Before we start looking at the advice, a quick side note: we had a couple of women in the audience who are not mums, and they found the event just as useful - if you're reading this, and you're freelance, you'll get some positive action from Annies's book. Whether it's reassurance, inspiration, knowledge - I've been freelance for over ten years and things have changed a lot. Put some new tools in your toolkit. Annie's book is just £7 from Jarrolds.
This week I feel like a cloud has lifted after a number of months feeling quite flat (career-wise), I suddenly have hope and a bit of clarity for the future! I took voluntary redundancy from my job in HR and assumed I'd look for another similar role but with three kids it's not easy to find a flexible senior position (@mother_pukka 's #flexappeal campaign couldn't have come sooner). I know I'd never dared leave without a plan so a restructure and a pretty toxic environment was the push I needed. I attended @wegotthissometimes event with @annieridout and @steph_dontbuyherflowers @dontbuyherflowers this week and something just clicked!
Many thanks to co-sponsors Minivino Wines who bought their recyclable, resealable wines for everyone to try, and to Liz their Marketing Director who helped women in the speed mentoring sessions. Huge thanks also to Ginger Fashion on Timber Hill, who showcased their big Scamp and Dude range and gorgeous Norfolk cushions. Please follow them, and buy their things - the event couldn't happen without them! Little Freddie supplied gorgeous gift sets of organic food for mums to try with their weaning babies, which went down very well.
Have a look at @wired_mama - she made this wire art for We Got This which I love!
What did I find most useful?
Know what to delegate and when - you can only grow if you delegate.
I mentioned a We Got This (Sometimes) business club, which seemed to have a lot of support - that's what I'll be working on next. I'll be in touch - if you'd like to know more, there is a mailing list on this link called #PowerHour Business Events - that's where I will send details, or please email me here.
There were surveys on your chairs for Liza, a student who is planning a Wellness event for mums - a digital version is here if you missed it, please feel free to complete if you didn't attend, the survey is here.
Being a food marketing person who can't cook, and is defeated by meal plans, food shopping, cooking, all of it, these products are genius. In fact, it's safe to say my husband has been doing more and more of the cooking. When you know you're no good at it, there's little motivation. HOWEVER I came across Bace Foods in the EDP in the summer, and then met them by chance at a local school fete. These products are helping us, so I went to meet them so I could share this kitchen hack with you.
It's a range of base sauces made by a mum and dad in Hethersett. I LOVE them. It's a cooking hack that saves time chopping veg, and gets a variety of veg into your cooking that your family might not eat in its natural state. Suzy and Steve spend hours and hours cooking British beans and peas, blending with vegetables and hand filling tubs - and that is the base for your chilli, curry, soup, baked eggs, pretty much anything!
They are totally on trend - plant based, helps reduce meat consumption, vegan, British, healthy, they tick all the boxes. Before I go on - you can buy at their online shop (free delivery if you spend more than £10 in Norfolk), and at tonnes of farm shops round the county. I asked Suzy to make us (as in, you and me) a meal plan using Bace. So the idea is, you have a stock of Bace Foods in your fridge or freezer, and you can turn your hand to these easy, easy recipes. I know in general food bills are high, so I asked Suzy to cost each recipe per head, and they range from £1.03 per person to £2.17. Not bad!
When you use these sauces instead of your own chopped veg, it gives a better depth of flavour, makes it tastier and gives your meal more nutrients. There are no preservatives, the sauces are hot filled which makes them last without preservatives.
The process is a real labour of love: pulses are soaked the night before, all the stones are removed, the veg is prepared, peeled and cleaned. The pulses are pressure cooked to all have the same tender consistency in three huge pressure cookers. The veg is cooked and then blended to a smooth consistency, and the herbs and flavour is added now or after. After blending the veg in the pan with the pulses, it is all heated, and then carefully hand filled into pots.
Not only are busy mums like us finding it a good kitchen hack, but schools and care homes are buying catering size packs - imagine all our kids and relatives getting such goodness, easily.
