Mirion Technologies instadose Dosimeter - Manual (Page 3)

To open your device, hold the clip and turn 180 degrees to either side to extend the USB connector.
HOW THE DEVICE WORKS
This breakthrough technology provides radiation workers
with a precise measurement of radiation dose and
includes accurate long-term exposure tracking. A built-in
memory chip stores each user’s identity via an embedded
unique serial code that is assigned to the user.
Instadose dosimeters provide users with the flexibility
to view radiation dose at any time from any computer
with internet access. Readings via a PC are enabled by a
USB compatible detector. Before use, each device must
be registered online at www.instadose.com. During the
registration process, the driver and client are installed on
the user’s computer and the device is initialized for use.
When a user wishes to obtain a reading he or she simply
logs-in to his or her account at www.instadose.com,
The accumulated dose stored on the device processes
through a proprietary algorithm. This fully automated
transfer of data minimizes the chance of human error
and misidentification. Once complete, a graphical
representation of the current dose displays on the screen.
The user can then [click] “View Cumulative Dose” to
receive cumulative dosage information.
Within your facility the instadose dosimeter can be
read up to a cumulative dose of 12 rem, for exposures
exceeding this limit the device would need to be sent in
for processing and reporting.
A variety of reports are available to view and download.
To generate a report, a user must first select the start
and end periods. To further customize the report a user
can select a specific person, group or location. Once the
selection process is complete and “Run this report” is
[clicked] a new window will open with the results of the
report shown. Users can print or download reports into
excel, PDF, Power Point, RTF , or Fully Editable RTF files.
The site is available in serveral langauges including
English, French, Japanese, and Spanish.
