Display LCD
analog/digital
with backlight
Analog 100 element bar graph 6.4 cm long. Bar
graph is divided into 5 major segments,
each labeled with the appropriate value
for the range of the instrument
Digital 2.5 digit display is followed by a
significant zero digit depending on the
operating range of the instrument. The
units of measurement are indicated on
the display at all times. Digits are 6.4 mm
(0.25 in) high. Low battery and freeze
indicators are also provided on the display
Modes Integrate mode Operates continuously 30 seconds after
the instrument has been turned on.
Integration is performed even if the
instrument is displaying in mR/h or R/h
Freeze mode Will place a tick mark on the bar graph
display to hold on the peak displayed
value. The unit will continue to read and
display current radiation values
