Operation

Customization 3

The Model 35040 Therapy Dosimeter displays the timer intervals in the same order they are entered. That is, it does not sort the timer interval settings. The UP arrow key displays the timer interval settings in an increasing interval number order (e.g., Interval 1, Interval 2 Interval 20), while the DOWN arrow key presents the timer interval settings in a decreasing order. The instrument automatically skips any settings that have a value of zero (0).

3.10.11 Bias Settings

To customize the bias voltage settings for your Model 35040 Therapy Dosimeter, select Bias Settings. Figure 3-39 shows the Bias Settings that contains 11 bias setting fields, general editing information, and DOWNLOAD and CANCEL buttons.

Figure 3-39. The Bias Settings Form

Select a field by clicking on it with the mouse. Enter a bias voltage setting between -500 and +500 V. If you require zero (0) volts, you must enter 0 as a value. Blank settings are skipped in the instrument – they are NOT interpreted as zero. When you select DOWNLOAD, the Customization software sends the bias settings to the instrument. Select CANCEL to discard any change. Not all fields must have an entry; the Model 35040 Therapy Dosimeter ignores blank fields. Bias settings may be entered in any order and may be repeated.

NOTE

When a Bias Setting has been edited, its text box background color will change from ‘white’ to ‘yellow’. Permanent storage in the Dosimeter’s memory is made only after depressing the DOWNLOAD button.
