When it is switched on, the WaveMon RF will show the power of the present
electric or magnetic eld by means of signal lamps. The ambient power density
is shown as a percentage of the regulated limit. The signal lamps show the
maximum levels of the instantaneous electric and magnetic eld power density,
but the record of both is stored in memory. There is also the option of displaying
the average power density. The instantaneous value is shown with a single
flash each second, while the average is shown with two short flashes.
Bear in mind as well that the average eld value, based upon the instantaneous
eld, is stored in memory to allow analysis of your exposure in respect of
international standards.
The user can learn the power density by observing the number of blinking lights.
Power density indication starts when it is over 10% of the established limit. A
colour code is also used so that the user does not have to focus continually on
the device.
If the power density is lower than 50% of the limit, the lights showing the present
power density will blink green. If the power density is higher than 50% but lower
than 100% of the limit, the lights showing the present power density will blink
orange. When the power density is over 100% of the limit, the lights will blink red.
Note: correlation between LED, power density and eld strength