You'll find Bace Foods at a variety of stockists in Norfolk and they sell online across the country.

8393611911 Encyclopædia Britannica, Volume 13 — Hofmann, Melchior
HOFMANN, MELCHIOR (c. 1498-1543-4), anabaptist, was born at Hall, in Swabia, before 1500 (Zur Linden suggests 1498). His biographers usually give his surname as above; in his printed works it is Hoffman, in his manuscripts Hoffmann. He was without scholarly training, and first appears as a furrier at Livland. Attracted by Luther's doctrine, he came forward as a lay preacher, combining business travels with a religious mission. Accompanied by Melchior Rinck, also a skinner or furrier, and a religious enthusiast, he made his way to Sweden. Joined by Bernard Knipperdolling, the party reached Stockholm in the autumn of 1524. Their fervid attacks on image worship led to their expulsion. By way of Livonia, Hofmann arrived at Dorpat in November 1524, but was driven thence in the following January. Making his way to Riga, and thence to Wittenberg, he found favour with Luther; his letter of the 22nd of June 1525 appears in a tract by Luther of that year. He was again at Dorpat in May 1526; later at Magdeburg. Returning to Wittenberg, he was coldly received; he wrote there his exposition of Daniel xii. (1527). Repairing to Holstein, he got into the good graces of Frederick I. of Denmark, and was appointed by royal ordinance to preach the Gospel at Kiel. He was extravagant in denunciation, and developed a Zwinglian view of the Eucharist. Luther was alarmed. At a colloquy of preachers in Flensburg (8th April 1529) Hofmann, John Campanus and others were put on their defence. Hofmann maintained (against the "magic" of the Lutherans) that the function of the Eucharist, like that of preaching, is an appeal for spiritual union with Christ. Refusing to retract, he was banished. At Strassburg to which he now turned, he was well received (1529) till his anabaptist development became apparent. He was in relations with Schwenkfeld and with Carlstadt, but assumed a prophetic rôle of his own. Journeying to East Friesland, (1530) he founded a community at Emden (1532), securing a large following of artisans. Despite the warning of John Trypmaker, who prophesied for him "six months" in prison, he returned in the spring of 1533 to Strassburg, where we hear of his wife and child. He gathered from the Apocalypse a vision of "resurrections" of apostolic Christianity, first under John Hus, and now under himself. The year 1533 was to inaugurate the new era; Strassburg was to be the seat of the New Jerusalem. In May 1533 he and others were arrested. Under examination, he denied that he had made common cause with the anabaptists and claimed to be no prophet, a mere witness of the Most High, but refused the articles of faith proposed to him by the provincial synod. Hofmann and Claus Frey, an anabaptist, were detained in prison, a measure due to the terror excited by the Münster episode of 1533-1534. The synod, in 1539, made further effort to reclaim him. The last notice of his imprisonment is on the 19th of November 1543; he probably died soon after.
Two of his publications, with similar titles, in 1530, are noteworthy as having influenced Menno Simons and David Joris (Weissagung vsz heiliger götlicher geschrifft, and Prophecey oder Weissagung vsz warer heiliger götlicher schrift). Bock treats him as an antitrinitarian, on grounds which Wallace rightly deems inconclusive. With better reason Trechsel includes him among pioneers of some of the positions of Servetus. His Christology was Valentinian. While all are elected to salvation, only the regenerate may receive baptism, and those who sin after regeneration sin against the Holy Ghost, and cannot be saved. His followers were known as Hofmannites or Melchiorites.

(1852); F. O. zur Linden, M. Hofmann, ein Prophet der Wiedertäufer (1885); H. Holtzmann, in Allgemeine deutsche Biographie (1880); Hegler in Hauck's Realencyklopädie (1900); Bock, Hist. Antitrin.

WARNING: Power-off the monitor before servicing the unit or replacing the battery.
