We recommend that you print a copy of the customization report (Print) as your first step in the
customization process. This report contains all of the customization values and thus serves as a guide for
returning to the original settings should an operator keyboard error occur during the process. Additionally,
print a copy of the customization report as the final step in the customization process. Use this final
report to verify the new customization parameter values, and then save it in a safe place for future
reference. Reports can also be generated and saved as text files. Refer to Section 3.10.7, FILE | SAVE
AS and FILE | PRINT.
3.10.5 Downloading
The Customization software sends (downloads) information through the RS-232 link to the Model 35040
Therapy Dosimeter. This action happens automatically after you confirm the changes that you make to
any parameter. After downloading, the instrument sends back the information it received. The
Customization software compares the reply to what it sent down in order to verify that the screen display
and instrument contents are the same. In some cases, the downloading process may last several
seconds.
3.10.6 Menu Items and Controls
Refer to Figure 3-33 for the Menu Items and Controls that are at the top of each Customization form. The
operation of the controls is the same for all forms.
