Spartan 730/730IS Dosimeter Manual

Getting Started

If using the Spartan Model 730IS, read and become familiar with the safe use as
outlined in Appendix D before using the dosimeter in a hazardous environment.
G4 LD Utility (G4) software enhances the features, flexibility, and ease-of-use of
Larson Davis instruments. Use it to set up, calibrate, and remotely operate the
Spartan dosimeter. Additionally, you can use G4 to download, chart, and analyze
measurement data files, print and share a custom report, and export data to
third-party software for post-processing and analysis.
This process also works well if you want to update a currently installed version of
G4.
Step 1. In your browser, navigate to the Larson Davis.com Spartan Dosimeter
Product page.
Step 2. On the Dosimeters Support page, select the Spartan 730.
Step 3. On the Spartan Model 730 Support page, click on the G4 LD Utility link.
Step 4. On the G4 LD Utility Software Support page, click the link for the full
installer. The file downloads to your PC in ZIP format.
Step 5. When the download is complete, extract and install the upgrade. G4
creates a shortcut icon
in your Start Menu.
