Shared alarms are the communication of an alarm or evacuation throughout the network of detectors from the detector/device that initiated the alarm or evacuation. Additionally, the HUB acts as a gateway which gives authorized users the ability to:
monitor the gas readings and the network life and health send manual evacuations other network management functions The network can be monitored locally or remotely. Local access is via an iOS or Android mobile device when securely connected to the HUB via Bluetooth. Remote access is granted to Safety io Grid subscribers who have connected their MSA HUB to the internet using cellular, Wi-Fi and/or ethernet connectivity. Safety io Grid remote monitoring can take place on a computer where Fleet Manager and Live Monitoring can be utilized in addition to being able to remotely use the app to manage the network(s). The maximum network size are defined as follows*:
Up to 32 detectors and a HUB with 915 MHz radio Up to 16 detectors and a HUB with 868 MHz radio
*local regulations define which frequency must be utilized. Unlimited standalone detectors can be deployed on site without being connected to a network. US ALTAIR io360 19 Description 2.6 Deployment Options A key feature of the ALTAIR io360 gas detection solution is the easy and intuitive setup and deployment. Throughout this manual, the word "setup" will refer to workflows and tasks associated with preparing detectors and HUB(s) to function as necessary for individual needs. The word "deploy" or "deployment" will refer to the process of placing ALTAIR io360 Gas Detectors and MSA HUB(s) on the worksite, entering an operational state and to begin monitoring an area. Detectors can be ordered preconfigured from MSA, ready to use. However, the app is required to modify the configuration of the detector, setup the detector(s) and the HUB(s) as a network , and access data logs. The app guides the user through editing detector configurations, HUB configurations, managing networks, and the connecting the HUB to the internet and Safety io Grid. To deploy the detectors and HUBs in the field, the app enhances the experience, particularly when assigning locations to detectors to view within the Safety io Grid. However, a mobile device is not required to deploy in the field. The detector has three deployment options: standalone detectors; detectors and HUB; detectors, HUB, and remote monitoring via the Grid. The differences between the deployment options are detailed in the table below:

(2) Through the app dashboard, search for nearby detectors to start the configuration process. The app starts a process to setup a detector profile, which can be used on any detector that is accessed by the app. The following parameters can be configured:
Latching vs. non-latching alarms Enable/disable sensor channels Configure alarm set points Enable and disable high and low alarms Mesh radio enable Evacuation enable/disable Horn enable/disable LED enable/disable Frontlight enable/disable Calibration due enable/disable Calibration interval days Passcode Company name Department name 4.6 Network Settings 4.6.1 Names The user can name the devices to help identify detectors, HUBs, and networks. Follow the app prompts to rename items. HUBs have a unique name which is HUB plus the last seven digits of the serial number. US Detectors have a unique name in the format of "io360 XXXX" with characters 0-9 and A-Z. The user can change the detector and HUB names through the app. 4.6.2 Security The user can create and require a security code for a network. MSA recommends a security code to prevent modifying the settings on the network, protect configuration settings, and prevent downloading logs. Each detector is allowed to have a unique security code, if desired (users will be warned that detector has different security code). If using the Safety io Grid, the user can sync the security code from the Grid. Entering the Security Code:
(1) In the app, browse to the security menu.
(2) Enter the security code. a) Remember the security code for future use. The HUB and all detectors on the network receive the same security code. The security code can be changed in the app. 30 ALTAIR io360 4.6.3 Internet Connectivity The HUB can be connected to the internet for Grid connectivity with Ethernet, Wifi, and/or cellular. The HUB will, in that order, preferrably use Ethernet, Wifi, or cellular for internet connectivity. Software Configuration Setup Add detector(s) to network: max. 32 for 915 Mhz and 16 for 868 Mhz A shared alarm is an alarm that, from the alarm source through the network, reaches every device on the same network. Shared alarms latch and non-latch based on your alarm settings. 4.7 Modifying a Network Connect the app to the HUB to:

Software Configuration Setup Fault Warm up Configuration/Calibration Factory Reset WARNING!
Detector is not monitoring gas during special states. Failure to follow this warning can result in serious personal injury or death. 4.8 Testing the Network Test the network before deployment to verify proper functioning.
(1) Send an evacuation signal to all detectors.
