Alarms
5.1 Dose and Rate Alarms or Warnings
On DMC 3000 rmware V.7, the DMC 3000 has 2 congurable dose alarms from 1 µSv to 10Sv and 2 con-
gurable rate alarms from 10 µSv/h (*) to 10 Sv/h for Hp(10) (X + Gamma) deep dose, X + Hp(0,07) Gamma +
Beta shallow dose or Hp(10) Neutron dose and 2 congurable total dose alarms Gamma + Neutron.
(*) Please contact Mirion Technologies for a rate set point between 1 µSv/h and 10 µSv/h.
Dose and rate warnings are acknowledgeable by pressing either push button for longer than 3 seconds.
The rate alarm and warning occur when the rate exceeds the set point. The rate alarm and warning disap-
pear when the rate decreases to 80% of the set point if latched feature is enabled (see §2.3.5 and §2.3.6).
On DMC 3000 rmware V.7, the displayed value of dose or rate blinks simultaneously with the indicator
when it has generated the alarm or warning, see example below.
Note:
When displaying a measure (here, Total dose), the value and DOSE
ALARM are blinking, notifying an alarm on the total
Gamma+Neutron dose.
