Lost Connection Status. Once it has lost a connection, you can hide it from being
displayed in the main screen.

Hide Unconnected
In the event that you have lost a network connection or change the serial number of the area monitor
connected to the software, the Area Monitor Server will lose the connection to the previous serial number of
the area monitor and create a new area monitor in the software window. After a unit fails on the network, or
the network connection to the unit fails, it take approximately 5-10 seconds for the area monitor software to
register the lost connection. If you changed the serial number of the area monitor, the previous settings will
appear as an area monitor that has a lost connection. To remove the one listed with the older settings, go to
View > Hide Unconnected.
Calibration and Settings
The Calibration and Settings screen is used to
change the High Voltage, Threshold, Dead Time, Cal
Constant, IP Address, Alarms, Units, Serial Number,
and Communication settings.
You can access the Calibration and Settings Screen
two ways. For both, select the row in which the
area monitor is listed in the main window. An arrow
to the left side of the row will indicate you have
selected the correct unit.
1) Select View > Calibration and Settings
2) Right Click on the row and then click on
Calibration and Settings.
NOTE: Be sure to set your unit of measurement first. When changing units of measurement, if you have
already set the alarm levels, then the same numeric value will be assigned to the new unit of measurement.
For example, if the alarm level is set at 300 CPM (Counts Per Minute) and then the units of measurement are
changed to mR/hr, then the alarm setting will change to 300 mR/hr. The numeric value stays the same, but
the unit of measurement changes.
NOTE: If you change the unit of measurement, you will need to reset your
alarms with the current unit of measure.
