Safety Considerations.
Throughout this manual Monitor is used for:
Photoacoustic Gas Monitor – INNOVA 1412i
Photoacoustic Gas Monitor – INNOVA 1314i
LumaSense SF 6 L eak Detector - 3434i
The Monitor complies with:
• EN/IEC 61010-1, 2nd Edition: Safety requirements for electrical
equipment for measurement, control and laboratory use.
• Can/CSA-C22.2 No. 61010-1-04 - Safety Requirements fo r Electrical
Equipment for Measurement, Control, and Laboratory Use
• UL Std. No. 61010A-1 (2nd Edition) - Safety Requirements for
Electrical Equipment for Measureme nt, Control, and Laboratory Use.
To ensure safe operation and r etain the Monitor in safe condition, note
the following:
EXPLOSION HAZARD!
TO AVOID THE POSSIBILITY OF AN EXPLOSION; MONITORING
OF FLAMMABLE GASES IN EXPLOSIVE CONCENTRATIONS MUST
NEVER BE ATTEMPTED.
Never operate the Monitor in potentially explosive environments.
When monitoring potentially flammable or toxic gases it is essential
that:
• The instrument itself is placed in a well-ventilated area outside the
potentially hazard ou s zone.
________________________________________________________________________
BE6027-12 LumaSoft Gas Software LumaSense Technologies A/S
7810 and 7860 Page 5 of 194
Safety Considerations
_________________________________________________________________________
• A sufficiently long tube is connected to the air-outlet on the back
panel so that the sampled gas is carried away to the open air or to an
extraction and/or filtration unit.
Warnings!
• Avoid water condensation in the Monitor.
• Switch off all equipment before connecting or disconnecting their
digital interface. Failure to do so could damage the equipment.
• Whenever it is li kely that correct function or operating saf ety of the
apparatus has been impaired, the apparatus must be made inoperative and secured against unintended operation.
• Any adjustment, maintenance and repair of the open apparatus
under voltage must be a voided as far a s possible and , if unavo idable,
must be carried out only by trained personnel.
• If a fault is reporte d by the Monitor th at indicates corr ect function of
the instrument may be impaired, consult your local LumaSense
Technologies representative. Under no circumstances should repair
be attempted by persons not qualified in service of electronic
instrumentation.

1.1 Introduction
This manual can be used in several ways. The f irst time users can work
their way through the exa mples in order to get to know the monitoring
system. The more experienced users can jump directly to the relevant
chapters in order to gain assistance , an d expe rts ca n use t his manua l as
a reference book by using the index.
The LumaSoft Gas Single Point 7810 Software is used as a single
channel monitoring software for Photoacoustic Gas Monitor – INNOVA
1412i, Photoacoustic Gas Monitor – INNOVA 1314i and Lu maSense SF6
Leak Detector - 3434i.
The LumaSoft Gas Mult i Point 7860 Softwa re is used as a multi chan nel
monitoring Software for Photoacoustic Gas Monitor – INNOVA 1412i in
system, Photoacoustic Ga s Mo nito r – INNOVA 1314i and LumaSense SF6
Leak Detector - 3434i with up to two Multipoint Samplers – INNOVA
1309 or four Multipoint Sampler and Doser - INNOVA 1303.
NOTE: The LumaSoft Gas Multi Point 7860 Software requires a license
dongle connected to the USB port in order to run.

