The Rad-DX can operate in a stand-alone mode with information displayed on the LCD display. 
Options  for  the  Rad-DX,  such  as  display  types  and  radiation  units,  can  be  set  using  the 
following process: 

1.

 

Connect the Rad-DX device to a power source, either by using the A/C plug or wiring it 
directly to the junction box (see Physical Installation, Section 2.2.1) 

2.

 

The following will appear on the LCD screen as the Rad-DX boots up. 

 

 
3.

 

The Dose Rate Screen will appear on the LCD screen after the booting sequence is 
complete.   

4.

 

The red lines shown below indicate the touch zone areas for each screen.  

 

Reset the dose to zero by touching “Total radiation.”  

 

Touch “Dose Rate” to change the units displayed. 

 

Change the time frame by touching the time frame displayed in the lower right of the
