Settings and Commands
Reset
Reset the timer and clear the spectrum recorded so far.
Analyze
Initiate the analysis of the spectrum before the preset recording duration elapsed.
Continue
Continue with the Easy ID spectrum acquisition after an analysis. Sometimes, the
preset duration was simply too short or the source is very weak, so extending the
duration gives additional trust in the result.
Exit
Return to the superior screen.
3.3 Detect Mode
The Detect measuring mode is a tool to locate radiation sources by giving rapid visual and
audio feedback to the changing dose rate of incoming radiation.
The tool starts with measuring the background radiation (Fig. 23 , p. 35 ).
It is preferable to take the background in a low radiation environment. If you are in a
facility with a high natural background or with multiple radiation sources present, the
detection capability adapts to this situation.
