How to Make a Dosimeter Measurement
After the ion chamber is connected to the Detector, push O on the Detector and Display.
Note
If the mAs Detector is already connected, an mAs Measurement Option
screen can show in the display. Go to the How to Use the mAs Detector
manual section to set the mAs measurement options. When done, come back
to this section to continue the Dosimeter measurement.
Once connected to the Dosimeter Detector, the system checks if an ion chamber is set for
the measurement. If set, the MEASUREMENT screen in Figure 2-15 shows in the
Display. If an ion chamber is not set, then the IC NOTIFICATION screen shown in
Figure 2-13 shows in the Display. Go to the Ion Chamber Setup section if an ion chamber
is necessary for the measurement.
