When  testing  and  calibration  are  completed,  the  "Search  α",  "Measure  α  ",  "Search  β", 

"Measure  β"  options  will  be  listed  in  the  menu  indicating  that  BDAB  is  correctly  connected  to 
Display  and  Control  Unit  РМ1403,  Figure  7.4  (1).  If  BDAB  is  connected  but  Display  and  Control 
Unit  РМ1403’s  LCD  doesn’t  display  the  above  mentioned  menu  items,  then  select  “Find  detector” 
line in the Display and Control Unit РМ1403’s menu, Figure 7.4 (2). 

Select the line using the Display and Control Unit РМ1403’s cursor keys. Use “SELECT” to 

switch to the operation mode.

Measurement mode of 

- radiation flux density ("

 Measurement Mode") 

 

To measure 

- radiation flux density: connect BDAB to Display and Control Unit РМ1403 and 

enter the indication mode. 

 

Attention!  Handle  the  detector  window  of  the 

-radiation  detector  with  care  (don’t 

damage it) when doing measurements with 

- filter removed. 

 

Select "α measurement Mode" and follow commands displayed on Display and Control Unit 

РМ1403’s LCD. Press NEXT to continue, Figure 7.5 (1). 

Display  and  Control  Unit  РМ1403’s  LCD  will  indicate  a  count  rate  value  specified  by 

common 

- radiation during measurement of 

-radiation flux density – "Alfa + Beta + Gamma"
