Dose Increment Notification
The top green LED gives the rate of dose increment
(one flash each 1 µSv) associated with a configurable
audible beep (see below).
2.2.3
Remaining Time before Alarm
Displayed as a timer counting down, the time to alarm
corresponds to either the time alarm or the time to
reach the dose alarm point, whichever is shortest.
The time to reach the dose alarm point is calculated
as follows:
time duration before dose alarm = (dose alarm threshold
- cumulative dose) / current dose rate
2.2.4
Add-on Module
An additional module, such as a telemetry device can
be attached at the bottom of the DMC 3000 simply by
removing the battery cover.
All these add-on modules have their own parameters
saved on non-volatile memory and modify the confi-
guration of the DMC 3000 when attached to it.
