The LCD screen may display any of the following information:
- gamma Dose Equivalent Rate (DER) in µR/h;
- Dose Equivalent (DЕ) in µR;
- n coefficient: number of mean square deviations for the gamma threshold (also
called “alarm multiplier”);
- Messages "tSt", "CAL", "OL", "oFF", "bAt", "ot", etc.;
- “
” audio alarm sign (if audio alarm is enabled);
- “
” vibration alarm sign (if vibration alarm is enabled);
- Blinking “h” (history) symbol
(in the Search and DER measurement modes) -
indicates that there has been an alarm activation and information about it hasn’t been
uploaded to a computer;
- Blinking “S” (search) symbol – indicates that the Search mode is currently on;
- Critical battery discharge: displayed when the battery voltage drops below
1.15 V.
An analogue bar in the lower area of the LCD display indicates the time left until
self-tests or background calibration are completed.
In the Search mode, DER measurement mode and DE indication mode the
analogue scale segments represent the dynamics of radiation environment change. The
bar represents a relative excess of the measured value over the set alarm threshold.