2.1.2 Installing LumaSoft Gas
The LumaSoft Gas software is delivered on a CD with an installation
program. Please refer to Appendix A how to perform the installation of
the LumaSoft Gas software. It is recommended that your system
administrator performs the task of installing the LumaSoft Gas program.
After the installation is successfully completed the LumaSense ->
LumaSoft Gas program menu is created.
The “LumaSoft Gas” program icon (Figure 2.1) is also placed on your
desktop for easy access to the program.
Figure 2.1 LumaSoft Gas desktop shortcut
2.2 Connecting the Monitor and the Multiplexer to a PC
The Monitor comes complete with an USB interface cable.
Optionally an Ethernet (TCP/IP) interface cable or a 9-pin to 9-pin null
modem RS-232 interface cable c an be delivered.
2.2.1 Fitting the USB Cable
The USB interface cable can be connected while the gas monitor is
switched on.
Locate an USB port at the back of the PC; refer to your PC manual if in
doubt. Pus h the connector on the USB cable on to the USB port socket
on the PC.
Locate the output labelled at the back of the Monitor. Push the
connector at the other end of the USB cable on to this socket.

_________________________________________________________________________
2.2.1 Setting the USB Communication Parameters
No setup on the 1412i/1314i/3434i gas monitor is necessary in order to
be able to communicate with the 1412i/1314i/3434i gas monitor
through an USB connection.
2.2.3 Fitting the Ethernet (TCP/IP) Cable.
The gas monitor can be connected to a local Ethernet network, which
communicates using the TCP/IP network interface protocol or to view
the homepage of the gas monitor in a standard PC internet browser.
The Ethernet network cable can be connected while the gas monitor is
switched on.
Locate the Ethernet socket connector labelled at the back of the
Monitor. Connect a standard Ethernet network cable to the Ethernet
socket connector on the back of the gas mo nitor. Connect t he other end
of the Ethernet network cable to your local network. The yellow LED on
the Ethernet socket connector will lit, if a local network connection is
detected.
2.2.4 Setting the TCP/IP Communication Parameters
It is recommended that your system administrator sets-up the TCP/IP
communication parameters.
The communication parameters for the TCP/IP interface can be set by
using the push-buttons on the front of the monitor.
1. Press SET-UP CONFIGURATION System Communication Addressable.
The screen display now shows the following text.
TCP/IP IEEE 4 8 8

doubt.
Push the connector on the R S-232 cab le on to the s eria l po r t so cke t, a nd
secure it firmly using the securing screws.
Locate the output labelled “RS-232” at the back of the Monitor.
Push the connector at the other end of the RS-232 cable on to this
socket, and secure it firmly using the securing screws.
Turn on the PC. Wait for Windows to start up.
The Monitor can be turned on at the mains.
2.2.6 Setting the RS232 Communication Parameters
In order for the RS-232 communication to be successful, it is essential
that the communication para me ter s ar e se t cor re ctly. This is a two stage
process: the PC communication port is selected via the LumaSoft Gas
software while the baud rate, parity, data bits and stop bits are defined
via the Monitor.
The communication parameters necessary for the Monitor to
communicate with the LumaSoft Gas are shown below in Table 2.2.

2.2.9 Selecting the PC communication Port
It is just a simple case of selecting the correct port on the PC. The
software shows the COM por ts that are pr esent in the sys tem to choos e
from: COM1, COM2, COM3…. If you are not sure which por t the cable is
connected on your computer refer to your PC manual.
2.2.10 Setting up a Multipoint System with Multipoint Sa mplers -
INNOVA 1309
The 1309(s) is connected to the Gas Monitor using IEEE-488 cable(s).
To avoid data errors, this cable must conform to the specifications laid
down in the IEEE-488 standard, particularly with regard to length,
connector type and “daisy -chaining”. LumaSense can supply the correct
cables, Cable order no. AO0265 (2m) or WL0845 (1m).
Caution: To avoid permanently damaging the delicate electronics in a
1309 or the Monitor , you must ensure t hat all IEEE-488 ins truments are
switched off before connecting or disconnecting the interface cables.
The IEEE–488 address of each 1309 in the system must be set before
communication with the PC can occur . T he addr ess is se t using t he e ight
DIP switches located on the back panel of the 1309. The decimal
address of the instrument is expressed as a binary number, the MSD
(Most significant DIP switch) being to the left looking onto the back
panel. Table 2.4 will guide you.