(2) Verify that all detectors respond. a) Confirm the number of detectors ready to deploy matches the number of detectors in the app. Connected detector LEDs illuminate green. US Fig. 9 Network Connection Overview Before deploying the detectors onto the work site, ensure that the network is connected and the detectors are configured. 32 ALTAIR io360 Deployment 5 Deployment Deployment is the process of placing detectors and HUB(s) throughout the work site and to be used in an operational state. With the exception of the AC connector for the HUB, all other components are able to operate in hazardous locations. The detector and HUB must be oriented upright and should avoid direct sunlight if possible. Detectors must have SensorShield and SunShield installed during deployment. Detectors must be oriented as shown below:
5.1 Network Detector Placement 5.1.1 Detector The distance at which detectors are able to connect to another detector or HUB is reduced by physical obstructions between the detectors and environmental conditions. Any mention of maximum connection distance is understood to be under ideal conditions. The interface feedback on the detector is the correct method to verify connections not distance alone, e.g. network icon and LED blinks green. There is a time delay for a detector to update its network connectivity status as indicted by its LED lights as follows:
Connection lost, 3-5 minute delay. Connection acquired, 2 minute delay. While deploying detectors, the top LED blinks green indicating the detector is connected to the HUB. If the color of the LED light changes to light purple, this indicates the detector is not connected to the HUB. Move closer to the HUB until the LED blinks greens indicating the connection is established or place another detector from the same network in-between to facilitate a hop. A hop is defined as a communication to the HUB by using a neighboring network detector as a repeater to reach the HUB. US WARNING!
Introduction of obstructions (for example vehicles) between detectors and/or the HUB after deployment can prevent connection to the network of the obstructed detector and neighboring detectors. Selection of detector location and worksite controls must be used to prevent introduction of obstructions. Failure to follow this warning can result in serious injury or death. ALTAIR io360 33 A detector must be within the range of the HUB in order to be a part of the network. Under ideal line of sight conditions, the range is up to:
Deployment 915 MHz radio:
HUB to detector: X meters (X feet) Detector to detector: X meters (X feet) 868 MHz radio:
HUB to detector X meters (X feet) Detectors that are out of range of the HUB are able to make up to two hops through neighboring detectors to extend the range. Under ideal line of sight conditions, each hop will have the aforementioned distances. An example of this is shown below:
Fig. 10 Maximum Network Range The maximum linear distance can extend up to:
915 MHz radio: X meter (X feet) 868 MHz radio: X meter (X feet) 5.1.2 Disclaimers Connectivity will be impacted by obstructions common to work sites such as: concrete walls, tanks vessels, piping, corrugated metal, steel framing, rain and humidity. WARNING!
US A SensorShield must be installed on detector(s) in all situations where the detector(s) may be subject to conditions that could lead to blockage of the sensor path (including, but not limited to, rain, water spray, dusty or dirty environments, snow and ice storms or icing conditions). Failure to do so may result in erroneous gas readings or inability to detect a gas event. 34 ALTAIR io360 5.2 Environmental Considerations 5.2.1 SunShield The SunShield is required on detectors to avoid exceeding maximum operating temperature and/or false alarms. The SunShield is securely held in place by the magnet on the back of the detector as shown below. With the SunShield installed, the D-ring and magnet can still be used for installation. Deployment Fig. 11 SunShield US ALTAIR io360 35 Deployment 5.2.2 HUB The HUB placement:
Ambient temperature range: -20C to +60C Humidity Range: 10 to 95 % r.H. (non-condensing) Avoid exposure to weather to reduce excessive wear. Powering the HUB Option 1:
(1) Connect Ethernet (optional).
(2) Connect Power to HUB assembly.
(3) Connect power to mains supply in non-hazardous location. Option 2:
(1) Power the HUB in a non-hazardous location.
(2) Move assembly into hazardous location. Mounting the HUB US After the HUB is powered, mount HUB to its final location. Mount HUB to its final location is valid for both option 1 and 2. It needs to follow option 1 and 2. Use four screws to fasten the wall brackets to the surface and apply a torque of 45 in-lb +/- 5 in-lb (5 Nm +/- 1 Nm). NOTE: It is the customer's responsibility to ensure the mounting system is properly chosen and installed such that it is capable of supporting 20 pounds of weight. Ensure the connectors and wires are supported to remove the stress and strain on the HUB. 36 ALTAIR io360 Deployment 5.2.3 Detector Mounting WARNING!
