Enter Glance Mode
Note: The instrument must be configured so that Glance Mode is turned on (the default mode
is "On").
With the MultiRAE turned off, press and hold [MODE] and [N/-] together to enter Glance Mode.
The feature is latched, meaning that it runs even after you release the keys. If you see the
message "GLANCE DISABLED," you must configure the instrument to use Glance Mode.
Screens
After releasing [MODE] and [N/-], the other screens can be displayed by pressing the [N/-] Key.
Note: Some screens continue on secondary screens. Where you see "More," press [Y/+] to see
these.
Exit Glance Mode
MultiRAE exits Glance Mode and turns off when you press the [MODE] key. In addition, if you
do not press either key in 60 seconds, the MicroRAE automatically exits Glance Mode and turns
off the instrument.

Pump Status

IMPORTANT!
During operation, make sure the probe inlet and the gas outlet are free of obstructions.
Obstructions can cause premature wear on the pump, false readings, or pump stalling. During
normal operation, the pump icon alternately shows inflow and outflow as shown here:
If there is a pump failure or obstruction that disrupts the pump, the alarm sounds and you see
this icon blinking on and off:
Once the obstruction is removed, you can try to restart the pump by pressing the [Y/+]. If the
pump does not restart, and the pump stall alarm continues, consult the Troubleshooting
section of this guide or contact Honeywell Technical Support.
It is advisable to perform a pump stall test periodically, to make sure the pump is working
properly and there are no leaks in the system. To perform a pump stall test, simply block the
gas inlet with your finger. To pass the test, the instrument should go into a pump alarm. Press
[Y/+] to disable the alarm and return to normal operation.
Note: Pump Status is not indicated on diffusion MultiRAEs.
Note: For all MultiRAE instruments with a PID (in Search or Hygiene mode), if the pump is in
alarm for more than five minutes, the PID lamp automatically turns off. The display reading
shows "- - -" and there is a "Lamp" alarm. Click [Y/+] to restart the pump. If there is no longer a
pump alarm, then the PID lamp will require a 2-minute warm-up to stabilize. During this time,
