Check if the correct language is already set for the display. If not, you

can change the language in the menu item "Display/Language".

Start with the setup of FIBERTRAC 31.
In the main menu point "Setup", the individual submenu points

should be selected one after the other and provided with the correct

parameters to ensure optimum adjustment of the measurement. The

procedure is described in the following.
Stick with the normal sequence of the menu items as closely as pos-

sible.
Setup
In this menu item you can adjust the FIBERTRAC 31 to the integrated

isotope in the source container.
For this purpose, check which isotope is integrated in the source

container. You can find this information on the type label of the source

container.

Through this selection, the sensitivity of the sensor is adapted

perfectly to the isotope. The normal reduction of the emitter activity is

hence considered through the radioactive decay.
The FIBERTRAC 31 requires this information of the automatic decay

compensation. This ensures an interference-free measurement over

the complete life time of the gamma emitter - an annual recalibration

is not necessary.
Enter the requested parameters via the appropriate keys, save your

settings with [OK] and jump to the next menu item with the [ESC] and

the [->] key.

Enter here, the respective application.
This menu item enables adaptation of the sensor to the requested ap-

plication. You can choose between the following applications: "Level",

"Point level" or "Summation Slave".
