1 Introduction
The Rad-DX is a security and inspection system that detects emissions from radioactive material.
The Rad-DX system can operate as a stand-alone detector or as part of a larger rad-DX network
monitoring a building or facility.
2 System Components
There are several configurations available for a Rad-DX system. Four styles are available: black
with LCD, black without LCD, white with LCD, and white without LCD.
Figure 1: Rad-DX Versions - black and white, LCD and non-LCD
6/12/2012, Rad-DX Manual Version 2.0 Page 4
Other hardware components included with each Rad-DX include:
Mounting Bracket
USB Cable
Wire Nuts and Mounting Screws
“Pigtail” Wire Harness
Power Cable (black or white depending on color of Rad-DX)
Table 1: Additional Rad-DX Hardware
6/12/2012, Rad-DX Manual Version 2.0 Page 5
3 Networking Options Overview
Your Rad-DX can operate in a variety of configurations. Each Rad-DX unit can function as a
stand-alone unit or form part of a radiation detector network with other Rad-DX units.
Configuration options are:
Stand-Alone Operation: The Rad-DX can be controlled and monitored via the touch-screen
LCD on the unit.
D-tect Cloud Network: The D-tect Cloud Network is the easiest method to control and monitor
a network of Rad-DX detectors. It also allows the detectors to be monitored via smartphone,
tablet, or PC. Setting up your Rad-DX unit within the Cloud Network will require a PC with an
internet connection. All information sent over the Cloud is SSL encrypted.
DX Network Assistant Appliance: Our Rad-DX Assistant appliance allows a RAD-DX
network to operate behind a firewall that blocks access to the internet. The DX Network
Assistant is a computer pre-loaded with all the software needed to control and monitor a network
of Rad-DX detectors. Installation of the network is quick and very easy. Locate the DX Network
Assistant anywhere in your facility.

4 Monitoring and Controlling the DX Using the LCD Screen
The Rad-DX can operate in a stand-alone mode with information displayed on the LCD display.
Options for the Rad-DX, such as display types and radiation units, can be set up by the following
process:
1. Connect the Rad-DX device to a power source, either with the A/C plug or wiring it directly
to the junction box (see Physical Installation, Section 6.1)
2. The following screen will appear on the LCD screen as the Rad-DX boots.
3. The Dose Rate Screen will appear on the LCD screen after loading is complete.
4. The red lines indicate the touch zone areas of the screen types below.
o Touching the total dose location will reset the total dose to zero.
o To change the time frame on the Bar Graph and Line Graph screens, touch the time
period to toggle between 1 minute, 6 minute, and 30 minute time frames.
o To change the units on the screen, touch the unit text. The units will automatically use
metric prefixes (nano, micro…) depending on the currently measured dose rate.
5. To toggle through the different screens, touch anywhere else on the screen.

5 Monitoring and Controlling the Rad-DX in a Network Using the
DX Dashboard
The DX Dashboard software is used to monitor and control a Rad-DX network. It runs on either
the D-tect Cloud server or the DX Network Assistant (if you've installed it at your facility).
Using the DX Dashboard, you can access your Rad-DX network using any web-enabled device
(smartphones, tablets, PCs). You will be asked for your user name and password to allow access
to your network (see Section 6.2).
5.1 Signing In
If your network is on the D-tect Cloud Network, go to https://dx.dtectsystems.com on your smart
device or computer’s internet browser and enter your user name and password. If your network is
local, go to the URL of your DX Network Assistant and enter your user name and password.

5.2 Home Screen
When you open the DX Dashboard on a PC, smartphone, or tablet and log in, the Home screen
will be the first displayed. The Home screen will show a map or a blueprint and where the Rad-
DX units are located. (See Section 5.2.2 to upload a map or blueprint)
Figure 4: Application Home Screen with one alarming device icon and five normal device icons
During normal operation, each Rad-DX device in the network will appear as a small blue button.
For the real-time dose rate measurement and device settings, click the button for the detector you
want to see. A grey device window will pop up containing information about the unit. To access
a graph of the current detection values, click on the white Radiation Level Graph button at the
bottom left of the screen (see Section 5.3). To change the settings on the device, click the white
gear Device Configuration button (see Section 5.4) at the bottom right of the screen (see Figure
5). To see a summary of all detectors, click the button found in the top left (see Figure

6 Installation and Set-up of your Rad-DX
6.1 Physical Installation
The Rad-DX is designed to be either wired and mounted to an electrical junction box or attached
to a wall in close proximity to an outlet.
6.1.1 Junction Box Method
Mounting a Rad-DX unit directly to a junction box includes the following steps. Note that an
electrician should complete the installation for quality of the installation and safety of the
installer.
1. Connect the black wire from the “pigtail” wire harness to the black wire in the junction box. Connect
the white wire from the wire harness to the white wire in the junction box.
2. Plug the wire harness into the back of the Rad-DX unit.
3. Mount the Rad-DX wall bracket onto the junction box using the screws included. If a non-standard
junction box is being used, connect the wall bracket to the wall with drywall anchors or wood screws.
4. Press the Rad-DX completely onto the wall bracket and make sure it is secure. It will snap into place.
The Rad-DX can be removed from the bracket by lifting the top tab with a flathead screwdriver.
Figure 17: Junction Box Mounting Method
6/12/2012, Rad-DX Manual Version 2.0 Page 24
6.1.2 Plug-In Wall Mount Method
To power a Rad-DX unit with A/C power without connection to a junction box, follow these
steps:
1. Mount the Rad-DX wall bracket to the wall using drywall anchors or wood screws.
2. Press the Rad-DX completely onto the wall bracket and make sure it is secure.
3. Connect the A/C power cord to the Rad-DX. Then plug this cord into a nearby outlet.
4. Note: the Plug-In Wall Method is meant for indoor installation: the IP65 rating does not apply to this
method.

6. Patent and Software Provisions
D-tect Systems will defend at its own expense, any suit brought against you to the extent that it is based
on a claim that the Products infringe a United States patent. D-tect Systems will pay those costs and
damages finally awarded against you in any such suit which is attributable to any such claim. The
defense and payments by D-tect Systems are conditioned on the following: (a) that you will notify D-tect
Systems promptly in writing any notice of the claim; and (b) that D-tect Systems will have sole control of
the defense of the suit and all negotiations for its settlement or compromise; and (c) should the Products
become, or in D-tect System’s opinion be likely to become, the subject of a claim of infringement of a
United States patent, that you will permit D-tect Systems, at its option and expense, either: to procure for
you the right to continue using the Products or parts; to replace or modify them so that they become non-
infringing; or to grant you a credit for such Products or parts as depreciated and accept their return. The
depreciation will be an equal amount per year over the lifetime of the Products, accessories, battery or
parts as established by D-tect Systems.
D-tect Systems will have no liability to you with respect to any claim of patent infringement which is
based upon the combination of the Products or parts furnished under this limited warranty with software,
apparatus or devices not furnished by D-tect Systems. D-tect Systems will have no liability for the use of
ancillary or peripheral equipment or software not furnished by D-tect Systems which is attached to or
used in connection with the Products. The foregoing states the entire liability of D-tect Systems with
respect to infringement of patents by the Products, accessories, batteries or any parts of them.
