1 • Overview
Chapter 1: Introduction
Overview
This chapter briefly describes the SDM-E2 Docking Station and the Single Module
Data Viewer Program. This chapter also describes the SDM-E2 Docking Station
Standalone Operation Operator’s Manual (this document). Table 1 at the end of this
chapter lists the SDM-E2’s specifications.
About the SDM-E2
The SDM-E2 Docking Station is an advanced, reliable system that provides charging,
calibration, bump testing, and calibration and bump test records for the EAGLE 2
portable gas monitor. It is designed to save the calibration and bump test records to a
USB flash drive (standalone functionality) or to be connected directly to a computer
(PC controlled functionality). If calibration and bump test records are stored to a USB
flash drive while operating in the standalone configuration, the Single Module Data
Viewer Program can then be used with a Windows-based personal computer to
retrieve calibration and bump test data files from the USB flash drive or from the
computer’s hard drive if the files have been transferred to the hard drive from the
flash drive. If you are using the PC Controller Program while operating in the PC
controlled configuration, you may retrieve instrument data, bump test, and calibrate
up to 10 instruments at once. Instrument information and data for each instrument
can be viewed directly using the PC Controller Program and can be printed from the
PC Controller Program. For instructions to use the SDM-E2 with the PC Controller
Program, see the SDM-E2 Docking Station PC Controller Configuration Operator’s
Manual.
The purpose of this manual is to explain how to set up and use the SDM-E2 in
Standalone configuration. It also explains how to use the Single Module Data Viewer
Program. You will learn how to:
• install and launch the Single Module Data Viewer
• prepare the SDM-E2 for use
• perform a bump test
• perform a calibration
• save calibration and bump test records to a USB flash drive
• view, print, and export calibration and bump test records
• use the SDM-E2 to charge an EAGLE 2

System Requirements • 2
CAUTION: The EAGLE 2 detects oxygen deficiency and elevated levels of
oxygen, combustible gases, carbon monoxide, and hydrogen sulfide,
all of which can be dangerous or life threatening. When using the
EAGLE 2, you must follow the instructions and warnings in the EAGLE
2 Operator’s Manual to assure proper and safe operation of the unit
and to minimize the risk of personal injury.
CAUTION: The operator of this instrument is advised that if the equipment is used
in a manner not specified in this manual, the protection provided by the
equipment may be impaired.
