Additionally, the Detective X allows the collection of a set of spectra — measurement blanks, knowns, and
unknowns — and pack them all into a single N42 file so Reachback personnel can be certain of the conditions
under which each spectrum was collected. Measurements can be sent to Reachback automatically over a
wired or wireless internet connection (Section 4.12).
Figure 34 provides a simplified roadmap of the Detective X software, as configured by default. The software
starts up on the Detect Mode screen. All other screens are accessible from this screen in a hierarchical
manner.
Tapping the
Settings
button on the Detect Mode screen opens the Settings screen, which gives all
users access to the major functions needed to search for and identify radionuclides.
Tapping the
Advanced
button opens the Advanced Setup page, which accesses CONOPS-dependent
configuration settings and spectrometry functions. Because of this, access to the Advanced Setup
page can be password-protected (see Section 4.17).
