RDS-32 FUNCTIONALITY
27
In addition to the type of data sets mentioned above there are automatic records that are
stored into the histogram memory:
• Diagnostics (Automatic, manual or error found)
• reset of the dose or the max dose rate
• Calibration (New and old Coefficients are stored)
These data records also consume the histogram memory.
Calibration memory: The results of the 64 newest calibrations are stored in the memory. The
oldest are overwritten in case more than 64 calibrations are performed.
Diagnostics memory: The first start-up of the day is stored here. In case the instrument
operates continuously without being powered off, an automatic diagnostics is run at 00:00:00
and the results are stored into a specific diagnostics memory. This memory can store the data
of over one year of operation. When the memory becomes full, the oldest diagnostics data is
overwritten.
These special memory areas cannot be cleared with the configuration software but require
special service.
