When you use a “…-alarm” keyword then the driver stores a 1 when the gas is in an alarm condition and a zero when it is not in alarm condition. This means a zero is stored even if the gas in a warning condition.

When you use a “…-warning” keyword then the driver stores a 1 when the gas is in a warning condition and a zero when it is not in warning condition. This means a zero is stored even if the gas in an alarm condition as well as when the gas is in a normal condition.

When you use a “….-combo” keyword then the driver stores a 1 whether the gas is in an alarm

OR warning condition and the driver stores a zero when the gas is in neither an an alarm or warning state.

6.10 Current Slot

Current slot information is the same as current port information. On a Normal Scan, a single slot is referenced. The gas values/warnings/alarms will be stored to the current slot data arrays every time slot information is stored. Note, this only occurs once during any Normal Slot Scan image.

6.11 Composite Validation Scan vs Normal Slot Scan

On a Normal Slot Scan Image, gas data is stored to the "slot" value/warning/alarm data arrays and the "port" value/warning/alarm data arrays. If more than one port (area) is referenced in the image, then the same value/warning/alarm gas data is copied to each section of the area "data array". For example, if Areas 2 and 39 were referenced, then the gas data values and warning/alarm status would be copied twice to the data array offset for Area 2 and the offset for Area 39.

On a Composite Validation Image, only one area (port) should be referenced. The gas values/warnings/alarms for the particular area referenced will be updated. As well the current port data values will also be updated. Note, on Composite Validation Images, slot information is not updated.
