8.0 Use of Optional Accessories
8.1 Apollo Handset
The Apollo Wireless Handset has been designed to permit
operation of the Apollo system without the need to have a
physical cable between the OmniProbe and analyzer unit. The
Apollo Handset processes the same count rate information as
that processed within the analyzer. The handset contains all the
necessary electronics to power the OmniProbe and operate for up
to four hours continuously. The system has been designed such that
the system may be operated between cabled and optionally non-
cabled modes interchangeable. More information of setting up the
Apollo Handset is given in Sections 1.2 and 2.4.
In addition to operation via Bluetooth
Apollo Handset can also communicate with the analyzer via USB.
The micro-USB cable can be inserted into the base of the Apollo
Handset for the purposes of charging or to operate the probe
communications with the PC via USB rather than Bluetooth.

8.2 Apollo Charging Dock and Plug-In Charger
When the system is not in use, the Apollo Handset can be charged
via the supplied handset charging dock. The handset may be
placed into the dock with the keypad facing the front so that the
micro-USB port on the base of the handset engages with the
equivalent connector on the dock. The charging dock USB plug may
be placed in one of the available USB ports located on the bottom
of the analyzer PC unit.
A wall-mounted charger is also supplied for charging the battery
of the Apollo Handset if the charging dock is unavailable. If an
Apollo wireless handset becomes fully discharged, the approximate
charge times to achieve a fully charged battery are approximately
four (4) hours if charged via the USB port on the control PC or
two (2) hours if charged via the Apollo handset charging dock
or plug-in charger.
WARNING! Only the supplied charging devices should be used to
charge the battery of the Apollo Handset. THIRD PARTY-SUPPLIED
CHARGERS MUST NOT BE USED.

To ensure that all system components are neatly and securely
stored, Care Wise offers a sturdy wheeled C-Trak

quick-release bracket. An accessory tray with foam insert is
used to store the probes, check sources and holders; an optional
shelf may be used to mount a printer if required.
IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTE: The system cart must only
be manoeuvred using the rear-mounted handset and not
pushed from other points in the system. The positions of
the accessory tray and shelf (if fitted) are fixed and must
not be modified. When the cart is in position, all four
wheel brakes must be engaged.
