70 Gem-5 User’s Manual
A spoken message tells the user that one or more of the detector sections or detectors
is clean or contaminated (CLEAN.WAV or CONTAM.WAV as appropriate). The
contaminated result screen will show “*High Contamination” across bottom (instead
of “Contaminated”) and plays HICONTAM.WAV (instead of CONTAM.WAV) if the
High Alarm Activity (or High Alarm Emission Rate) value has been exceeded and
the High Contamination Alarm (or High Emission Rate Alarm) has been enabled
(see F1 – Common Values).
