Docking
Docking
Communicating & Downloading Data
By using your docking station, USB cable, software, and your dosimeter, you can quickly
communicate between the software and the dosimeter. There are two methods for
communicating which are:
Send setup data: Enables you to configure your setup parameters in Detection
Management Software (DMS) and download these parameters to the Edge.
Retrieve data: You have the capability to retrieve the data from the dosimeter into DMS in
order to view and analyze your studies in DMS’s charts, tables, and reporting functionality.
How to connect your dosimeter to the computer
1. Dock the dosimeter on the EdgeDock1 (or 5) and turn on the dosimeter by pressing
the on/off Enter button.
NOTE: See charging your dosimeter for more information.
2. Plug the USB cable into the computer. (See “A” in Figure 3-4).
3. Plug the opposite end into the docking station (See “B” and “C”).
NOTE: The docking station will be powered through the computer; thus, you do not
need to plug in the charger adapter. If you want to charge the dosimeter, plug
in the charger adapter.
