Frequently Asked Questions
COSTS Why do I save costs when using Dräger X-dock?
The daily test is important – but it costs time and money. Especially the as
consumption plays an important part. The often used flow of 500ml/min and
test periods of e. . 60 seconds result in a hi h as consumption. For instance,
1000 tests carried out usin these parameters would result in a consumption of
500 liters of as!
The Drä er X-dock has ot typical openin times for the as supply valves with
a fast as application test of 10 seconds or even less for ases such as CH4, O2,
CO and H2S. In addition, it uses a flow of 300ml/min. With these parameters
a consumption of 50 liters with 1000 tests is achieved which means savin 90%
of as compared to the volumes mentioned above.
X-dock does not waste as: When the value is reached the valves are closed
immediately.

Frequently Asked Questions
SOFTWARE What are the benefits of using a central database?
The Drä er X-dock saves all data locally. But when usin a central database
all pieces of information can be viewed directly without havin to collect
data laboriously. The data can be saved easily and processed for analysis.
The functionalities of the Drä er X-dock Mana er support you in this.
The Standard version offers a user administration the so-called Cockpit
(overview of the important parameters of the as detection instrument ran e),
the administration of the as detection instruments and the stations.
The Professional Version additionally offers an issue and return function for the
as detection instruments for the users and the report assistant which prepares
different overviews and reports also periodically and sends them e. . by e-mail.
What is the difference between the X-dock Manager Standard and the Professional Version?
The database and the database mana ement are free of char e – even if you
use it to link different X-dock stations.
The “Client Software”, the Drä er X-dock mana er is liable to cost. A license must
be purchased once, however, a 30-days test license is available free of char e.
The X-dock Mana er processes the data of the system, prepares reports and
supports you in keepin an eye on everythin .
Do I have to pay for the PC Software?

Frequently Asked Questions
SOFTWARE What do I have to consider when installing the PC Software?
With the simplest installation variant there is not much to consider: You only have
to enter the IP of the computer/server you use and assi n an IP to the system.
It is important to ensure that no firewall blocks the data communication.
For further information please contact your Drä er representative.
In the extended version you can also chan e the ports used and you may also
use your existin database later, if applicable.
One possibility is to use an USB stick. When lo ed in, all available certificates
and datalo er can be copied onto the stick via the menu.
How can I access the data of the station, if I do not use an X-dock Manager?
HOME
Yes. As of now apart from Ecal Drae erware as well supports the X-dock. To do
so, the server part of the X-dock software must be installed and the Drae erware
confi ured accordin ly. As soon as this was done Drae erware automatically
receives the test results of the as detection instruments and the evaluations
can be done via the Drae erware as usual.
Does Draegerware also support X-dock?
This test method is used to confi ure an automatically executed test process, for
example, runnin a test every day at 7:30 in the mornin . This means supported
devices are char ed at ni ht for an early mornin automated start and test.

Frequently Asked Questions
How can I view the read out dataloggers of the gas detection instruments?
You can open the datalo er with the CC Vision which is free of char e
and thus convert it into a text file. The more comfortable way would be to
use Gas Vision. Via the X-dock Mana er a direct link is already available
to open and view datalo ers with Gas Vision.
For the time bein CC Vision will remain the tool to confi ure the as detection
instruments. However, from now on CC Vision is available free of char e.
For the time bein Gas Vision will remain the tool to visualize the datalo ers
and to support you with the analysis.
For the time bein means that in the medium term both software are to be
transferred to the X-dock Mana er.
Do I still need CC Vision and Gas Vision?
CC-Vision may be used to set measured as, calibration as and bump test as
if the device supports this functionality. X-dock then searches for and loads the
respective as accordin ly. Conversions occur automatically if the measured as
does not match the calibration or bump test as. If possible, measured as is
recommended to use for all tasks.
How do I have to configure a device in order to have the relevant test gas assigned?
HOME
This hi hly depends on the confi uration and the number of tests run.
With 2 x 2 GB (redundant) internal memory a system which e. . carries out
40 tests per day and does not read out datalo ers or creates certificates,
can store local data for 10 years. If datalo ers are read out, more tests are
carried out or certificates created, this service life is certainly reduced.

