7.3.4 Zero Adjustment
In sensitivity mode
Normal
, an automatic zero
adjustment is performed after each automati-
cally triggered measurement (auto-start/auto-stop
mode).
No zero adjustment is performed after having
manually started and stopped measurements and
the measured values are corrected with the val-
ues of the previous zero adjustment.
If a successful zero adjustment is not possible
after a measurement, a corresponding message
will be displayed and the subsequent measured
values are corrected with the values of the previ-
ous zero adjustment.
As an alternative, initiate the zero adjust-
ment manually by clicking the
Zeroing
button. Do not move the NOMEX multi-
meter during the zero adjustment.
You can also initiate the zero adjustment
during a running measurement. This,
however, will abort the measurement.
7.3.5 Readouts at End of
Measurement
After the termination of the measurement, the
measured values are stored. Storing a large num-
ber of measured values may take a few seconds.
During this period, the LED at the NOMEX multi-
meter and on the measuring window blinks blue
(refer to sections
5.1.1 "Status LED in the NOMEX
).
Upon completion of the measurement, the mea-
surement data will be displayed depending on the
selected application according to
.
In both sensitivity modes
High
and
Heavily Fil-
tered
, the current dose rate will be displayed dur-
ing the measurement.
After the measurement, the mean dose rate dis-
play can vary because of the reduced time reso-
lution of 0.5 seconds.
The measurement data to be displayed can be
selected on the
Displayed values
tab of the
Options
menu.