WARNING: Substitution of components may impair intrinsic safety and may cause an unsafe condition. AVERTISSEMENT: La substitution de composants peut compomettre la securite intrinseque.
CAUTION: High off-scale readings may indicate explosive gas concentration(s). ATTENTION: Des lectrures supérieures a l'échelle peuvent indiquer des concentrations explosives.
CAUTION: Any rapid up-scale reading followed by a declining or erratic reading may indicate gas concentration(s) beyond the upper scale limit which may be hazardous.
Silicone compound vapors or other known contaminants may affect the combustible gas sensor and cause readings of combustible gas to be lower than actual gas concentrations. If the monitor has been used in an area where silicone vapors were present, always calibrate the monitor before next use to ensure accurate measurements.
Factors that Affect Monitor Performance
Oxygen-deficient atmospheres may cause combustible gas readings to be lower than actual concentrations.
Oxygen-enriched atmospheres may cause combustible gas readings to be higher than actual concentrations.
Sudden changes in atmospheric pressure may cause temporary fluctuations in the oxygen reading.
Verify the calibration of the combustible gas sensor after any incident where the combustible gas content has caused the monitor to display an over-range condition.
Sensor openings, water barriers, and the pump inlet must be kept clean. Obstruction of the sensor openings or pump inlet and/or contamination of the water barriers may cause readings to be lower than actual gas concentrations.
To avoid the potential of liquid being pulled into the sample tubing and pump assembly, it is recommended that Industrial Scientific filter (P/N 17027152) be used on the sample tubing when drawing samples using the aspirated monitor.
WARNING: INSERT THE ALKALINE BATTERIES WITH THE CORRECT POSITIVE "+" AND NEGATIVE "-" ORIENTATION. WARNING: The Ventis MX4 is only approved for use with AAA battery types Energizer EN92 and Duracell MN2400. Do NOT mix battery types.
The Ventis MX4 is CSA certified according to the Canadian Electrical Code for use in Class I, Division 1 and Class I, Zone 1 Hazardous Locations within an ambient temperature range of Tamb: -20°C to +50°C. CSA has assessed only the %LEL combustible gas detection portion of this instrument for performance according to CSA Standard C22.2 No. 152. This is applicable only when the monitor is used in the diffusion mode and has been calibrated to 50% LEL CH4, and when the monitor is used in the aspirated mode with an extended range lithium-ion battery and has been calibrated to 50% LEL CH4.
CAUTION: CSA C22.2 No. 152 requires before each day's usage, sensitivity must be tested on a known concentration of pentane or methane equivalent to 25% or 50% of full scale concentration. Accuracy must be within -0% to +20% of actual concentration. Accuracy may be corrected by referring to the zero/calibration section of the Product Manual.
WARNING: The use of leather cases can produce inaccurate readings with diffusion (non-aspirated) gas detection instruments for specific monitoring applications. Leather cases should be used ONLY as carrying cases, and NOT for continuous monitoring, with diffusion instruments configured to measure gases other than O2, CO, CO2, H2S, and combustible gases (LEL/CH4).

ALARMS NOTICE All monitor alarms and warnings should be taken seriously and responded to as stated in company safety
standards. It is practical for the monitor user to be aware of the possible alarms prior to monitor set-up and use. The Ventis MX4 has four alarm and warning levels. A "system level" alarm generates the highest frequency tone and highest level visual and vibration signals. It is used to indicate such events as a pump or sensor failure. The "high" or "low" level audio alarms, in combination with visual and vibration indicators, turn on when gas concentration readings are over-range, high, or low. The lowest level indicator is a warning with beep patterns to indicate service needs (e.g., low battery or calibration due). The beep is also used as a confidence indicator when enabled. Alarm types and their alarm generating conditions are described below. Display Description
Over-range Alarm Screen The "Or" message indicates which sensor(s) is reading an over-range condition(s). All other sensors show their current gas concentration readings on a numeric display (left) or gas names on a text display (right). The high level alarms turn on and the alarm icon displays.