Yes. The X-dock Mana er offers this option. However, under the settin s of the
X-dock you have to confi ure a SMTP server so that the e-mail can be sent via
this server.
SOFTWARE Can I send the reports via e-mail as well?
There are two ways to do this.
1) In the Device tab you can chan e the sort order. In this case all you need to
do is to sort by “Next Bump Test Date” or “Next Calibration Date”. Overdue
devices will then appear at the top of the list.
2) In the Professional Version there are reports in the Report tab entitled
“Overdue Gassin Tests” and “Overdue Adjustments” respectively. The
correspondin report can then be created periodically, but also as a one-off.
This will show all overdue devices.
I can see in the Cockpit that tests and ad ustments are overdue. How can I find out which
devices are affected?

Frequently Asked Questions
MISCELLANEOUS Can I use modules with different firmware at one station?
X-dock requires modules and masters with the same firmware. It is not possible
to use modules and masters within a station that do not use the same firmware;
this results in an error messa e. In this case, please perform a simple USB
update. Modules that have not been reco nised prior are now updated to the
same firmware version.
However, it is possible to combine different firmware versions of different
stations in a network. Nevertheless, this is not recommended and the latest
supported firmware should be used on all stations.
HOME
Which type of printers is supported by the X-dock station?
The X-dock Mana er certainly supports all printers that are tri ered via the
Windows operatin system. If you want to print directly with the Drä er X-dock
station please ensure that the printer connected via an USB stick is “postscript
compliant”. Please contact your Drä er representative for a complete list of
supported printers.
The quick bump test checks exceedin of the first alarm level. As soon as this
limit was exceeded the test is re arded as passed. In many cases this test is
sufficient.
The extended bump test oes one step further – it checks the accuracy of the
sensors every time. This means it is checked whether the value appears in
a window around the concentration of the test as.

Frequently Asked Questions

An extended bump test compares the actual concentration of the test as cylinder
is compared with the concentration indicated by the device. The concentration
must be within a tolerance band after a certain stabilization phase. The tolerances
may be set for each device with CC-Vision. However, it is recommended to use the
values tested and approved by Drä er. Since this test checks the deviation, it is not
necessary for values to exceed or drop below the pre-alarm threshold. The test is
therefore more accurate and more flexible, but it is also slower and consumes
a little more as.
What exactly is tested during the extended bump test and must the pre-alarm threshold
also be exceeded here?
Drä er X-dock does this for you. Tolerances should be defined sensor-specific,
since not every as can be filled into test as cylinders with the same tolerance
(for instance, H2S, HCN or THT often have a tolerance of 10%, but methane or
carbon monoxide only have a tolerance of 2%).
The sensor accuracies differ as well. Therefore each device has a sensor-specific
tolerance – and makes your work easier. However, if you still want to set your
own tolerance you are able to override the iven tolerance via the CC-Vision
Software.
Am I able to set tolerances for the test?
MISCELLANEOUS What exactly is tested during the quick bump test and can every concentration be used?
The quick bump test checks whether values exceed or fall below the pre-alarm
threshold. Drä er demands increased reliability and therefore does not permit
just any concentration. Therefore, parameters are stored in the device for each
as type allowed as minimum and maximum concentration. Furthermore, a time
is defined for every as, indicatin how lon a value must have exceeded the
pre-alarm threshold in order to ensure reliability with all ases. This means the
maximum allowable concentration is dependent on the selected pre-alarm and
the factor that is stored in the device as the maximum permissible concentration.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is a charging option available for the gas detection instruments?
Yes. Gas detection instruments usin rechar eable batteries can be char ed,
if the Plus variant of the module was purchased. All Plus variants can char e
and apply as!
HOME
It is recommended to connect mixed ases, includin EX ases, to the first
valve, since the first valve is used first. This means the mixin adjustments are
carried out first, which usually already processes the majority of the sensors. In
addition, the process does not contain nitro en, which reduces recovery times
in CAT EX sensors, since these have now been adjusted respectively tested.
MISCELLANEOUS Is there a recommended gassing order?
Yes. Some ases such as THT or EO are not or hardly available in concentrations
above the first alarm limit.
Durin the extended as application test the Drä er X-dock checks for an accuracy
window. This can also be below the alarm limit – however, this is not arbitrary.
Drä er X-dock supports you here as well and rejects test as concentrations that
are unsuitable. Nevertheless, e. . a concentration of 10 ppm EO is accepted.
This also represents the first alarm limit and even if this is not exceeded while
the measured value is within the window, the test is re arded as passed.
Can I carry out a gas application test, if the applied calibration gas concentration
is below the alarm limit?
