3.1 Dose Rate Mode radEAGLE User Manual

Analog

A schematic chart modelled after a traditional LED chain shows the current dose rate.

A horizontal scale along the chart reﬂects your current warning and alarm thresholds

(see 5.17, p. 66).

Warning and alarm indicators are illuminated if the dose rate rises above the thresh-

olds (Fig. 22, p. 32, Fig. 23, p. 32).

If your model is equipped with a neutron detector, the neutron data display

switches to a blue background for neutron incidents according to the speciﬁed

sensitivity, (see 5.17, p. 66).

Neutron sources are dangerous, they are always considered as threat. If the

instrument indicates the presence of neutron radiation, move away from the

source immediately.
