2.10 CONNECTING EXTERNAL PROBES
External probes can be quickly and easily connected to the RDS-32, there is no need to switch
off the meter first.
To connect the external probe to the meter, first remove the rubber protection cap of the
connector by pulling the cap out. Before making the connection to RDS-32, make sure the
cable is well connected to the probe. Then observe the correct orientation by matching the
internal ledge of the connector to the groove on the meter connector. This step is very
important to avoid bending the connector pins. Finally, turn the fixing sleeve clockwise until it
is firmly fastened.
Most probes are detected automatically. The display will show CSP.INIT or the symbol
while the connection is being established. For probes with an internal memory, the radiation
detection starts without any need for additional input. For the few probes without internal
memory, the meter will prompt to select a detector type before measurement begins. For
detailed probe settings by probe type, see Chapter 3.11 External Probes.
