Mirion Technologies instadose Dosimeter User Manual

Revolutionizing your radiation
instadose
monitoring program with dose readings performed online.
Featuring
Instadose Dosimeter- Instant. Precise. Portable.
than a ash drive, this rugged dosimeter provides immediate dose readings by
using any internet enabled computer.
This easy-to-use device is the only accredited USB-compatible dosimeter that
enables you to measure your radiation dose at anytime you wish, as often as you
wish. Based upon patented direct ion storage technology, the instadose dosimeter
includes access to each user’s historical and current exposure readings. There is
no need to send dosimeters to a processing center, simplifying administration and
reducing costs.
Benets for your facility include:
• Pulse radiation response
• Unlimited reads
• Online badge reassignment
• Accredited in the United States, in the UK, and other countries
• NO badge collection
• NO battery replacements
• NO annual calibration
To open your device, hold the clip and turn 180 degrees to either side to extend the USB connector.
HOW THE DEVICE WORKS
This breakthrough technology provides radiation workers
with a precise measurement of radiation dose and
includes accurate long-term exposure tracking. A built-in
memory chip stores each user’s identity via an embedded
unique serial code that is assigned to the user.
Instadose dosimeters provide users with the exibility
to view radiation dose at any time from any computer
with internet access. Readings via a PC are enabled by a
USB compatible detector. Before use, each device must
be registered online at www.instadose.com. During the
registration process, the driver and client are installed on
the user’s computer and the device is initialized for use.
When a user wishes to obtain a reading he or she simply
logs-in to his or her account at www.instadose.com,
The accumulated dose stored on the device processes
through a proprietary algorithm. This fully automated
transfer of data minimizes the chance of human error
and misidentication. Once complete, a graphical
representation of the current dose displays on the screen.
The user can then [click] “View Cumulative Dose” to
receive cumulative dosage information.
Within your facility the instadose dosimeter can be
read up to a cumulative dose of 12 rem, for exposures
exceeding this limit the device would need to be sent in
for processing and reporting.
A variety of reports are available to view and download.
To generate a report, a user must rst select the start
and end periods. To further customize the report a user
can select a specic person, group or location. Once the
selection process is complete and “Run this report” is
[clicked] a new window will open with the results of the
report shown. Users can print or download reports into
excel, PDF, Power Point, RTF , or Fully Editable RTF les.
The site is available in serveral langauges including
English, French, Japanese, and Spanish.
SECURE ONLINE ACCOUNT MANAGEMENT WITH AMP
AMP (Account Management Program) is a revolutionary
solution to providing secure online account management.
It’s fast, simple, and free!
With AMP, account administrators can manage all the
elements of a radiation monitoring program online
anytime, from anywhere. From account administration to
managing individual wearers and devices, AMP provides
real time access to account details, device assignments,
reports, and all pertinent account information.
Account management features available with AMP
include:
• Device Registration
• Manage Accounts
• Manage Devices
• Manage Locations
• Manage Users
• Order and Payment History
• Audit Logs
Access to some of these areas is limited based on role
assignment, this is very important to keep in mind when
creating or editing users within your account.
The roles you can choose to assign and function
availability include:
Administrator: Full access to all functions on the site.
From placing orders, performing readings for devices,
running reports, creating/deactivating locations and
users, to registering and initializing devices.
Location Admin: Access to functions on the site are
limited to the assigned location. A Location Admin may
not create new locations. They can place orders, perform
readings and run reports for devices within that location,
edit or add users within the location, and register and
initialize devices for that location.
Group Admin: Access to functions on the site are limited
to the assigned group within a location. A Group Admin
may not create new locations or edit the location they
are assigned to. They can place orders, perform readings
and run reports for devices within that group, edit or add
users and register and initialize devices for the group
under the location.
Wearer: Limited access to functions on the site. A Wearer
can perform readings on devices assigned to them.
Reports will only contain their data. Wearers can also
update their e-mail, phone and password.
