Color Coding Definitions
The GPM software uses a color coding scheme to help you clearly identify specific conditions within your data. As
you review the rest of this document, and as you work with your system, please keep in mind the following color
coding definitions.
A “cell” is one element of data within either the Live View table or the
Recording View table. See the Screen layout section below for more details.
A cell is shaded LIGHT BLUE when the pressure within that Module climbs above the Pressure
Release value specified for the respective Module. When this happens, at the next live interval the
valve briefly opens and vents the gas until the pressure is correct.
A cell is shaded ORANGE when the Module has not communicated with the computer for at least 5
minutes of continuous time.
A cell is shaded GREEN when the battery voltage for the associated Module is 6.3 volts or higher.
A cell is shaded YELLOW for one of two reasons:
(1) the battery voltage for the associated Module is greater than 6.0 and less than 6.3 volts, or
(2) a Module has re-established communications with the computer after being disconnected for
at least 5 minutes. Cells in the Recording View turn from ORANGE to YELLOW when this
happens.
A cell is shaded RED when the battery voltage for the associated Module is 6.0 volts or lower.
When no Reference Module Zero is connected, the Current Pressure cell in column zero of the Live
View is shaded PINK and displays a pressure of 14.5. If data recording begins with no Reference
Module Zero connected, cells in column zero of the Recording View are shaded PINK and display a
pressure of 14.5.
