The Edge general settings are used to setup the instrument with basic parameters. The eg4 model
features two virtual dosimeters in one with two customized, user-defined settings. Please refer to
the Edge dosimeter settings table below for an explanation of setup details.
1. Click on the Dosimeter tab from the Edge’s Instrument Configuration panel (see 1). To change
the dosimeter settings, follow one (or all) of the selection options below.
Click on the checkbox to enable the dosimeter (LED) heartbeat, Dose indicator LED,
and/or the Meter 1/Meter 2 Threshold settings.
Click in the circular button to select the response time (fast or slow), peak weighting (C or
Z), and/or RMS Weighting (A or C).
To set the numeric fields either type in a value or use the arrows to enter appropriate
values for the Meter1/Meter 2 settings (threshold, upper limit, exchange rate, criterion level,
and RMS weighting).
2. When Meter 1 and Meter 2 settings are “enabled”, this will log (for eg4 model only) two different
setups simultaneously. Typically, users will set the meter 1 and meter 2 with different regulatory
or local standards (such as EU directive and OSHA).
3. To set the dosimeter settings, save and send to the Edge (for more details see “Saving and
sending configurations).
