About the SDM-2009

The SDM-2009 Docking Station is an advanced, reliable system that provides charging,
calibration, bump testing, and calibration and bump test records for the GX-2009 portable gas
monitor. It is designed to save the calibration and bump test records to a USB flash drive
(standalone functionality) or to be connected directly to a computer (PC controlled
functionality). If calibration and bump test records are stored to a USB flash drive while
operating in the standalone configuration, the Single Module Data Viewer Program can then
be used with a Windows-based personal computer to retrieve calibration and bump test data
files from the USB flash drive or from the computer’s hard drive if the files have been
transferred to the hard drive from the flash drive. If you are using the PC Controller Program
while operating in the PC controlled configuration, you may retrieve instrument data, bump
test, and calibrate up to 10 instruments at once. Instrument information and data for each
instrument can be viewed directly using the PC Controller Program and can be printed from
the PC Controller Program. For instructions to use the SDM-2009 with the PC Controller
Program, see the SDM-2009 Docking Station PC Controlled Configuration Operator’s
Manual.
The purpose of this manual is to explain how to set up and use the SDM-2009 in Standalone
configuration. It also explains how to use the Single Module Data Viewer Program. You will
learn how to:
• install and launch the Single Module Data Viewer Program
• prepare the SDM-2009 for use

Chapter 3: Preparing to Use the SDM-2009
Overview
There are four tasks that must be completed before you can begin to use the SDM-2009:
hardware assembly, setting or confirming the bump test and calibration parameters,
connecting calibration gas, and installing the Single Module Data Viewer Software on your
computer. This chapter describes how to assemble the parts that are shipped with the SDM-
2009, how to set or view the bump test and calibration parameters, and how to install the
Single Module Data Viewer Software on a Windows based personal computer.
Hardware Assembly
The hardware assembly consists of connecting the AC adapter, installing the air filter, and
connecting the sample tubing. Perform the following to complete the hardware assembly:
1. Place the SDM-2009 on a convenient table top near an AC wall socket in a well ventilated
area. A location near a window that can be opened is best so that the exhaust can be
routed to the window.
2. Connect the AC adapter’s wall plug into a wall AC socket.
3. Insert the round plug on the end of the AC adapter’s cable into the power jack on the back
of the SDM-2009.
NOTE: If you have multiple SDM-2009s and are using a 4-port AC adapter, plug
each of the round plugs on the end of the AC adapter into the power jack on
the back of 4 separate SDM-2009s.
4. Install the air filter so that the arrow on the filter that indicates direction of flow is
pointing towards the AIR fitting. Push the open end of the flexible tube that is on one end
of the filter onto the AIR fitting on the back of the SDM-2009.
5. Install the 10 foot long 5/16 inch ID flexible tube that is included with the SDM-2009
onto the exhaust fitting located in the upper left corner of the back panel. Route the tube
to an area where the exhaust can be safely dispersed, such as an open window. Exhaust
tubing from multiple units can be daisy chained together in a manifold for more
convenient operation. In this case, the check valves that are provided with the docking
stations need to be used. See "Assembling a Manifold for Multiple SDM-2009s" below
for instructions.
CAUTION: The maximum recommended length for the exhaust tube is 10 feet. Do not use
more than 10 feet of tubing or tubing with an ID of less than 5/16 inch for the
exhaust tube or the bump test and calibration accuracy may be adversely
affected. The tube that is shipped with the SDM-2009 has an ID of 5/16 inch
and is 10 feet long.
Chapter 3: Preparing to Use the SDM-2009 • 17

6. Install the 3 foot long 3/16 inch ID tube that is included with the SDM-2009 on the GAS
fitting. GAS tubing from multiple units can be daisy chained together in a manifold for
more convenient operation. See "Assembling a Manifold for Multiple SDM-2009s"
below for instructions.
Assembling a Manifold for Multiple SDM-2009s

Up to 10 SDM-2009s can be manifolded together. The GAS fitting can be manifolded to allow
the stations to draw from one calibration cylinder. The exhaust lines can also be manifolded
together and be routed away from the docking stations with only one 10 foot long 5/16 inch
piece of tubing.
Each SDM-2009 is shipped with exhaust tubing, GAS tubing, T-fittings in two different sizes,
and a check valve.