An over-range condition occurs when the gas concentration value sensed is above the sensor's measuring range. After any over-range alarm, the monitor should be calibrated. NOTES: The O2 and toxic sensor values normally reset when the gas sensed reaches an acceptable range. If the LEL reads over-range, the alarm latches and the LEL sensor is automatically turned off. Press the enter button to turn on the LEL sensor. This will turn off the alarm indicators. After a warm-up period of approximately 30 seconds, an LEL reading will display. If the new reading is an over-range or other alarm condition, the alarm indicators will turn on.
Negative Over-range Alarm Screen The "-Or" message indicates which sensor is reading a negative over-range condition. All other sensors display their current gas concentration readings*. The high level alarms turn on and the alarm icon displays.
A negative over-range condition occurs when the gas concentration value sensed is less than the sensor's measuring range. After any negative over-range alarm, the monitor should be calibrated.
High Alarm Screen A flashing gas concentration value* indicates which sensor(s) reading(s) is the cause for alarm. The high level alarms turn on and the up arrow icon displays.
A high alarm condition occurs when the concentration of gas sensed reaches a level greater than the monitor's high alarm value setting for a sensor(s).
Low Alarm Screen A flashing gas concentration value* indicates which sensor(s) reading(s) is the cause for alarm. The low level alarms turn on and the down arrow icon displays.
A low alarm condition occurs when the concentration of gas sensed reaches the monitor's low alarm value setting for a sensor(s).
TWA Alarm Screen A flashing gas concentration value* indicates which sensor(s) reading(s) is the cause for alarm. The low level alarms turn on and the TWA icon flashes.
A TWA alarm occurs when the calculated time weighted average reaches the monitor's hazardous value for the set time frame.
STEL Alarm Screen A flashing gas concentration value* indicates which sensor(s) reading(s) is the cause for alarm. The low level alarms turn on and the STEL icon flashes.
The STEL alarm occurs when the short term exposure value exceeds the acceptable limit.
No Sensor Installed Screen The system level alarms turn on and the error icon displays.
Alarm occurs when the monitor registers no sensors installed.
Sensor Data Fail Screen A flashing "F" indicates which sensor is the cause for alarm. The audio alarm turns on and the error icon displays.
Alarm occurs when any installed sensor's data-related operations fail and the sensor is not operational.
Pump Fault Alarm The system level alarms turn on and the error icon displays.
Alarm occurs when, if attached, the pump is not operating correctly. While in alarm, every ten seconds the monitor attempts to restart the pump. If unsuccessful, the monitor remains in alarm.
Low Battery Warning Screen A beep sounds every 30 seconds and the empty battery icon flashes.
Alarm occurs when the monitor's battery reaches a low level of charge or is nearing its end of life.
Bump Overdue Screen A "b" indicates which sensor(s) is overdue for bump testing. Two beeps sound every 30 seconds and the calendar and alarm icons display.
Alarm occurs when one or more sensors are due for a bump test. If the monitor settings permit, an in-field bump test may be performed in an area known to be nonhazardous.
Calibration Due Alarm Screen The gas value flashes for each sensor overdue for calibration. Three beeps sound every 30 seconds and the calendar and alarm icons display. The gas cylinder icon flashes.
Alarm occurs when one or more sensors are due for calibration. If the monitor settings permit, an in-field calibration can be performed in an area known to be nonhazardous.
* The numeric mode display shows gas concentration values; the text mode display shows gas type names in place of gas values.
►Monitor Set-up Preparing the monitor for first time use is a "3-C" process: charge (if equipped with a lithium-ion battery pack), configure, and calibrate. This manual section covers charging and configuration for set-up purposes and can be consulted for ongoing instruction thereafter. Immediately following this section, calibration is covered in the manual section, Use and Service. BATTERY PROPERTIES AND MONITOR COMPATIBILITY Based on the customer order, the Ventis MX4 comes equipped with one of three factory installed batteries: rechargeable Lithium-ion (Li-ion), rechargeable Extended Range Lithium-ion (extended range Li-ion), or replaceable alkaline. The factory installed battery pack type is stated on the label affixed to the monitor box. Basic battery properties and acceptable monitor/battery combinations are shown below.

