3.5. Bluetooth® Reach-Back Mode (Optional)
Sync Software, synchronizing the I™, and re-booting it you are
now ready to reach-back data from the I™. The reach-back set-
tings are persistent, meaning that the I™ will not have to be
re-configured unless reach-back settings are to be changed.
After completing an isotope identification, the user can view extended iso-
tope descriptions(optional), create voice records (optional) and record image
files (optional), and then press the Reachback button to begin the reach-back
process.
The reach-back process uses the Bluetooth® RS232 device to make a connec-
tion to transmit the data.
The reach-back file package will always contain the identification record re-
gardless of what is selected by the user. A complete data package will contain
the identification record, spectrum file, voice file, image file, and GPS infor-
mation in a zipped file. If the spectrum file is selected by the user to be a part
of the data package, a .pdf image of the spectrum and its summary informa-
tion is also attached to the email separately from the zip file. If both spectrum
and image files are selected in the configuration, the spectrum will occupy
page one of the .pdf file and the image will occupy page two.
Upon completion of a reach-back session, the user may return to ID mode
or Doserate mode. Reach-back does not remove the information from the
I™.
3.5.3 Reach-Back In Monitor/Heartbeat Mode
After configuring the Reach-Back settings using the PC software, the I-
™ can be operated in monitor/heartbeat mode to transmit current
conditions from the instrument to the user’s reach-back service using a mobile
telephone equipped with a modem and dial-up networking (DUN) or a Blue-
tooth® RS232 adapter. The reporting interval is determined by the user and
can range from 2 to 1800 seconds. When establishing the interval, take into
account the transmission times and set the interval accordingly.