Setting the Operational Parameters in Edit Mode
Once the hardware has been assembled, use Edit Mode to confirm or adjust the bump test and
calibration parameters before using the SDM-2009.
The bump test parameters define how long fresh air and calibration gas are applied to an
instrument during a bump test. They also define the tolerance used in determining whether an
instrument fails or passes a bump test and whether or not a calibration automatically takes
place if a bump test fails. The calibration parameters define how long fresh air and calibration
gas are applied to an instrument during a calibration.
The bump test and calibration parameters are saved in the SDM-2009’s memory. If a
parameter is changed with one particular instrument installed in the SDM-2009, the change
will be in effect for the bump test or calibration of any subsequent instruments until the
parameter is changed again.
Bump Test & Calibration Parameters

There are four bump test parameters and two calibration parameters. The two calibration
parameters, air sample time and calibration gas sample time, are also bump test parameters.
The parameters are described below. Table 3 below shows the factory settings for the bump
test and calibration parameters. If you wish to use the factory settings, then you do not need to
make any parameter adjustments. If you wish to confirm or change the parameter settings,
follow the instructions below in “Setting the Bump Test Parameters” on page 26 or “Setting
the Calibration Parameters” on page 28.

Air Sample Time (AIr)

The air sample time can be set separately for bump testing and calibration. It is the length of
time that the SDM-2009 will draw air through the AIR fitting on the back of the docking
station before an air adjust operation.
Calibration Gas Sample Time (GAS)

The calibration gas sample time can be set separately for bump testing and calibration. It is the
length of time that the SDM-2009 will draw calibration gas through the GAS fitting on the
back of the docking station during a bump test or calibration.
Bump Test Check Tolerance (CHE)

The bump test check tolerance only applies to bump testing. It determines how close the
instrument gas reading must be to the calibration gas concentration for each channel during a
bump test in order to pass the bump test. It is defined as a percentage of the calibration gas
concentration. The amount that the instrument gas reading differs from the calibration gas
concentration must be equal to or less than this percentage of the calibration gas
concentration. For example, if the tolerance is set to 50%, and the %LEL calibration gas
concentration is 50% LEL, then the bump test gas reading for the LEL channel on the
instrument must be 50 %LEL ± 25 %LEL.
The F10, F20, F30, etc. options represent a fast bump tolerance. If one of these “F” type
tolerances is selected and the gas reading for the sensor(s) being tested is above the lower
tolerance and below the upper tolerance within 10 seconds, the sensor(s) pass bump testing,
the gas application will be stopped, and the test will move on to the next sensor(s) or to the
fresh air purge. If the gas reading on any of the tested channels is below the lower tolerance or
above the upper tolerance within 10 seconds, the gas application will continue for the time
period defined by the GAS bump test parameter, and the pass/fail status of the sensor(s) will
be determined at that point. Using an “F” type tolerance allows calibration gas to be saved
when the tested sensors respond quickly and accurately.

Consider the following scenario as an example.
• 50% LEL methane used for bump testing the combustible gas channel
• GAS bump test parameter set to 20 seconds
• Tolerance set to ± F50%, which means that the acceptable reading range is 25% LEL -
75% LEL
The table below shows possible readings at 10 seconds and the effect on the gas application.
Table 4: Example Fast Bump Scenarios
Gas Reading 10 Seconds Into

Outcome

15% LEL (-70% of 50% LEL) • Gas application continues for the full 20 seconds
• Pass/fail determined at end of 20 seconds
30% LEL (-40% of 50% LEL) • Gas application stops
• Sensor passes bump testing
60% LEL (+20% of 50% LEL) • Gas application stops
• Sensor passes bump testing
80% LEL (+60% of 50% LEL) • Gas application continues for the full 20 seconds
• Pass/fail determined at end of 20 seconds
Automatic Calibration (CAL)

Automatic calibration only applies to bump testing. It can be set to on or off. If it is set to on,
then the docking station will automatically perform a calibration if a bump test fails.
Turning on the SDM-2009 with an Instrument

Connecting Calibration Gas
The GAS fitting on the back of the docking station is designed to be used with a calibration
gas cylinder that is fitted with a demand flow regulator. The AIR fitting may be used with a
demand flow regulator and a cylinder of zero emissions air, but this is not normally necessary
since the docking station will generally be in a fresh air area.
The type of calibration gas cylinder used depends on the gas sensors installed in the
instrument being used with the calibration station. A 4-gas mix, LEL/Oxygen/CO/H2S, is
used if the instrument being used with the calibration station is a 4-gas unit. If the instrument
does not have an H2S channel, then a 3-gas mix, LEL/Oxygen/CO, is used. Although a 4-gas
cylinder will work for an instrument of any gas combination, if you have multiple instruments
with various gas combinations, you may want to keep a 4-gas cylinder and a 3-gas cylinder to
help preserve the charcoal filter on the CO sensor in instruments without an H2S channel. Use
Table 5 below as a guide in determining which calibration gas cylinder is appropriate for your
system. See “Chapter 6: Spare Parts List” on page 60 for a list of available cylinder part
numbers.