CHARGING THE LITHIUM-ION BATTERY PACKS The lithium-ion battery packs are charged at the factory. As some or all of the charge may deplete before the monitor arrives or is unpacked, it is recommended that the monitor be fully charged before first time use. The lithium-ion equipped Ventis MX4 can be charged with any of the products listed below.
DS2 Docking Station™ for Ventis MX4 V-Cal™ Calibration Station V-Cal™ 6-Unit Calibration Station Single Unit Charger Single Unit Charger/Datalink 6-Unit Charger Single Unit Automotive Charger, 12 VDC Single Unit Truck-Mount Charger, 12 VDC, with Cigarette Adapter Single Unit Truck-Mount Charger, 12 VDC, Hard Wired
NOTE: The above products are all equipped with a yellow LED "presence" indicator. This LED confirms that the monitor is properly seated in the cradle such that the monitor can charge; however, it is NOT intended to be used as a charging indicator. This LED indicator may go out intermittently during normal charging functions and will not light if the unit is fully charged when placed in the cradle. Always refer to the monitor display's battery level indicator to confirm the battery charge level.
The Single Unit Charger is generally shipped with the monitor. Equipped with a movable partition, which fits in each of two dedicated slots, it charges the diffusion and aspirated monitors with their compatible lithium-ion battery packs. Place the partition in the back slot for a diffusion or aspirated monitor with an Extended Range Li-ion battery pack. Place the partition in the front slot to charge a diffusion monitor with a Li-ion battery pack. Instructions
NOTICES Charge the monitor in an area known to be nonhazardous. When using the charger and adjusting its partition, take care NOT to touch the battery contacts located at
the front of the cradle bottom.
The single unit charger has a universal power cord; change the plug insert, if needed, and plug into the appropriate outlet.
To properly adjust the partition, if needed, complete and observe the following. o Lift up to remove from slot. o Push down to place in the desired slot. o When partition is inserted correctly, a click sounds.
Recommended Practice: To prevent the loss of the partition, it should always reside in the cradle in one of its two dedicated slots. Choose the most used slot. Do not place the partition in the forward most compartment of the charger where the battery contacts are located.
To properly place the monitor in the charger, complete or observe the following. o The monitor's display side faces the user. o The charging contacts on the monitor bottom meet the contact pins inside the charger's cradle. o Refer to the monitor's battery icon to confirm the battery charge level.

The Ventis MX4 can be configured manually as instructed below. Any changes made take effect immediately upon exiting the configuration mode. Configuration can also be completed through Industrial Scientific Accessory Software (ISAS) or the Docking Station Server Administrative Console (DSSAC), software tools for users of iNET, DS2 Docking Station for Ventis, V-Cal Calibration Station, and the Single-Unit Charger/Datalink. For instruction on the use of these software tools, please consult the respective manual. When the monitor is part of a fleet maintained by DS2, any manual changes made to the monitor's settings are overridden by the DS2 settings when the monitor is next docked. Instructions
NOTICES The configuration mode should be accessed only by safety personnel authorized to change monitor settings
based on company policy. Read ALL requirements and instructions outlined below, including the screen-by-screen process description,
before beginning the configuration process. The configuration mode can be entered during the 20-second countdown of the power-on process. During the countdown, simultaneously press ON/OFF/MODE and ENTER, hold for three seconds, and release to enter configuration mode. (While in the configuration mode, the same button presses cause the monitor to exit configuration). Each configuration screen times out after 30 seconds and the monitor enters gas monitoring mode. To re-enter the configuration mode, power-off the monitor, then power-on and repeat the entry process.
