Parameters MENU -- SYSTEM PARAMETERS MENU
This menu allows critical system operational parameters or data to be modified by an authorized manager. This
menu is password protected by the highest (manager) level password.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
The Dose Rate functions,
Set Unattenuated (High) Rate and Set Attenuated (Low) Rate
are the calibrated dose rates of the CS-137 source for the high and low attenuation settings.
The calibration date allows for real-time compensation for the radioactive decay of the Cs-137 source.
These parameters are initially set by to the exact dose rate measured at the badge irradiation position by traceable
probes and calibrated measurement equipment.
Set Unattenuated (High) Travel
- This function allows the manager to enter an unattenuated travel dose for the
source, in units of mSv.
Set Attenuated (Low) Travel Dose
- This function allows the manager to enter an attenuated travel dose for the
source, in units of mSv.
