6/12/2012, Rad-DX Manual Version 2.0 Page 3 1 Introduction The Rad-DX is a security and inspection system that detects emissions from radioactive material. The Rad-DX system can operate as a stand-alone detector or as part of a larger rad-DX network monitoring a building or facility. 2 System Components There are several configurations available for a Rad-DX system. Four styles are available: black with LCD, black without LCD, white with LCD, and white without LCD. Figure 1: Rad-DX Versions - black and white, LCD and non-LCD
6/12/2012, Rad-DX Manual Version 2.0 Page 4 Other hardware components included with each Rad-DX include: Mounting Bracket USB Cable Wire Nuts and Mounting Screws “Pigtail” Wire Harness Power Cable (black or white depending on color of Rad-DX) Table 1: Additional Rad-DX Hardware
6/12/2012, Rad-DX Manual Version 2.0 Page 5 3 Networking Options Overview Your Rad-DX can operate in a variety of configurations. Each Rad-DX unit can function as a stand-alone unit or form part of a radiation detector network with other Rad-DX units. Configuration options are: Stand-Alone Operation: The Rad-DX can be controlled and monitored via the touch-screen LCD on the unit. D-tect Cloud Network: The D-tect Cloud Network is the easiest method to control and monitor a network of Rad-DX detectors. It also allows the detectors to be monitored via smartphone, tablet, or PC. Setting up your Rad-DX unit within the Cloud Network will require a PC with an internet connection. All information sent over the Cloud is SSL encrypted. DX Network Assistant Appliance: Our Rad-DX Assistant appliance allows a RAD-DX network to operate behind a firewall that blocks access to the internet. The DX Network Assistant is a computer pre-loaded with all the software needed to control and monitor a network of Rad-DX detectors. Installation of the network is quick and very easy. Locate the DX Network Assistant anywhere in your facility.

6/12/2012, Rad-DX Manual Version 2.0 Page 7 4 Monitoring and Controlling the DX Using the LCD Screen The Rad-DX can operate in a stand-alone mode with information displayed on the LCD display. Options for the Rad-DX, such as display types and radiation units, can be set up by the following process: 1. Connect the Rad-DX device to a power source, either with the A/C plug or wiring it directly to the junction box (see Physical Installation, Section 6.1) 2. The following screen will appear on the LCD screen as the Rad-DX boots. 3. The Dose Rate Screen will appear on the LCD screen after loading is complete. 4. The red lines indicate the touch zone areas of the screen types below. o Touching the total dose location will reset the total dose to zero. o To change the time frame on the Bar Graph and Line Graph screens, touch the time period to toggle between 1 minute, 6 minute, and 30 minute time frames. o To change the units on the screen, touch the unit text. The units will automatically use metric prefixes (nano, micro…) depending on the currently measured dose rate. 5. To toggle through the different screens, touch anywhere else on the screen.

6/12/2012, Rad-DX Manual Version 2.0 Page 9 5 Monitoring and Controlling the Rad-DX in a Network Using the DX Dashboard The DX Dashboard software is used to monitor and control a Rad-DX network. It runs on either the D-tect Cloud server or the DX Network Assistant (if you've installed it at your facility). Using the DX Dashboard, you can access your Rad-DX network using any web-enabled device (smartphones, tablets, PCs). You will be asked for your user name and password to allow access to your network (see Section 6.2). 5.1 Signing In If your network is on the D-tect Cloud Network, go to https://dx.dtectsystems.com on your smart device or computer’s internet browser and enter your user name and password. If your network is local, go to the URL of your DX Network Assistant and enter your user name and password. Figure 3: Rad-DX Sign-in Screen
6/12/2012, Rad-DX Manual Version 2.0 Page 10 5.2 Home Screen When you open the DX Dashboard on a PC, smartphone, or tablet and log in, the Home screen will be the first displayed. The Home screen will show a map or a blueprint and where the Rad-DX units are located. (See Section 5.2.2 to upload a map or blueprint) Figure 4: Application Home Screen with one alarming device icon and five normal device icons During normal operation, each Rad-DX device in the network will appear as a small blue button. For the real-time dose rate measurement and device settings, click the button for the detector you want to see. A grey device window will pop up containing information about the unit. To access a graph of the current detection values, click on the white Radiation Level Graph button at the bottom left of the screen (see Section 5.3). To change the settings on the device, click the white gear Device Configuration button (see Section 5.4) at the bottom right of the screen (see Figure 5). To see a summary of all detectors, click the button found in the top left (see Figure 6).

6/12/2012, Rad-DX Manual Version 2.0 Page 23 6 Installation and Set-up of your Rad-DX 6.1 Physical Installation The Rad-DX is designed to be either wired and mounted to an electrical junction box or attached to a wall in close proximity to an outlet. 6.1.1 Junction Box Method Mounting a Rad-DX unit directly to a junction box includes the following steps. Note that an electrician should complete the installation for quality of the installation and safety of the installer. 1. Connect the black wire from the “pigtail” wire harness to the black wire in the junction box. Connect the white wire from the wire harness to the white wire in the junction box. 2. Plug the wire harness into the back of the Rad-DX unit. 3. Mount the Rad-DX wall bracket onto the junction box using the screws included. If a non-standard junction box is being used, connect the wall bracket to the wall with drywall anchors or wood screws. 4. Press the Rad-DX completely onto the wall bracket and make sure it is secure. It will snap into place. The Rad-DX can be removed from the bracket by lifting the top tab with a flathead screwdriver. Figure 17: Junction Box Mounting Method
6/12/2012, Rad-DX Manual Version 2.0 Page 24 6.1.2 Plug-In Wall Mount Method To power a Rad-DX unit with A/C power without connection to a junction box, follow these steps: 1. Mount the Rad-DX wall bracket to the wall using drywall anchors or wood screws. 2. Press the Rad-DX completely onto the wall bracket and make sure it is secure. 3. Connect the A/C power cord to the Rad-DX. Then plug this cord into a nearby outlet. 4. Note: the Plug-In Wall Method is meant for indoor installation: the IP65 rating does not apply to this method.