Throughout the configuration process, the main functions of the two buttons are as follows. The ENTER button is used to edit values. It is also used, where noted, to begin a process or a step in a
process. The ON/OFF/MODE button is used to set the value. Where noted, it is also used to bypass a process or
step in a process, or to advance to the next configuration screen. The first screen to display in configuration mode depends on three things:
security code setting, the presence or absence of the China MA feature, and the presence or absence of an LEL sensor. If the security code setting is 000, the security feature is disabled and the Enter Security Code Screen does NOT appear. If the security code is NOT 000, the security feature is enabled and the monitor displays the Enter Security Code Screen. The monitor next checks for the presence of a China MA mining feature. If this feature is operational, the monitor displays the Zero Initiate Screen. If the China MA mining feature is NOT operational, the monitor then checks for an installed LEL sensor. If installed, the monitor displays the LEL Type Screen. If no LEL sensor is installed, the monitor displays the Zero Initiate Screen.

►Monitor Use and Service Proper monitor use and service includes everything from bump testing and calibration to keeping the monitor clean, proper air sampling, and the replacement of parts and components. Beginning with calibration and bump testing, the following sections provide information and instruction on all use and service tasks. ZERO, CALIBRATION, AND BUMP TESTING Gas detection instruments are potentially life-saving devices. When completed regularly, the procedures defined below help to maintain proper instrument functionality and enhance operator safety.
Procedures Configuration. The configuration process allows qualified personnel to review and adjust a unit's settings. Bump Test (or "functional test"). Bump testing checks for sensor and alarm functionality. The installed sensors are briefly exposed to expected concentrations of calibration gases that are greater than the sensors' low alarm set points. When one or more sensors "pass" the test, they are "functional" and the unit will alarm. Each sensor's "pass" or "fail" result is indicated on the unit's display. Note: a bump test does not measure for sensor accuracy (see "Calibration").
Zero. Zeroing sets each installed sensor to recognize the ambient air as clean air. If the ambient air is not truly clean air, any gasses that are present and relevant to the installed sensor types will be measured and displayed as zero. Readings will be inaccurate until the unit is correctly zeroed in truly fresh air or with a zero air cylinder. Calibration. All sensors gradually degrade over time. This diminishes a sensor's ability to measure gas concentrations accurately; however, regular calibrations adjust the instrument to compensate for this decline in sensitivity. During calibration, the installed sensors are exposed to expected concentrations of calibration gases and, when needed, the instrument will self-adjust to ensure the accurate measurement and display of gas concentration values. Note: when a sensor has degraded beyond an acceptable level, no further adjustment is possible and the sensor will no longer pass calibration.
Peak Readings. The instrument stores the highest detected gas readings, the "peak readings" or "peaks". Bump testing and calibration will often register new peak readings. Therefore, the clearing of the peak readings should follow each calibration. The instrument operator may also wish to clear the peak readings after a bump test, before a change in location, or after an alarm is addressed and cleared. Note: The peak readings and the data log readings are stored independently of one another; therefore, clearing the peak reading does not affect the data log. Powering the instrument off or changing its battery does not affect the peak reading. These checks and balances help promote operator safety, and serve to contain the peak readings in a "black-box" manner. In the event of a gas-related incident, this black-box record can be useful to the safety team or a prospective investigator.
Recommendations Industrial Scientific Corporation (ISC) minimum frequency recommendations for each procedure are summarized in the table below. These recommendations are based on field data, safe work procedures, industry best practices, and regulatory standards to help ensure worker safety. Industrial Scientific is not responsible for setting safety practices and policies. These policies may be affected by the directives and recommendations of regulatory groups, environmental conditions, operating conditions, instrument use patterns and exposure to gas, and other factors. Procedure ISC Recommended minimum frequency Configuration Before first use and as needed thereafter. Calibrationa Before first use and monthly thereafter. Bump testb Prior to each day's use. aBetween regular calibrations, ISC also recommends a calibration be performed immediately following each of these incidences: the unit falls, is dropped, or experiences another significant impact; is exposed to water; fails a bump test; or has been repeatedly exposed to an over-range (positive or negative) gas concentration. A calibration is also recommended after the installation of a new (or replacement) sensor. bIf conditions do not permit daily testing, bump tests may be done less frequently based on company safety policy. Note: The use of calibration gases not provided by ISC may void product warranties and limit potential liability claims.
