G7 DOCK

G7 Dock needs a continuous power source. However, you can use an external battery as long as it supplies at least 1000 mA.

With G7 at approximately 30-degrees, align the charge port (on the bottom of G7) with the charge clip on G7 Dock. Lower the top of G7 into G7 Dock, until you hear a click. You will know G7 is connected as it will start to charge and bring up the dock menu on the screen.

G7 Dock is only compatible with Blackline’s G7 devices.

To make changes to Dock’s inlets:

1. Sign in to Blackline Live and go to the Docks page from the main menu.
2. Click on the dock who’s inlet you want to change.
3. Select edit in the top right corner of the inlet configurations section and change the inlet settings as necessary — ensure the settings you put into the portal match what is written on your gas cylinder.
4. Once the settings are saved, put a G7 into the Dock and select dock update from the device menu.

NOTE: You will need edit permissions in Blackline Live to complete the above steps. Talk to your manager if you have not been given the right permissions.

To troubleshoot a calibration or bump test failing, check the following:

• That you are using the correct gas that G7 specifies
• That your inlets are hooked up properly and the tubing does not have any kinks
• That your gas cylinder has an adequate amount of gas
• That G7 is placed correctly in dock
• That Dock has an adequate power source
• That Dock is on a stationary surface, do not place G7 Dock on vibrating equipment or hold Dock during bump/calibration

If you are still getting an error message, please contact Blackline’s Customer Care team.

G7 Dock can still calibrate, bump and charge your device even if you do not have a connection to the Blackline Safety Network. When G7 gains connection, it will communicate the bump or calibration to Blackline Live.

After updating Dock’s configuration, it must be manually prompted to update. To do so, place G7 in G7 Dock and select dock update from the menu.

Your G7 device will inform you if there is a problem starting a calibration or bump test. A likely reason for this error is that G7 dock’s lid has not been properly closed – when closing the lid, ensure that you press down on both sides so that both red release tabs click into place.

G7 Dock’s flow rate is near 400 ml/min. A bump test’s gas application lasts for around 10 seconds, equating to 60-70ml of gas usage. A calibration’s gas application lasts for around 2 minutes, equating to around 800ml of gas usage.

If your bump tests continue to fail, your sensors may require a calibration. If a bump test is due, G7 Dock will automatically bump test after G7 is placed within the dock.

In the case that your bump test fails:

1. Leave G7 in G7 Dock. Do not open the lid or remove the device.
2. Press G7’s OK button until you have cleared the bump test results.
3. This will lead you to the dock menu. From this menu, use G7’s up and down arrows to navigate to calibration
4. Press OK to select calibration
5. G7 Dock will calibrate your device

If your problem continues to persist, please contact our Customer Care team.

When your regulator shows below 100psi, it is time to replace your gas cylinder. Your bump test and calibration may fail due to your cylinder not having adequate gas. To reorder your gas cylinder, please contact your account manager or our Customer Care team.
