8.3.1.7. Audible alarm indications 

 

modifiable only in the satellite mode, with an LDM-101 or LDM 2000 and the 
appropriate software 

 

 

 
This parameter provides an indication of the ambient rate to the User by an audible 
signal, which is independent of the display. 
 

“ BEEP.0 ”

 : no audible signal for dose increments 

“ BEEP.1 ”

 : 1 beep every 10 mRem (100 

µ

Sv) 

“ BEEP.2 ”

 : 1 beep every 1 mRem (10 

µ

Sv) 

“ BEEP.3 ”

 : 1 beep every 0.1 mRem (1 

µ

Sv) 

“ BEEP.4 ”

: 1 beep every 8 pulses (1 beep / sec per approx. 26.7 mRem or 267

µ

Sv) 

“ BEEP.5 ”

: 1 beep every 4 pulses (1 beep / sec per approx. 13.3 mRem or 133

µ

Sv) 

8.3.1.8. “Emergency start-up” operating mode 

 

modifiable in both the satellite (with an LDM-101 or LDM 2000 and the appropriate 
software) and autonomous modes  

 

 

 

or 

 

 

 
The 

emergency start-up

 mode can be activated with this parameter.
