16. A method for measuring a gas concentration, comprising:
-
coupling a sensory head to a mobile unit such that the sensory head receives at least power from the mobile unit and supplies a communication signal to the mobile unit, wherein the sensory head includes a controller, an identification reader coupled with the controller, and a gas sensor coupled with the controller; obtaining data representing an identifier from an identification tag positioned in, on, or proximal to a test area, using the identification reader; and in response to obtaining the data representing the identifier, taking one or more gas concentration measurements using the gas sensor. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19, 20)
