Page 9: Clamp Removal And Installation
CLAMP INSTALLATION AND REMOVAL A removable clamp is provided to the indicator for wearing at the waist belt. The clamp may be removed with the aid of a screw driver, as shown in fig.1a. The clamp is installed according to fig. 1б. By an individual order the indicator may be provided with a protecting housing made of synthetic cloth , also providing possibility of wearing at the waist belt. - Page 10 1 (MODE) – a push button for : -switching on the device; -selection of operation modes; -recalibration by the background level -change of parameters in the mode of settings 2 (LIGHT) – a push button for: -switching illumination; -switching communication with the PC; - change of parameters in the mode of settings -switching off the device...

Page 13: Searching Mode. Detection And Localization Of Sources Of Gamma And/Or Neutron Radiation
The processor counts the value of the gamma channel operation threshold Operation threshold = N + n * N – average speed of counting impulses over the calibration time n – number of mean square deviations ( n factor of the gamma channel). n factor changes the value of the operation threshold (the minimum detection level), the less n factor, the less threshold value is and the higher indicator sensitivity is. - Page 14 In this mode the indicator operation is carried out to the following thresholds: 1) The fixed threshold by MED, set up in the communication mode with the PC by the user- administrator; When the installed threshold is exceeded by MED the indicator sends light, sound and/or vibrating signals.

Page 15: Measuring Mode Of Power Ambient Equivalent Gamma Radiation Dose
It should be borne in mind that in case of false operations the signals (light, sound and/or vibrating) are not systematic, and therefore, they differ from detection signals in case of II availability, with their frequency being constant and increasing as far as approaching to II. In case of II detection or if any information is available about possible II availability, II localization is started. -

Subsequent pressings of the LIGHT push button reduce the preset value of n factor with pitch 0,1. Subsequent pressings of the MODE push button increase the preset value of n factor with pitch 0,1. If the push buttons are kept pressed the values are reduced or increased accelerated with the same pitch. After setting the required n-factor of the gamma channel after expiry of approximately 6 s after the last pressing the push button the indicator will automatically be shifted to the calibration mode. -

For changing the value of the threshold of the neutrons count one should shortly press LIGHT push button during subsequent four seconds. The preset threshold value will blink what shows its possible change. If the LIGHT button was not pressed during the said time interval, the indicator automatically returns to the working mode. -