Do not use attachment methods containing spark producing materials including but not limited to magne-
sium. Failure to follow this warning can result in serious personal injury or death. Place the detector using the D-ring or the magnet. Attachment methods include but limited to carabiners, S-hooks, and/or cable ties. It is the user's responsibility to choose an attachment method suitable in a poten-
tially explosive atmosphere. Fig. 12 D-Ring Mount The back of the detector has a magnet that can be used for gently placing the detector on appropriate surface. Fig. 13 Magnet Mount 5.3 Mobile Device Assisted Deployment While the app is not required for deploying a network, using the app offers the following benefits. GPS location can be recorded during deployment for safety io Grid users only Create a note in the app about detector placement US Test evacuation notices 5.3.1 Network Connectivity For each detector(s):

There are two alarm levels: low alarm and high alarm. The detector alerts the Sensor Missing alarm if the detector detects that the sensor is not properly installed in the detector or is not functional. During power on, if a sensor is detected as missing, the detector display prompts the user of "Sensor Change?". If sensor was intended to be removed, press the detector button to acknowledge the missing sensor. If the detector button is not pressed at when prompted the detector will enter Fault state 20. The Sensor Change can be acknowledged but restarting and pressing the detector button when prompted. Reminder: The detector must be calibrated every time the front housing is separated from the battery holder. 6.2.2 Sensor End of Life Warning If a sensor is nearing its end of life, the detector will warn the user following a sensor calibration by displaying the heart warning. The sensor is still functional, but the warning gives the user time to plan for a replacement sensor and minimize downtime. The heart symbol will be continuously displayed on the detector display. To determine which sensor is End of Life, press the detector button to advance gas reading until the second heart is displayed on that display screen as shown below. 6.2.3 Sensor End of Life Indicator If the detector cannot calibrate one or more sensors, the detector will display "Span Fail" followed by the Alarm symbol and heart symbol to indicate end of sensor life. US Failed calibration displays as alarm bell ringing. ALTAIR io360 41 Operation 6.2.4 Exceed High and Low of Sensor When a gas reading exceeds the full scale range of the sensor, the detector displays can "XXX" or "+++" in place of the actual reading. When a gas reading falls below a defined under-range threshold, the detector displays " ---" in place of the actual reading. For combustible sensors, the sensor reading is in in locked alarm. The sensor reading is in over-range. The sensor reading is in under-range. For the combustible sensor to return to normal operation after the locked alarm, the detector must pass calibration. The over-range or under-range of a sensor will clear when the sensor reads gas reading within the normal range, i.e. no action is needed from the user. 6.3 Monitoring Oxygen Concentration The detector monitors the oxygen concentration in ambient air. The alarm set points can be set to activate on two different conditions:
Enriched - oxygen concentration > 20.8 % or Deficient - oxygen concentration < 19.5 %. While the detector can detect up to 30 % oxygen in the ambient air, it is approved for use only up to 21 %
oxygen-content. The LOW alarm (oxygen deficient) is non-latching and will automatically reset when the O2 concentration rises above the LOW set point. If the alarm condition still exists, the button only silences the alarm for five seconds. False oxygen alarms can occur due to changes in barometric pressure (altitude) or extreme changes in ambient temperature. US It is required that an oxygen calibration be performed at the room temperature. Be sure that the detector is in known fresh air before performing a calibration. 42 ALTAIR io360 6.4 Monitoring Combustible Gases The detector has been optimized for a response to Methane. The detector can monitor these concentrations in ambient air:
Operation Response Factor 1 Gas Type Methane Propane Hydrogen Acetylene 1.4 1.1 1.2 The detector displays the combustible gas concentration in % LEL or % Vol CH4 on the Measuring screen until another screen is selected or the detector is turned off. WARNING!
