This window displays DER, pulse count rate and gamma
radiation intensity histogram, displaying pulses every 100 ms for the
last 25.6 s. Resolution of gamma pulse count rate display is 1 cps. A
unit of measurement is specified next to each value, according to
which the data is currently displayed. A figure in the upper left corner
of the histogram indicates its current unit of measurement (Figure 6).
To enable and disable the sounding of the pulse count rate,
hold down the ENTER button for at least 2 seconds. An
indicates that the pulse count rate sounding mode is on, and
indicates that it is off. A short press of the ENTER button when the
sounding of the pulse count rate is on recalibrates the sounding
frequency relative to the current pulse count rate, which makes it
easier to distinguish sound signals when the device approaches a
source of radiation and a switch of sounding from the mode of
continuous signal to a discrete periodic one.
