Tube Recovery Time; Extend Battery Operating Time; Third Party Software Developers - GQ Electronics GMC-SE User Manual

Tube recovery time

After detecting high doses of radiation, each Geiger tube needs some time to recover (back
to normal). This may take a couple of minutes. This recovery time is depending on the level
of radiation just experienced and is also tube dependent. Turning the unit OFF and then
turning ON again after a couple of minutes will reduce the tubes recovery time.

Extend battery operating time

Turn on the Power Saving mode to extend the battery operating time. Turn off the speaker if
it is not necessary. If a fully charged battery run-out in less than 5 operating hours, then the
battery needs to be replaced. Use a standard 14500 (14 x 50.0 mm) 3.6V-3.7V Li battery
OR 14500 (14 x 50.0 mm) 3.6V-3.7V rechargeable Li-ion battery.
The GMC-SE will operate normally when a non-rechargeable battery is installed. Select the
battery type to non-rechargeable battery from the unit menu.
