How to Change Display Mode

Any display mode of KIND-pro can be set by the PC software. The PC
software runs on Windows7, Windows8.X, Windows10. An USB cablewith mini-B terminal connects KIND-pro and PC.

Additional Functions
1. DATA LOGGER

Connecting KIND-pro to PC, log data of radiation dose rate is transferredfor PC. Without manual input, time sequential results in CSV format isavailable in the connected PC.
For example, you can associate the logged results and the location
information then plot the values on a map. This facilitates curriculums
involving ICT and radiation education.

2. SIMPLE CALIBRATIONThe kit of "SIMPLE CALIBRATION"'Simple Calibration' enables to check that the indicated values ofKIND-pro are not too much different from 1 cm dose equivalent rate. But,
it is not the same as the official calibration (e.g. JCSS and JIS).
It facilitates a new concept of calibration for radiation education. To run'Simple Calibration', the kit of 'Simple Calibration' needs to be prepared.
