This instrument is a general purpose, digital ratemeter with a built-in scaler that provides timed counts over a user specified period. The instrument additionally includes an internally housed energy compensated GM tube with a range up to 10 R/hr. A front-panel switch allows the user to select between the internal GM detector and an external detector of choice connected via the cable. The LCD presents readings in a four-digit moving decimal format together with one of a wide range of available units of measure and is accompanied by several operational and alert icons. The LCD backlight can be activated and remains lit for a user-adjustable interval. This instrument features adjustable alert and alarm setpoints for both the Ratemeter and Scaler modes. Front-panel controls include a rotary switch for selecting between Off, Ratemeter Mode, and Scaler Mode; separate switches for audio on/off, fast/slow response time, and detector selection; plus push-buttons for activating the LCD backlight and for either resetting the counts or acknowledging alarms.
The following parameters are adjusted for each detector by a removable switchboard. Once initial setup and calibration have been completed the switchboard can be removed without affecting normal operation of the instrument.
Logger and Calibrator Software is available for download on the Software & Firmware Downloads page.
