Using the PDM
Introduction
Figure 5.1
The PDM
The PDM is an active dose meter designed for maintenance-free usage
throughout its lifetime.
You can personalize the PDM’s appearance by attaching one of
the 8 inlays of different color, which are delivered together with the PDM
(see the PDM Quick Guide).
The PDM measures staff dose. The optimal usage for the PDM to measure
dose is to use it unshielded from any X-ray protection devices.
Getting started
Follow the instructions below to start using your PDM:
1
Make sure that the PDM’s power mode is set to section “Change PDM
options” on page 4-7.
2
Attach the PDM on your clothes using the metallic clip, which is located on
the back of the PDM, or the lanyard holder that is provided with the PDM.
