The dosimeters measure radiation and store measurements. When a dosimeter is in range of a Real-time Display,
measurements are transferred once per second via radio and are displayed as dose rate bars low to high dose rate:
green, yellow or red. You can also have the accumulated dose displayed next to the dose rate bar.
All measurements recorded while connected to a Real-time Display are saved in the display. Tap a dosimeter user
name on the display to access the measurements.
To view the measurements stored in the dosimeter, connect the dosimeter to a computer running Dose Viewer. Dose
Viewer can also be used for changing dosimeter settings, such as displayed name and annual dose limit.
COMPATIBILITY WITH THE i2 SYSTEM
Figure 2. The RaySafe i2 dosimeter (to the right) requires a cradle to connect to a computer.
The i2 dosimeter can be used with the i3 system. The RaySafe i2 dosimeter requires the i2 cradle for connection with
Dose Viewer and Dose Manager. The i2 dosimeter has, unlike the Real-time Dosimeter, no power-saving functions, no
advanced power modes and no replaceable battery.
The Real-time Dosimeter cannot be connected directly to Dose Manager. However, Dose Manager can get dose
history from the Real-time Display via network cable or a USB memory in the i3 system. Dose Manager can be used
with the i3 system in such way.
