instaLink™ USB:
The instaLink USB allows workstations connected to the
internet to transmit dose data to Mirion’s secure servers.
For the instaLink USB to work it must be connected
to the workstation at all times and the instaLink USB
software must be installed on the workstation. The
software has a small footprint of less than 1Mb.

REQUIREMENTS / FUNCTIONALITY OF SOFTWARE:
•Internet Connectivity
•Runs on Window XP, Vista, and 7
•Access to *.instadose.com / port 443
•During installation, the application will be added to the
StartUp menu – the application will launch when the
workstation boots up
•The application window does not need to be open for a
device to be read
•If the workstation is hibernating (sleeping) communication
with instadose 2 dosimeters will not occur
INSTALLATION STEPS
The instaLink USB software will work on Windows XP, Vista, and
7, Windows 8 is currently unavailable.
NOTE: DO NOT plug in the instaLink USB until after the software
has been installed.
To install the instaLink USB software onto workstations you must
have administration privileges and follow the steps below.
•Go to www.instadose.com and login with the given
username and password
•[Click] Download software under the Manage section of
the home screen
•[Click] download instaLink USB software and follow the
instructions.
instaLink™ Hotspot Station:
The instaLink hotspot station securely transmits
dose data to Mirion’s server. The station comes with
a power cord and mounting brackets. The instaLink
hotspot station can be connected to your network
by either Ethernet or WiFi. The instaLink comes
with congurable Wi/Ethernet options: WPA, SID,
Proxies, etc.
KEY FEATURES:
•Software comes preloaded and is designed to be
functional upon arrival at the customer site
•instaLink can be plugged directly into a network – Once
connected it will attempt to connect to instadose web
service

MIRION&PROPRIETARY&INFORMATION
Hardware Features:
•Bluetoothlow energy radio
•Built-in antenna
Certifications:
•Bluetoothwireless technology version 4.0
•CE and FCC
DISCOVERY / CONFIGURATION APPLICATION:
Install the instaLink discovery conguration software to
scan and detect instaLink hotspots connected to the
network. IT departments can congure network settings
and unique identiers for each hotspot.
INSTALLATION STEPS
•Plug a instaLink hotspot into your hardwired network.
•Install and run the discovery application software. They
software will identify each instLkink hotspot connected
to the network. The following options are congurable:
•WiFi – sid and access credentials (username /
Password)
•Proxy / Network security settings
•Unique instaLink Identier (Name) to assist in data
collection statistics
Bluetooth® Smart Dosimeter:
The instadose 2 dosimeter utilizes BluetoothLow Energy (BLE)
Technology to transmit dose data to a variety of devices. A
facility can select from:
•iPhones or iPads with the instadose app installed
•PCs with BLE or with the instaLink-USB connected
•instaLink Hotspot Station
DATA TRANSFERS:
Bluetooth low energy technology supports very short data
packets (8 octet minimum up to 27 octets maximum) that
are transferred at 1 Mbps. All connections use advanced
sniff-sub rating to achieve ultra low duty cycles.
FREQUENCY HOPPING:
Bluetooth low energy technology uses the adaptive
frequency hopping common to all versions of Bluetooth
technology to minimize interference from other
technologies in the 2.4 GHz ISM Band. Efcient multi-path
benets increase the link budgets and range.
STRONG SECURITY:
Full AES-128 encryption using CCM to provide strong
encryption and authentication of data packets.
TOPOLOGY:
Bluetooth low energy technology uses a 32 bit access
address on every packet for each slave. The technology is
optimized for one-to-one connections while allowing one-
to-many connections using a star topology.
A new Bluetooth Smart feature is the “advertising”
functionality. The instadose 2 dosimeter (acting as a slave)
can in this way announce that it has dose readings to
transmit to the master (iPhone, iPad, instaLink USB or
instaLink).
Figure 4 shows how the instadose 2 dosimeter communicates
reads.
The instadose 2 dosimeter periodically sends messages
and will always be a slave once the connection is
established. An ipad, iPhone, or instaLink product is ready
to receive an advertisement message and a connection
request. The ipad, iPhone, or instaLink product will always
be a master once the connection is established.
