Manually Bump Testing G6 Using a Calibration Cap and Tube

How to manually bump test G6 using a calibration cap and tube.

  1. Attach the tubing to the calibration cap.
  2. Ensure the other end of the tubing is attached to a fixed flow regulator on the gas tank.
    Important:

    Do not turn on the gas cylinder until G6 indicates you should do so.

  3. From the Home screen, select by pressing the center button.
  4. Using the navigation buttons, scroll through the Global Navigation menu, then select Compliance by pressing the center button ().

    The Compliance screen opens, displaying when your device’s next bump test and calibration are due.

  5. To access the available Compliance procedures, select by pressing the right button.
    The available Compliance procedures display.
  6. Using the navigation buttons, scroll to and select Bump test by pressing the center button ().
    The Bump test screen opens.
  7. To start the bump test, select by pressing the right button.
    Note:

    To cancel the bump test and exit the workflow at any time, press the left button.

    G6 performs a hardware self test of your device’s lights, sound, and vibration.

  8. Attach the calibration cap to G6, then turn on the gas.
    Your device automatically detects the gas and starts the bump test.
  9. Once the bump test is successfully completed, turn off the gas, then disconnect the calibration cap from your G6.
  10. Select by pressing the right button.

    G6 stays in the bump test maintenance state while any residual gas clears.

    Important:

    If you cancel the bump test or if the bump test fails, you must turn off the gas and allow any excess gas to clear prior to disconnecting your device.

If the bump test fails, the device updates to a bump test overdue status.

If the bump test is canceled, the device remains in the status it was prior to the canceled bump test.

Important:

If G6 is experiencing a sensor error, you cannot perform a bump test until the sensor error is resolved.

If a bump test fail message displays on your LCD screen, try the bump test again. If the error persists, please contact Blackline Safety Technical Support.
