Operation
The NeutronRAE II has two modes: Normal Operating Mode
and Programming Mode. Normal Operating Mode is the
default; see Programming Mode, on page 20, for details on
entering and using Programming Mode.
Normal Operating Mode
In Normal Operating Mode, the NeutronRAE II detects gamma
and neutron radiation and accumulates gamma radiation dosage
data. In Normal Operating Mode, pressing the MODE button
sequentially steps the unit through the following functions:
NORM
Normal Operating Mode
CAL
Gamma background calibration (only in Search Mode)
PEAK
Maximum radiation levels detected since last cleared
MIN
Minimum radiation levels detected since last cleared
DOSE
Accumulated gamma radiation dosage since last cleared
TIME
Time, date, and time unit has been on
STAT
Detector status (battery voltage and internal temp.)
COMM
Open BlueTooth communication with computer
TEST
Self test (if Diagnostic Flag is set during start-up)
Each function remains active for 60 seconds before
automatically returning to the Normal Operating Mode.
Pressing the MODE button changes the selection from one
function to the next one in the sequence.