LEL/Oxy 3-gas mix with LEL/Oxy/CO

Oxy/CO 3-gas mix with LEL/Oxy/CO
Oxy/H2S 4-gas mix with LEL/Oxy/H2S/CO
To connect calibration gas to the SDM-2009, do the following:

1. If the area around the docking station is not considered a fresh air area (an area free of
combustible and toxic gases and of normal oxygen content, 20.9%) install a tube not
longer than 10 feet on the filter attached to the AIR fitting on the back of the docking
station and route it to a fresh air area or connect a cylinder of zero air with a demand flow
regulator to the AIR fitting.
2. Install the demand flow regulator on the calibration gas cylinder(s).
3. Connect the demand flow regulator to the GAS fitting using the 3 foot length of 3/16 inch
ID sample tubing provided with the docking station.

Chapter 4: Operation
Overview
When you have completed the tasks in "Chapter 3: Preparing to Use the SDM-2009", you are
ready to use the SDM-2009 docking station. The SDM-2009 is capable of performing bump
tests and calibrations on the GX-2009. It can also charge the rechargeable batteries in the
instrument. This chapter describes procedures for using the docking station to bump test,
calibrate, and recharge instruments in the standalone configuration of the docking station. It
also describes the information that is saved in the docking station’s memory and how to save
that information to a USB flash drive for use with the Single Module Data Viewer Program.
Bump Testing a GX-2009

The following instructions apply to GX-2009s with one or more of the standard four sensors
(catalytic LEL, O2, CO, and H2S).
When a bump test is performed, the SDM-2009 performs a fresh air adjustment on a GX-2009
and then applies calibration gas to the instrument. The docking station then analyzes the
response results based on criteria defined by the bump test check tolerance parameter and
determines if the instrument passed the bump test. The bump test check tolerance is defined in
“Bump Test Check Tolerance (CHE)” on page 23. If the automatic calibration parameter is set
to ON, then the SDM-2009 will automatically perform a calibration if the bump test fails.
Do the following to perform a bump test on a GX-2009:
1. Confirm that the AC Adapter is connected to the SDM-2009 and to an AC wall socket.
4. The COPY LED will be off or on steadily and the CHARGE LED will be blinking green
5. Install a GX-2009 in the instrument cradle.
NOTE: If the GX-2009 is left in the SDM-2009 after bump testing or calibration, the
pump will run for 12 seconds every 2 minutes in order to keep hydrogen
generated from charging of the NiMH batteries from affecting the CO sensor.

• To perform a calibration, press and release the CAL  button.
12. The SDM-2009 will begin the bump test by applying fresh air to the instrument for the
time defined by the Air bump test parameter.
13. The SDM-2009 will perform a fresh air adjustment on the instrument.
• If the air adjustment is successful, the SDM-2009 will continue as described in step 14
below.
• If one or more of the sensors fails the fresh air adjustment, the SDM-2009 will abort
the bump test and will not apply calibration gas. If this happens, the BUMP  LED
will flash red indicating a failure and the following screens will alternate indicating the
fresh air readings and which channels passed and failed the fresh air adjustment with a

• If the bump test fails, and CAL is set to OFF, continue with step 16.
• If the bump test fails, and CAL is set to ON, a calibration will automatically begin and
calibration gas will continue to flow. The CAL  LED will begin to flash amber.
NOTE: Calibration gas will continue to be applied so that the total gas application
time is the time defined by the GAS calibration parameter. This time includes
the time that the instrument was being bump tested. If the GAS calibration
parameter is set to 90 seconds and the GAS bump test parameter is set to
30 seconds, the instrument will sample gas for an additional 60 seconds if the
bump test fails to bring the total exposure time to 90 seconds.

additional instrument.
Calibrating a GX-2009
The following instructions apply to GX-2009s with one or more of the standard four sensors
(catalytic LEL, O2, CO, and H2S).
When a calibration is performed, the docking station performs a fresh air adjustment on an
instrument and then applies calibration gas to the instrument. The docking station analyzes the
calibration results and determines if the instrument passed the calibration.
To perform a calibration on a GX-2009:
1. Confirm that the AC adapter is connected to the SDM-2009 and to an AC wall socket.
4. The COPY LED will be off or on steadily and the CHARGE LED will be blinking green
5. Install a GX-2009 in the instrument cradle.
6. Press and hold the POWER MODE button on the GX-2009 until you hear a beep, then
release it. The GX-2009 will begin its power up sequence (see exceptions below in
auto calibration values for all installed sensors will be displayed. If the charge LED was

