Readout: Values through 9999 are expressed in 1 to 4 digits. For higher values, a factor of 1000 will be indicated by displaying E. For example: 10,400 = 10.4E, 127,000 = 127E Page 6 RAM GENE-1 ERK / Operating Manual...
3.4.1. Enter threshold mode by pressing the RESET (LIGHT) push-button for two seconds. The reading will be zero, and later on the thr. LCDs will be displayed to indicate that the threshold setting mode is activated. RAM GENE-1 ERK/ Operating Manual Page 7...
Overflow alarm: If the displayed count rate is over the measuring range (42000 cps, 999000 cpm, 720 mR.h, 7200 µSv/h), the OFLO LCDs blinks on the display and an interrupted audible alarm is activated. To mute the audible alarm, press the SPEAKER push-button. Page 8 RAM GENE-1 ERK / Operating Manual...
The battery compartment is located at the back of the instrument. To replace the battery, slide out the battery compartment cover carefully. Use one 9-Volt alkaline battery; be sure to connect it with the right polarity. Figure 3 RAM GENE-1 Battery Compartment ...
3.7. Using Chargeable batteries The RAM GENE-1 has the capability to connect to an external power transformer which provides 9V DC 0.5A. Power. This input can also be used to charge chargeable batteries. In order to make your instrument compatible to using chargeable batteries, you need to solder a jumper into E1 holes.
