Setup - Dosimeter Types
NOTE: Setup Dosimeter Types before you configure Batches.
DoseControl software requires you to setup the type(s) of dosimeters (B3, FWT-60, CTA, or PMMA/Perspex) will be used in the system.
Setup a new Dosimeter Type
1 Enter a Dosimeter Identifier (name) and the manufacturer.
2 Select a measurement Spectral Bandwidth (SBW).
• Use option “1 small aperture / fiber” SBW for radiochromic film (B3, FWT) dosimeters.
• Use option “3 2nm Slit” SBW for Perspex or CTA dosimeters.
• Use option “4 1nm slit” for GAFCHROMIC dosimeters
3 Enter a comment, if desired.
4 Use the checkbox to make a dosimeter type active or inactive.
5 “Uses Micrometer”: Select the “Uses Micrometer” checkbox if you are using the GEX supplied Laser Micrometer (GEX Product #P4350) hardware with your Evolution spectrophotometer. (PMMA dosimeters only.)
6 “Edit Thickness”: This permission allows the user to manually edit a thickness value on the measurement screen. The user must be assigned the ‘Edit Thickness’ permission by the Application Admin – this feature can be controlled by individual user permission – See DoseControl Software - User Access, Roles and Permissions).
Do not select the “Edit Thickness” checkbox if you are using B3 dosimeters.
USE CASE:
‘Edit Thickness’ feature is useful when dealing with FWT film dosimeters where the actual measured thickness is different than the stated average.
