Radiation
“Radiation” is a sub-menu allowing access to the “Enable,” “Value,”
“Multiplier,” and “Units” associated with the radiation alarm for View 1.
If the alarm is enabled, the instrument will generate an alarm message and
tone when the current view radiation rate is equal to value represented by the
“Value,” “Multiplier,” and “Units” associated with the alarm.
Note: The error associated with displaying the radiation rate on the
measurement view is one numerical unit. As a result, an alarm value of
20mR/hr may appear to generate an alarm when the radiation rate displayed
is between 19.9 and 20.1 mR/hr; however, the detected radiation rate was
20.0 mR/hr.
Enable
“Enable” represents the ability to enable the integrated dose alarm for the
current view. “Enable” is a special field and valid values include “Off”
and “On.”
Value
“Value” represents the numerical value of the integrated dose alarm given
the supplied multiplier and units. “Value” is a numeric field with valid
values from 0 to 999.
Multiplier
“Multiplier” represents the multiplier associated with the integrated dose
alarm. “Multiplier” is a special field with valid values of micro, milli, unity,
kilo, and mega.
Units
“Units” represents the units associated with the radiation rate alarm.
“Units” is a non-editable field as it must be equal to the units associated
with the current view measurement rate.
Integration
“Integration” is a sub-menu allowing access to the Enable, “Value,”
“Multiplier,” and “Units” associated with the integration alarm for View 1.
If the alarm is enabled, the instrument will generate an alarm message and
tone when the current integrated dose is equal to value represented by the
“Value,” “Multiplier,” and “Units” associated with the alarm.