11. The SDM-2009 begins the calibration by applying fresh air to the instrument for the time
defined by the Air calibration parameter.
12. The SDM-2009 will perform a fresh air adjustment on the instrument.
• If the air adjustment is successful, the SDM-2009 will continue as described in step 13
below.
• If one or more of the sensors fails the fresh air adjustment, the SDM-2009 will abort
the calibration and will not apply calibration gas. If this happens, the CAL  LED
will flash red indicating a failure and the following screens will alternate indicating the
fresh air readings and which channels passed and failed the fresh air adjustment with a
P (pass) or an F (fail). In the following examples, the CO channel failed the fresh air

instruction.
Charging an Instrument in a Docking Station
The SDM-2009 can be used to charge the rechargeable batteries in a GX-2009. To maximize
the instrument’s run time and the battery life, make sure the batteries’ charge is as low as
possible before recharging them. You can use the GX-2009’s REFRESH function to discharge
the batteries. See the GX-2009 Operator’s Manual for a complete description of the
REFRESH button.
Recharging the Batteries After Performing a Bump Test or Calibration

1. Perform a bump test or calibration on an instrument as described in “Bump Testing a GX-
2009” on page 32, “Calibrating a GX-2009” on page 37.
2. After the bump test or calibration has been completed, turn off the instrument by pressing
and holding the EDIT ENTER and POWER buttons simultaneously until the instrument
turns off, about one second, and then releasing them. The docking station will
automatically turn off the instrument 15 seconds after a successful bump test or
calibration or if no buttons are pressed for 10 minutes.
3. While the instrument is on, the CHARGE LED will be blinking green. When the
instrument is turned off, the CHARGE LED will blink amber. The BUMP  and/or CAL
 LED will continue to be either green or red depending on the result of the previous
bump test or calibration.
NOTE: The SDM-2009 does not start charging the batteries until the instrument is
off. While the instrument is on, the CHARGE LED will blink green. Once the
instrument is shut off, the CHARGE LED will begin to blink amber.
4. If the batteries are fully charged, then the CHARGE LED will turn solid green in a few
minutes.
If the batteries are drained enough for the docking station to charge them, the CHARGE
LED will continue to blink amber while charging is taking place. The SDM-2009 will
take approximately 3 hours to charge a fully discharged GX-2009.
If the charging process encounters a fail condition, the CHARGE LED will turn steadily
red.
5. When the charge is complete, the CHARGE status LED will turn solid green.
Recharging the Batteries Without Performing Any Operations

1. Confirm that the AC adapter is connected to the back panel of the SDM-2009 and to an
AC wall socket.
2. Insert the instrument into the instrument cradle.
5. The CHARGE LED will be blinking amber.
6. If the batteries are fully charged, then the blinking amber LED will turn solid green in a
few minutes.
If the batteries are drained enough for the SDM-2009 to charge them, the CHARGE LED
will continue to blink amber while charging is taking place. The SDM-2009 will take
approximately 3 hours to charge a fully discharged GX-2009.
If the charging process encounters a fail condition, the CHARGE LED will turn steadily
red.
7. When the charge is complete, the CHARGE status LED will turn solid green.
Batteries Too Drained for Standalone Operation

If the NiMH batteries do not have enough power to keep the instrument on, it will go into a 5
minute charge cycle and the following screen will be displayed on the instrument screen.
04.59
CHARGING
It will not connect to the docking station. The instrument cannot be bump tested or calibrated
in the charge cycle. Once the 5 minute charge cycle has ended, the unit will automatically turn
back on and connect to the docking station. The unit can now be bump tested or calibrated.
Calibration and Bump Test Records
The SDM-2009 saves a record of each bump test and calibration performed. It is capable of
saving up to 200 such records. When an SDM-2009’s memory becomes full, the oldest record
is overwritten when a new record is saved. The records saved in the SDM-2009’s memory can
be saved to a USB flash drive using the USB port on the front.
Available Memory in the SDM-2009

The COPY LED indicates how much of the SDM-2009’s memory has been used. The table
below describes the various indications.
Table 7: COPY LED Indications
COPY LED Indication Memory Used
Off None. No records are saved

Solid Green Less than 80% of the SDM-2009’s memory has been used.
Solid Amber More than 80% of the SDM-2009’s memory has been used.
Solid Red The docking station’s memory is full. A newly saved record
will overwrite the oldest one.
Copying Calibration and Bump Test Records to a USB Flash Drive

