G. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
A. No... the dose rate and neutron count rate are fixed.
Q. Up to what distance can the Bluetooth communicate?
A. It is a class 2 device which usually operates up to 10 meters, but we
specify 5 meters maximum.
Q. Does Bluetooth® Mode function while the InterceptorTM is in sleep
mode (Unattended Surveillance Mode)?
A. No. Prior to setting up communications via Bluetooth®, the Intercep-
torTM must be in ’User Attended Mode’. Once communications have
been established, the InterceptorTM will remain in ’User Attended
Mode’.
Q. Can I add my own Bluetooth® GPS capability to my InterceptorTM?
A. No. Adding Bluetooth® GPS requires the InterceptorTM to be re-
turned to the factory. This feature can only be added to an Intercep-
torTM that currently has Bluetooth® capability.
Q. Can an InterceptorTM with neutron capabilities be transported on a
commercial flight?
A. For airline travel, the InterceptorTM with the standard neutron de-
tector can be transported in checked luggage. IATA/DOT regulations
prohibit it from being placed in carry-on luggage. The InterceptorTM
with the optional low-pressure neutron detector can be transported in
carry-on luggage. Users are responsible for ensuring that they comply
with all applicable regulations. Please refer to the latest IATA/DOT
regulations.
Q. I have an InterceptorTM with neutron capability. How can I tell if it
has the low-pressure neutron detector?
A. An InterceptorTM that is equipped with the optional low-pressure
neutron detector can be identified by navigating to the Info screen. If
the neutron detector is the low-pressure model, there will be a +L suffix
on the Device Type identification. For example, an instrument with