A combustible gas reading of "100" or "5" indicates the atmosphere is above 100 % LEL or 5.00 % Vol CH4 respectively, and an explosion hazard exists. Move away from contaminated area immediately. Failure to follow this warning can result in serious personal injury or death. Check your national standard values for 100 % LEL (EN60079-20-1). 6.5 Environmental Factors A number of environmental factors may affect the gas sensor readings, including changes in pressure, humidity and temperature. Pressure and humidity changes affect the amount of oxygen actually present in the atmosphere. 6.5.1 Pressure Changes 6.5.2 Humidity Changes If pressure changes rapidly (e.g., stepping through airlock), the oxygen sensor reading may temporarily shift and possibly cause the detector to go into alarm. While the percentage of oxygen may remain at or near 20.8 % Vol, the total amount of oxygen present in the atmosphere available for respiration may become a hazard if the overall pressure is reduced by a significant degree. If humidity changes by any significant degree (e.g., going from a dry, air conditioned environment to outdoor, moisture laden air), oxygen readings can be reduced by up to 0.5 %, due to water vapor in the air displacing oxygen. The oxygen sensor has a special filter to reduce the effects of humidity changes on oxygen readings. This effect will not be noticed immediately, but slowly impacts oxygen readings over several hours. 6.5.3 Temperature Changes The sensors have built-in temperature compensation. However, if temperature shifts dramatically, the sensor reading may shift. US ALTAIR io360 43 Operation 6.6 Data During detector operation the typical data is recorded for analysis and review, which includes:
Alarm set points Alarms event, acknowledge, and clear Evacuation event, acknowledge, and clear Battery warning and battery warning acknowledge Battery alarm and battery alarm acknowledge Battery shutdown RFID read events Time synchronize events Enter and leave configuration mode Enter and leave calibration mode Calibration information Faults BLE connection change Combustible sensor activated Network connection changes Sensor locked alarms Time and date of events 6.6.1 Data Log Detectors store gas reading data internally. Default data log settings record is 60 days of data at 30 minute data reading intervals. To retrieve data:
(2) Connect to app.
(1) Press the detector button to enter interactive mode. US a) Follow app prompts to retrieve data. If using Grid, data is stored directly to Grid account. If free account is set up, the user submits email address to Grid, a report of data will be sent via email. If no account is set up, the user can download data in CSV format. 6.7 HUB The HUB is operated with an external supply voltage of 24 V DC. The HUB must only be operated in the ambient temperature range and at the relative humidity (non-
condensing) specified. A sudden power failure can cause a loss of data of the last minutes if operating data is saved periodically. The HUB must only be operated with a distance of at least 20 cm to the user's body. The HUB must only be used with approved antennas. 44 ALTAIR io360 Calibration and Bump 7 Calibration and Bump WARNING!
Detectors will not be performing hazardous gas sensing operations while calibrating. Failure to follow this warning can result in serious personal injury or death. The detector must equilibrate to room temperature before bump or calibration. Calibration Certification All applicable inspections, testing, and calibrations were performed using NIST traceable equipment, where available, in accordance with MSA's ISO 9001 Certified Quality System. 7.1 Bump Test WARNING!
7.1.1 Event Induced Calibration 7.1.2 Calibration Time Guide 7.1.3 Bump Frequency Perform Bump Test per the instructions in this manual. Failure to perform this test can result in serious personal injury or death. This test quickly confirms that the gas sensors are functioning. MSA recommends calibrating detector(s) each time the batteries are changed, after every factory reset of the detector(s), and every time the detector(s) is subjected to physical shock. If the detector(s) is bump tested daily, MSA recommends calibrating the detector(s) at least every six months. MSA recommends detector calibration every 30 days if bump testing occurs infrequently. Bump test frequency may be stipulated by national regulations. Bump test frequency may be stipulated by national regulations. In the absence of national standards, corporate regulations must stipulate bump test frequency. Bump testing must be conducted at a minimum before each deployment of a device. When use conditions permit, bump testing should be performed daily. If tested, the device must pass the bump test. If it fails the test, perform a calibration before using the device. US A bump test must be performed more frequently than daily if any of the following occur:
The device is subjected to high levels of contaminants. The device is subjected to rain or water spray. The tested atmosphere contains the following materials, which may desensitize the combustible gas sensor and reduce its readings:
Organic silicones Silicates Lead-containing compounds Rain The SensorShield is not installed. Hydrogen sulfide exposures over 200 ppm or exposures over 50 ppm for one minute The device is exposed to conditions that could lead to blockage of the sensor path (including but not limited to snow and ice storms, icing conditions, rain or water spray, dusty or dirty environments). ALTAIR io360 45 CSA requires (per 22.2 NO. 152) that combustible sensor sensitivity be tested before each day's use on a known concentration of methane equivalent to 25 to 50 % of full scale concentration. ACCURACY MUST BE WITHIN 0 to +20 % OF ACTUAL. Correct accuracy by performing the calibration procedure described in section 7.2.1 "Calibration".