The SDM-2009 will only perform a copy operation if there is at least one record saved in its
memory. If there are no records saved in the docking station’s memory, the COPY LED will
be off and the COPY button will not function. Do the following to copy calibration and bump
test records in the SDM-2009’s memory to a USB flash drive.
NOTE: The USB port on the front of the docking station cannot be used to connect
the SDM-2009 to a computer, only to save calibration and bump test records
to a USB flash drive.
1. Confirm that the AC Adapter is connected to the SDM-2009 and to an AC wall socket.
4. The COPY LED will be off or on steadily and the CHARGE LED will be blinking green.
The amount of free memory in the SDM-2009 will dictate the condition of the COPY
LED (see "Available Memory in the SDM-2009" above).
5. Install a USB flash drive into the USB port on the front of the SDM-2009. The SDM-
2009 will take a few seconds to determine how much memory is available in the flash
drive.
• If the flash drive’s available memory is not enough for the contents of the SDM-2009’s
memory, the COPY LED will alternate between green and red. Enough memory will
have to be cleared in the flash drive to make room for the records in the SDM-2009’s
memory.
• If there is enough available memory in the flash drive for the contents of the SDM-
2009’s memory, the COPY LED will begin flashing in the same color that it was
before installing the flash drive.
6. Press and hold the COPY button until the COPY LED turns red, then release it. The
COPY LED will become solid red while the records in the docking station’s memory are
copied to the flash drive. In addition, if the flash drive has an LED, it will begin to blink.
7. When the COPY LED returns to its original color and begins blinking again and the flash
drive’s LED (if it has one) stops blinking, the copy operation is complete. Remove the
flash drive from the USB port.
NOTE: If you pull out the flash drive while its LED is still blinking or the COPY
LED is still solid red, the file saved in the flash drive with the calibration and
bump test records may be incomplete.
8. If the flash drive has not already been used with a docking station, a folder named DAT
will be created on the flash drive and a file with all the saved calibration and bump test
records will be saved to this folder.
If the flash drive has been used before with a docking station, the file will be saved to the
existing DAT folder.
9. The files on the flash drive can now be either transferred to a computer or kept on the
flash drive for use with the Single Module Data Viewer Software. See "Bump Test and
Calibration Record Files" below for a discussion of these files and how to use them.
Clearing the SDM-2009’s Memory

Make sure that you save the bump test and calibration records in the SDM-2009’s memory to
a flash drive before clearing its memory. The docking station’s memory can be cleared by
simultaneously pressing and holding the CAL  and COPY buttons for five seconds. After
the SDM-2009’s memory has been cleared, the COPY LED will turn off indicating there are
no records to be copied.
Bump Test and Calibration Record Files
Each time a copy function is performed, a file is saved to the flash drive in the DAT folder.
The file name will begin with “SDM-2009” and the remainder of the file name will depend on
the serial number of the SDM-2009 used and the date of the most recent bump test or
calibration performed on the SDM-2009. So it is possible to have multiple files in the DAT
folder from the SDM-2009.
The files that an SDM-2009 saves to a USB flash drive are structured so that they can be
imported into a database controlled by the Single Module Data Viewer Software. See
“Importing Files Into the Database” on page 51 for instructions to add files to the database.
Bump Testing or Calibrating and Saving Files To a Flash Drive
Multiple Times In One Day
The SDM-2009 assigns file names to calibration and bump test record files based on the day
of the most recent calibration or bump test record saved in the docking station’s memory. If
bump tests or calibrations are performed, a copy operation is performed, then additional bump
tests or calibrations are performed, and another copy operation is performed with the same
flash drive all on the same day, the existing file on the flash drive from the first copy operation
will be overwritten by the file from the second copy operation because its name will be the
same as the new file. In this case, no information is lost since the second file saved to the flash
drive includes all the records that were in the first file.
However, if bump tests or calibrations are performed, a copy operation is performed, and the
SDM-2009’s memory is cleared, then additional bump tests or calibrations are performed,
and another copy operation is performed with the same flash drive all on the same day, this
will result in the information in the file from the first copy operation being lost. This is
because the file saved to the flash drive in the second copy operation only includes records
since the memory was cleared and when it overwrites the file from the first copy operation, all
the information in the first file is lost.
CAUTION: If performing bump tests or calibrations and copying an SDM-2009’s

memory to a flash drive multiple times during the same day and the SDM-
2009’s memory is cleared, transfer the calibration/bump test record files from
the flash drive to a computer hard drive or some other memory device before
performing another copy operation to avoid loss of data.
