2General description
X20DM2 simultaneously monitors the concentrations of:
PM10
PM2.5
PM1
TSP, Total Suspended Particle
Each channel measures its average value over the selected interval
time.
The channels are all synchronized and their values are sent to the
connected INFRA Datalogger, which stores them on its local
memory card, and uploads them to the dedicated data server. The last
interval value of channel 1 (PM10) can also be viewed in the
Datalogger display.
2.1 INFRA Field Monitoring system
The INFRA contact placed on the bottom of the cabinet shall be
connected to the INFRA Field Monitoring System by any of the
available INFRA Sensor Cables. This will handle the communication
with the Datalogger
3
. Normally, the cabinet needs also to be
connected to external power supply.
Within INFRA Field Monitoring System it is possible to measure a
number of other quantities simultaneously with the dust
measurements, for example:
vibration (geophone) in one direction
vibration (geophone) in three directions
sound level
air blast
weather (wind, rain, humidity, temperature)
etc.

3Configuration and operation
3.1 Parameters
The parameters described below are normally set using INFRA Net
Manager (Remote control), but can also be set using the display and
push-buttons of the Datalogger.
3.1.1 Standards
X20DM2 has two selectable standards, S01 and S02.
S01: The inlet air is heated. This standard is intended to be selected
when air humidity is above 50 %RH.
Note! This standard needs external power, because the battery of
Osiris is too weak to power the heating elements. If external power is
lost in this standard, the interval data will be tagged with
“Overload”.
S02: The inlet air is without heating. The instrument can be run
without external power for at least eight hours when Osiris internal
battery is fully charged.
Common for the two standards is that they deliver the four measured
channels:
Channel 1. PM10 Concentration.
Channel 2. PM2.5 Concentration.
Channel 3. PM1 Concentration.
Channel 4. TSP Concentration (Total Suspended Particle).
Each of these channels is the average value measured over the
selected Interval time. The unit of each channel is µg/m3.
Copyright ©Sigicom AB 2003-2015
9
3.1.2 Interval time
The interval time is how often the measured value of each channel is
registered
4
. The interval time can be selected to one of:
1, 2, 4, 5, 6, 10, 15, 20, 30 and 60 minutes
The default value is 15 minutes.
3.1.3 Upper threshold level
If the concentration of PM10 (channel 1) becomes larger than this
level, the Datalogger sends an updated interval file to the Data
server. Simultaneously, an (SMS or Server message) alarm is
possibly sent, dependent on your settings.
The Upper threshold level can be set to any value in the interval
5 –5000 µg/m3. There is also a parameter telling whether threshold
shall be used or not.
Note! Upper threshold level is only defined for PM10 (Ch. 1). This
means that it is not possible to trigger an SMS on any of the other
channels.
3.1.4 Customer string
The customer string consists of four characters, and can be selected
by the user. The default string is “DUST“.

3.2 Mounting
Please use the included hardware for pole mounting. Try to site the
monitors as near the point of public exposure as possible. For model
validation, it is important to cover a range of urban background and
roadside sites, if possible.
3.3 Start-up instruction
1. Connect your X20DM2 with one INFRA Datalogger (Master,
Mini or Micro) by using any of the available INFRA Sensor
Cables.
2. Connect X20DM2 to the external power. Osiris will then start
automatically.
Note! If you want to run without external power, you need to
manually start the Osiris by pressing its “ON - Reset” key. The
instrument can be run without external power for at least eight
hours when Osiris is fully charged.
3. Start the Datalogger and wait for the initialization process to be
finished.
4. Make necessary adjustments of the parameters:
• Standard (S01 or S02)
• Interval time
• Upper threshold level (on/off, and value if on is selected)
• Customer string
via Remote Control in the PC-application INFRA Net Manager,
or directly by using the Master display and buttons.
Note! Each standard has its own parameters (Interval time,
Upper threshold level, and Customer string).
5. Activate REG ON, and the measurement will be initiated.

3.4 Error checking
If there is a major malfunction, for example the Osiris dust monitor
stops because of no external power and the internal battery runs
empty, the Datalogger will display “Node lost” after a delay equal to
the selected interval time, see Appendix B Error handling for
details. To recover, after the error is fixed, try to make a “Forced
reboot” of the Datalogger (can be made from INFRA Net Manager).
Standard 1 needs external power, because the battery of Osiris is too
weak to power the heating elements. If external power is lost when
using this standard, the interval data will be tagged with “Overload”.
Also standard 2 need external power if we want to run for more than
one day.
3.5 Failure recovery
During start-up it might happen that the INFRA Datalogger says
"Node lost", but the Osiris is on (active). In this case it is
recommended to reboot the Osiris:
1. Stop registration (Reg off) and shut down the INFRA
Datalogger.
2. Remove external power from your X20DM2.
3. Shutdown the Osiris by simultaneously press the two buttons
"(START) STOP" and "" (left arrow)
4. Check that the display of Osiris doesn't show anything.
Otherwise redo the previous task.
5. Wait at least 5 seconds
6. Put back external power to your X20DM2.
7. Check that the Osiris display wakes up. Otherwise redo the
previous task.
8. Start registration (Reg On).