General information The zero, calibration, and bump testing tasks are in-field enabled or in-field disabled in the configuration process. This permits or denies access to these functions from the gas monitoring mode. When any of these options is enabled, it is accessible to all monitor users. In gas monitoring mode, a series of presses on the ON/OFF/MODE button gives the user access to the following screens and processes in the order shown.
Gas Monitoring Screen Days Since Calibration Zero Initiate (if in-field enabled)
o Calibration Apply Gas Screen (if in-field enabled) Bump Test Initiate (if in-field enabled) Peak Readings TWA Readings STEL Readings
The monitor is capable of performing two types of calibration, and this option is set in configuration mode. The calibration type selected also determines the monitor's bump test type. With a "quick" calibration, the monitor is set to calibrate and bump test all installed sensors simultaneously. With a "standard" calibration setting, these tasks are completed independently for each installed sensor in the order shown below.

Instructions Calibration and Bump Testing with Calibration Cup and/or Tubing Read all instructions before beginning: notices, supply check-list, gas cylinder preparation, and the complete screen-by-screen walk-through of the zero, calibrate, and bump test processes. Each process is presented in the order in which it is accessible from gas monitoring mode.
NOTICES Industrial Scientific recommends that full monitor calibration be performed, using a known certified
concentration(s) of Industrial Scientific calibration gas(es), to prepare the monitor for first time use, and monthly (at a minimum) thereafter, to help ensure monitor accuracy.
Industrial Scientific also recommends that each monitor be zeroed and bump tested before each use with a known certified concentration(s) of Industrial Scientific calibration gas(es).
Read ALL requirements and instructions outlined below, including the screen-by-screen process description, before beginning the zero, calibration, or bump testing processes.
Only qualified personnel should zero, calibrate, or bump test a monitor. Zero, calibration, and bump testing functions should be performed in a fresh air environment known to be
nonhazardous. After calibration or bump testing, or after terminating either process, stop the flow of gas.

Diffusion monitor with positive flow regulator. Aspirated monitor with demand flow regulator. Prepare the gas cylinder for use According to the supply chart above, attach the correct regulator to the gas cylinder and turn clockwise to tighten. Next, choose instruction A., B., or C. based on the monitor/regulator combination in use.
A. Aspirated with demand flow regulator
Attach either end of the tubing to the cylinder's nipple. DO NOT ATTACH THE OTHER END OF THE TUBING TO THE MONITOR BEFORE REACHING THE "APPLY GAS SCREEN". Completing the connection of the tubing will cause gas to flow. If gas is applied before reaching the appropriate screen, the monitor will go into alarm and a failure will be logged.
B. Aspirated with positive flow regulator The calibration tubing with the t-fitting (not included) has two different sized openings, a narrow opening at one end and a wider opening at the other end.
Attach the wider opening to the nipple on the cylinder's regulator. Attach the smaller opening to the pump inlet.
DO NOT APPLY THE GAS BEFORE REACHING THE "APPLY GAS SCREEN". If gas is applied before that point, the monitor will go into alarm and a failure will be logged.
C. Diffusion with positive flow regulator Attach either end of the tubing to the cylinder's nipple. Attach the other end of the tubing to the calibration cup's nipple.
DO NOT ATTACH THE CALIBRATION CUP TO THE MONITOR OR APPLY THE GAS BEFORE REACHING THE "APPLY GAS SCREEN". If gas is applied before that point, the monitor will go into alarm and a failure will be logged.

