The Senscient ELDS laser-based open path gas detector uses a mobile device (laptop / tablet) for product configuration, commissioning, routine testing and fault diagnostics. These mobile devices are Microsoft Windows-based and run MSA/Senscient product specific software called Senscient Installation and Test Environment (S.I.T.E).

To ensure safe and reliable operation of Senscient ELDS product, the ELDS S.I.T.E software is only supplied pre-installed and tested on mobile hardware platforms that have undergone a rigorous test and validation program. It is the responsibility of the end user to maintain and update the Microsoft Windows operating system to a level that provides the best level of support needed from Microsoft. Microsoft registration keys; needed for upgrading the operating system; can be found on a sticker on the underside of a laptop or are hard coded into a tablet.

MSA/Senscient supplied mobile devices running a valid / registered Microsoft Windows 10 operating system and a pre-installed version of S.I.T.E software can download the latest version of S.I.T.E software free of charge by clicking on the update link within the S.I.T.E program when connected to the internet. MSA/Senscient supplied mobile devices running earlier versions of Microsoft Windows (i.e. XP or 7) or have not be registered will need to install and register the Microsoft Windows 10 operating system in the first instance.

For MSA/Senscient supplied systems that have upgraded to Microsoft Windows 10, MSA/Senscient will re-install and test the ELDS S.I.T.E software free of charge (excluding shipping charges) by return to the factory in Poole, UK.
