Abstract

Methods, apparatuses, and systems for diagnosing misalignment in gas detecting devices are provided. An example method may include causing at least one detector component of a receiver element of the open path gas detecting device to generate a first light intensity indication corresponding to first infrared light; causing the at least one detector component to generate a second light intensity indication corresponding to second infrared light; and generating an alignment indication based at least in part on the first light intensity indication and the second light intensity indication.
