3. Operating the INTERCEPTOR™
After establishing the interval, synchronize and re-boot the I™.
If the unit is operating in Doserate mode, it will transmit a data file on the
established interval that contains current dose and count rate conditions for
the instrument. If the unit is operated in SPRD mode, it will transmit current
dose and count rate conditions for the instrument on the established interval
until an event triggers the unit to go into ID mode. Upon completion of the
identification, the unit will transmit a data package as it does when “push” is
being utilized. The content of the data package is dependent upon the user
settings. SPRD Mode will continue to automatically go into ID mode and
transmit ID results until the dose rate subsides below the SPRD threshold
of 30µRem/Hr at which time the device will return to the interval reporting
mode.
Monitor/Heartbeat mode is recommended when the I™ is being
used as a fixed monitoring or surveillance device.
Note The I™ will not lapse into USM Mode while in Moni-
tor/Heartbeat Mode. s