To Terminate Press ON/OFF/MODE while the gas cylinder icon flashes to terminate the quick calibration process (or to skip a sensor's calibration in standard calibration) and return to the gas monitoring mode. To Calibrate From the already prepared gas cylinder, start the flow of gas as noted below for the monitor/regulator combination in use.
For an aspirated monitor with a demand flow regulator, complete the tubing connection from the regulator to the pump inlet. For an aspirated monitor with a positive flow regulator, turn (counterclockwise) the regulator's knob. For a diffusion monitor with a positive flow regulator: Place the calibration cup over the upper portion
of the monitor's case top (front of monitor). To attach properly, complete or observe the following. o The cup fully covers the sensor ports. o The monitor's display and buttons are NOT
covered. o The cup's side arms fit securely in the
grooves on the sides of the monitor. o The Ventis MX4 name on the calibration
cup is upright and readable. o The cup's nipple points up and away from
the monitor. Turn (counterclockwise) the regulator's
knob.
Sensor Results Screen* Pass (top) or Fail (bottom) Screen The display alternately shows a "P" for pass (or "F" for fail) and the final span value reading for each sensor. A check mark displays and a single beep sounds. NOTE: The "span reserve" of a sensor measures its sensitivity. The displayed span value divided by the calibration gas value equals the span reserve percentage. A span reserve percentage of greater than 70% indicates a "good" sensor; 50%-70% indicates "marginal" sensitivity. When the span reserve percentage is less than 50%, the sensor will not pass calibration.
STOP THE FLOW OF GAS. After calibration, or if calibration is terminated at anytime during the process, stop the flow of gas as follows.
For an aspirated monitor with a demand flow regulator, disconnect the tubing from the pump inlet. For an aspirated or diffusion monitor with a positive flow regulator, turn (clockwise) the regulator's knob.
All Sensors Pass The user returns to the mode from which the calibration process was entered (configuration or gas monitoring).

purplehearts Seem To Find "No Way Out" With the Latest Piece
MichaelJamo July 30, 2022 Music, Videos Leave a comment
purplehearts, whose actual name is Mario Mitchell, is a Springfield, Missouri-based independent musician. purplehearts has self-released over 50 songs, 7 EPs, and over 30 music videos since his start in January 2016. purplehearts is due to release his first full-length album, "Teeth Grinding Nail Biter," on October 28th, 2022, and his most recent single "No Way Out", published on July 15th, is from the album.
Set over guitar-driven cuts and electric synthesizers, "No Way Out," tells the story of navigating the "system" while simultaneously serving as a rebellious hymn about manipulating that same system to benefit you as an individual as much as possible. Purplehearts' songs personalize and personify these ongoing problems.
"No Way Out" is razor-sharp in every way. The music is straightforward, engaging, expressive, and cheerful, and the vocals are clear and powerful. The strong guitar work and percussion rhythms work is flawless, leaving audiences in awe. The song is written against a dark stone wall, with neon lights in magenta and purple filling the room. "No Way Out" is kept basic, with purplehearts singing against a band and a DJ booth, enabling the actual core of the song to shine through.
My inspiration for this song was that there's no way out of this system no matter what we do, and everything we know is kinda bullshit," purplehearts shares. "The verses allude to how I just stay to myself in my own little world because I am in this whole 'system' as much as anyone else, but I'm navigating around it to benefit myself as much as possible.
The music is intriguing and leaves listeners with great expectations. The lavish rhythms and intriguing guitar riffs rapidly elevate your mood and make you want to succumb to wherever this music leads you. purplehearts' vocals are as powerful as the music, and the song has an incomparable dynamism that will likely make you wiggle, all with a touch of nostalgia.
Listen to "No Way Out" by purplehearts on Spotify and watch the video with the link above and let us know what you think. Cheers!
There's no way out
So don't fall down
It never gets easier
When you hit the ground
