General Description<br />

Windows-Based Software<br />

“Edit” will display and allow editing of Instrument and Detector<br />

parameters. The instrument parameters consist of Instrument RDA,<br />

RDA Confidence Level, Sigma Factor, Overall Efficiency,<br />

Maximum Count Time, and Alarm Hold Time. The detector<br />

parameters include High Voltage, Efficiency, Shield Factor, Sigma<br />

Factor, and Max RDA. After editing, the operator can either save the<br />

parameters and exit or quit without a save. If the parameters are<br />

saved they are saved to both the disk and the portal.<br />

Disk Edit<br />

At the main menu “Disk Edit” is selected when instrument and/or detector<br />

parameters are to be edited. A submenu consisting of “<strong>PM</strong>7, System, and<br />

Quit” is presented.<br />

c. <strong>PM</strong>-7<br />

Parameters for up to 15 different portals can be edited in this<br />

routine. When the routine is first invoked, the operator will be<br />

prompted to enter the monitor number. The parameters are the<br />

same as those described in “Edit” , above. The difference is that the<br />

program is not connected to a portal while in this routine so the<br />

parameters are only saved to disk. Also, multiple portal parameters<br />

can only be edited from this menu selection.<br />

d. System<br />

Access to this routine can only be gained if the<br />

SYSTEMPASSWORD has been correctly entered. Initially, both the<br />

main password and the system password are set to “Eberline”. Both<br />

can be edited from within this routine.<br />

When the system password is different from the main password, two<br />

levels of security exist.<br />

The screen that is presented when this routine is accessed is<br />

separated into three regions. The first region displays headings of<br />

“Password” and “System Password”. If either is to be edited, the<br />

operator must scroll to the desired field and press > F1. The operator<br />

then will be prompted for the current password. After correctly<br />

entering the current password, the operator must press > F1 again<br />

and then enter the new password. The new password is displayed as<br />

it is entered during this session for verification.<br />

The second region of the screen is titled “Communications”. From<br />

this region the active COM port for the computer can be toggled<br />

between 1 and 2. The serial communications protocol (9600 baud,<br />
