To make HVL determination using exposure measurements
Make sure that the NERO mAx is turned off. Plug one end of the NERO mAx’s detector cable into the
NERO mAx detector. Plug the other end of the detector cable into the NERO mAx’s detector connector.
No filter card is required for exposure or rate measurements. If using an external ion chamber, plug the
ion chamber’s BNC connector into the ion chamber signal input at the rear of the NERO mAx detector.
Plug the chamber’s bias plug (banana jack) into the bias output at the rear of the NERO mAx detector.
Position the ion chamber as needed. If using the NERO mAx’s internal ion chamber, position the NERO
mAx detector as needed.
WARNING
An electric shock hazard exists between the ion
chamber bias connector and ground.
If results are to be printed, plug the printer cable into the printer port at the rear of the NERO mAx then
plug the other end of the printer cable into the printer and turn the printer on (see Section 1.5--Printing).
Plug the AC adapter into the NERO mAx if needed (see Section 1.4--Battery Operation and Charging)
and turn the instrument on.
