BLUETOOTH REMOTE MONITOR
This instrument is equipped with a feature that can be used to show output data
on an Android smartphone or tablet using the Bluetooth module in every
instrument. When not using the Bluetooth feature, the unit is used in normal
fashion. In order to use the Remote Monitor, an application (app) must be
installed on your Android phone or tablet.
This feature is installed on Model 815 kVp Meters serial number 646 and up and
Model 820 kVp/mA Meters serial number 329 and above.
This feature is provided as a convenience so that it is not necessary to go into
the x-ray room to observe the meter after each reading. There is also a file save
capability which can assist in recording data.
