USING THE CRADLE
INTRODUCTION
Figure 37. The cradle
The cradle is a dock station that lets you connect a dosimeter to a computer for data read out as well as
dosimeter options writing into the dosimeter.
GETTING STARTED
NOTE Do not connect the cradle to the computer unless dose viewer/dose manager and the cradle
driver are installed on the computer.
1. Start the dose manager application.
2. Connect a cradle to your computer’s USB port.
3. Put a dosimeter in the cradle.
Within a few seconds, dose manager will detect the dosimeter. This is indicated at the top of the dose manager
window by a note “Connected to dosimeter 100001158”, where dosimeter 100001158 is an example of a
dosimeter ID.
Dose manager will start loading the dosimeter dose history. This may take up to a few minutes. You can follow
the progress on the progress bar at the bottom of the dose manager window.
