Settings and Commands

Reset

Reset the timer and clear the spectrum recorded so far.

Analyze

Initiate the analysis of the spectrum before the preset recording duration elapsed.

Continue

Continue with the Easy ID spectrum acquisition after an analysis. Sometimes, the

preset duration was simply too short or the source is very weak, so extending the

duration gives additional trust in the result.

Save

Save the recorded spectrum even if nothing was identified.

Exit

Return to the superior screen.

3.3 Detect Mode

The Detect measuring mode is a tool to locate radiation sources by giving rapid visual and

audio feedback to the changing dose rate of incoming radiation.

Detect Mode makes heavy use of the radEAGLET-R's speaker. Make sure it is switched

on (see 5.5, p. 57).

The tool starts with measuring the background radiation (Fig. 25, p. 39).
