Dose screen #1 shows the display format prior to a dose measurement. The group name displayed is the
name of the previously selected group. The
ON/OFF status column indicates which diodes for that group
are activated (ON). To make a dose measurement, a group must be selected and at least one channel of
that group must be calibrated and activated (see SELECT - GROUP).
To begin a dose measurement, press the ENTER key. The message “PLEASE WAIT” will be
displayed while the unit zeroes the channel signals. After the channels are zeroed, the VeriDose
V beeps and dose screen #2 will be displayed. If a channel is not zeroed correctly, "ZERO ERR"
will be displayed to the right of the appropriate channel.

Dose screen #2 shows the display format during a dose measurement. When the signal from the active
diode(s) indicates the beginning of an exposure, the VeriDose V will start the exposure timer and continue
to acquire data.
The cumulative dose for each channel is displayed as the exposure is occurring. Channels that have
been disabled will indicate “OFF” to the right of the appropriate channel. Any channels that exceed the
dose set-point of an active alarm will flash (see MEASURE - ALARMS).
Pressing the DONE soft-key will conclude the measurement and stop the exposure timer. The
accumulated dose and "PRESS ANY KEY TO CONTINUE MESSAGE" will be displayed. Pressing the
ABORT soft-key will display a message box that allows the user to continue the exposure by pressing NO
or return to the MENU display by pressing YES.
If VeriDose V is in A-PRINT (auto-print) mode the message "PREPARING REPORT...PLEASE WAIT” will
appear as the selected report is printed after each exposure (see SETUP - PRINTER).

Rate screen #1 shows the display format prior to a rate measurement. The group name displayed is the
name of the previously selected group. The ON/OFF status column indicates which diodes for that group
are activated (ON). To make a rate measurement, a group must be selected and at least one channel of
that group must be calibrated and activated (see SELECT - GROUP).
