•CAL (G) appears while you are calibrating the Inspector Alert.
•SET (H) appears when you are setting the timer, the Alert
level, and the calibration factor, or working in the Utility
menu (the numeric display shows the setting you are
adjusting instead of the current radiation level).
•The current unit of measurement (I)--CPM, CPS, mR/hr or
µSv/hr--is displayed to the right of the numeric display.
The Switches
The Inspector Alert has two switches on the front, and one switch
and three buttons on the end panel. Each switch has three
settings, which are described below.
On/Off/Audio Switch (7)
Audio. The Inspector Alert is on, and it makes a clicking
sound for each radiation event detected.
On. The Inspector Alert is operating, but audio is off.
Off. The Inspector Alert is not operating.
Mode Switch (6)
mR/hr µSv/hr. The numeric display shows the current
radiation level in milliroentgens per hour from .001 to 100.
When SI units are used, it shows the current radiation level in
microseiverts per hour, from .01 to 1000.
CPM CPS. The display shows the current radiation level in
counts per minute from 0 to 350,000. When X1000 is
shown, multiply the numeric reading by 1000 to get the
complete reading. When SI units are used, the display shows
the current radiation level in counts per second from 0 to
5000.
Total/Timer. The display shows the accumulated total of
counts starting when the switch is turned to this position,
from 0 to 9,999,000. When X1000 is shown, multiply the
numeric reading by 1000 to get the complete reading.
