16. A message about the state of the background radiation based
on russian radiation safety standards NRB - 99/2009.
-
If the measured background radiation is less than 0.4 μSv/h, a green
message «radiation background normal» appears.
- If the measured background radiation is 0.4–1.2 μSv/h, a yellow message
«radiation background high» appears.
- If the measured background radiation is more than 1.2 μSv/h, a red message
«radiation background dangerous» appears.
17. Indicators of changes in the background radiation:
-
one red arrow pointing upwards appears if background radiation higher than
30% of the average value is detected;
-
one green arrow pointing downwards appears if background radiation lower
than 30% of the average value is detected;
-
two red arrows pointing upwards appear when the background radiation is
significantly higher;
-
two green arrows pointing downwards appear when the background
radiation is significantly lower.
18. Preset background radiation threshold.
19-20. Bar graphs showing last minute radioactivity data from the
left and right detectors correspondingly. The graphs are constantly moving
towards the center, the size of the bar representing the level of the background
radiation. The bars can be green, yellow or red depending on how seriously
the preset background radiation threshold is exceeded.
21-22. Indicator of radioactive particle detection for the left and
right detector correspondingly. If there are many particles, the indicator is
red, if there are only a few, the indicator is yellow.
