Case

The Eagle has a plastic case with a full-sized handle. The high- visibility case is shielded to reduce radio frequency and electromagnetic interference (RFI/EMI). The system is light-weight and balanced, which makes the Eagle easy to carry and use for extended periods. A foam rubber gasket between the top and bottom case components is water- and dust-resistant. You can set the case into 2.5 in. of water without damage.

Control Panel

The control panel is at the top of the Eagle. The touch-pad buttons reduce the risk of accidental activation. The dot matrix display simultaneously shows the gas reading for all installed sensors. (For the 5- and 6-gas versions, the Eagle displays the gas reading of four channels. Use the AIR/▲ and SHIFT/▼ buttons to scroll to the non- displayed channels.) The display also shows information for each of the Eagle’s program modes.

Buttons

The control panel includes the following six buttons.

	Table 3: Eagle Button Functions
Button	Function(s)
POWER/ENTER	• turns the Eagle on and off.
	• used during setup and calibration.
RESET/SILENCE	silences and resets audible alarm if the Eagle is programmed for
	latching alarms and the Alarm Silence option is on 1
DISP/ADJ	• activates display modes
	• enters instructions into the Eagle’s microprocessor
LEL/PPM	switches combustible gas detection ranges between %LEL
	(lower explosive limit) and PPM (parts per million)2
AIR/▲	• activates the demand-zero function (automatically adjusts the
	Eagle in fresh-air conditions)
	• scrolls through the display and settings modes
SHIFT/▼	• scrolls through the calibration and settings modes
	• enters instructions into the Eagle’s microprocessor

1The Eagle’s alarms are user-adjustable. See “Setup Mode” on page 23.

2The LEL range is commonly used for safety applications; the PPM range can be used for environmental or other special applications.
