K9206 OVERVIEW

The K9206 is broadly based on the KM9106 and while retaining many of its core features has been
significantly enhanced. The most visible difference is the large graphical display on the handset. Up to
15 lines of text/data can be displayed. The handset links to the main analyzer unit using Bluetooth or the
normal cable. It also has a USB connector to link to a PC via a cable and has an infrared output to link to
the portable KMIRP printer.
The main analyzer unit also contains significant enhancements over the previous 9106.

STANDARD FEATURES:

• 19301 Battery charger

• 18277 UK mains lead

• Battery rechargeable via main unit or main charger

MAIN ANALYZER UNIT: AS STANDARD K9206/P

• Measures: Oxygen, Ambient temperature, Atmospheric pressure, Inlet temperature
Flue temperature, Differential pressure

• Features: Main purge, Flow control*, NiMh battery packs, Plain paper printer

*Flow control

To compensate for different suction levels in flues, hose lengths and filter contamination levels,
all of which can affect the flow of sample gases, there is an active flow control system fitted

to the K9206.

It operates as follows:

Every time the instrument is turned on and finishes its first fresh air purge cycle from inside
the analyzer, it measures and records the pump pressure just prior to the sensor manifold while
the pump is at 100% flow rate. During service calibration & normal use, the pump speed is
automatically adjusted to 70% of the purge flow rate to maintain consistent flow.

The flow control can cope with typically 100 mbar suction in a flue and still maintain the same
nominal flow as that present under ambient conditions.

K9206 WITH KANELIVE PC SOFTWARE

KANELIVE is a free download that runs on Windows based PCs and allows live display and graphing of data.
It can be downloaded from the UEi Test Instruments website www.ueitest.com.

• In the current configuration, the handset needs to be connected to the main unit by a cable and the
Bluetooth setting for the handset needs to be changed to TO PC using MENU, SETUP, BLUETOOTH
SETUP.

• Once this has been selected, go to the PC and select MY BLUETOOTH PLACES.

• Click ADD A BLUETOOTH DEVICE.

• All Bluetooth devices within range will be displayed in icon form. The K9206 handset
will be displayed as: K9206HS

• 999999107 where the 9 digit number is the serial number of the handset.

• Double click on this. Now follow the instructions.

• Then enter the passkey: 1111

• Click on the TICK BOX and then AT SERIAL CONFIGURE and then FINISH.

• Now click on KANELIVE to initiate the program.

• Select your analyzer type by clicking on the analyzer name displayed on the middle of the bottom line
of the screen. If more than one analyzer has been enabled a drop down will appear. Click on the
analyzer of your choice.

• Then click CONNECT and wait for its color to change to green.

• Then click START, which will change to green.

• After a few seconds live data will be displayed.

GETTING STARTED

• Check that you have all the items you have ordered.

• Before attempting to use the analyzer to take readings it is recommended that the batteries be fully
charged.

• When the charger is connected to the analyzer and powered up the red LED by the charger socket
will flash until the batteries are fully charged. Once the batteries are fully charged the LED will no
longer be illuminated.

• To charge the handset; connect the handset to the main analyzer unit using its cable.
While switched off, but charging, the display will show the Kane logo and a battery charging icon

in the bottom right hand corner of the handset screen.

Note: The handset battery is charged via the external battery charger and not from the analyzer’s

internal battery. Once the handset battery is fully charged the icon will disappear from the screen.
The handset can also be charged directly using the main charger as used for the analyzer.
