Typically, the life of the battery is approximately 60+ hours (see Appendix A for specific
specifications). The dosimeter can be charged at any time by using your EdgeDock.
There are two battery identifiers on the dosimeter which are the battery indicator icon and the
battery power clock (see Figure 4-3).
Checking battery power
1. The battery indicator icon (located at the top right of your screen) gives an approximation of
battery life and is always present.
If the battery indicator is half shaded, this illustrates you have approximately 30 hours of
battery life remaining.
If lobat appears, less than 8 hours of run time is available.
2. Additionally, there is a battery time remaining measurement which identifies the number of
hours and minutes remaining on the dosimeter.
3. To view, press the up/down arrows . This will navigate your through the views of the
dosimeter.
NOTE: The battery time remaining measurement can be disabled from the view of the
meter. See Chapter 3 for explanation on changing the display.
