|description = To use an Air Alarm, first swipe your ID across it to unlock it. There are multiple options: | |||
'''Activate Atmospheric Alarm''': Self Explanatory. The Alarm will show on the Atmos Alert Computers and alerts the AI. | |||
'''Scrubbers Control''': Controls the scrubbers in the area. Select specific gases to be filtered. Choose between two settings for the scrubbers, scrubbing and syphoning. | |||
* Scrubbing will slowly drain any gases set to filter in the air of the tile they are on, and transfer it to their pipe. Really, really slow with N2O. | |||
* Syphoning will do the same, except indiscriminately and drain all gases on their tile. | |||
'''Vents Control''': you control vents through the air alarm. There are the following settings: | |||
* '''''External on''', Internal off'': will drain/add air from the tile the vent is on to make it reach the selected pressure. All air being moved goes into/comes out of the pipe the vent is attached to. Set to 0 to drain air, or pressurise to specific levels. | |||
*'''''Both on''''': completely useless. Don't bother. | |||
* ''External off, '''Internal on''''': Drains/adds air to the tile to get the pipe attached to the selected pressure level. Setting a vent to internal and the desired pressure to 0 causes ALL gas which enters the pipe to be shunted out onto the tile. | |||
'''Set Environmentals Mode''': you can select a preset mode for the scrubbers and vents in the area: | |||
* '''''Filtering''''': Default mode, scrubbers are set to "Filter", vents are set to keep the area at normal pressure (101kPa). | |||
* '''''Draught''''': scrubbers are set to "Syphon" and vents are On. | |||
* '''''Panic''''': scrubbers are set to "Panic Syphon" and vents are Off. | |||
* '''''Replace air''''': scrubbers are set to "Syphon" and vents are Off. Nearly identical to "Panic". | |||
* '''''Off''''': Both scrubbers and vents are Off. | |||
'''Sensor Settings''': Let's you change the minima and maxima for pressure, temperature and specific gases to automatically activate the alarm. | |||
'''Activate Panic Syphons''': They turn all vents off and set all scrubbers to syphon. You *can* do better than that, but most of the methods involve setting vents to suck, and if you need a panic syphon, then sucking contaminated air into Distro kinda sucks. | |||
