Device Overview PORT 1 PORT 2 An overview of the front face of the RDM3 micromanometer is given in Figure 1.1. The front face includes: · Model This shows in the scan list, followed by the device serial number. OLED · OLED screen display screens: live or an average of 10 seconds pressure readings in RESOLUTION unit of Pascal or in H2O, and device information. Device is set to in H2O from the MODEL manufacturer. The Gamma App is required to switch measurement units to Pascals. BUTTON · Port 1 & 2 the manometer measures the pressure differences between these two ports. · Button control device to turn on and off, to toggle OLED screens and to manually set zeros. · Operation Information indicates button operations. OPERATIONAL INFORMATION 2 Figure 1.1 March 28, 2025 2. Basic Operation Basic operation of the RDM3 micromanometer is outlined in the following steps: 1. There should be two (2) new AA batteries in the device when you receive the micromanometer. The micromanometer should be in sleep mode. To start the micromanometer, press and hold the button (for more than 3 seconds) until OLED displays "Release to Start". Powering On" will then be displayed, followed by regulatory information. After this, it will show the "LIVE" Screen. "LIVE" screen readings are the average readings of one (1) second. See Section 3 "OLED Screen Overview" for screen interpretation." 2. Short pressing the button (for less than 2 seconds) toggles screens. There are three screen displays, they are in the order of: a) Live readings (average of one (1) second); b) Average readings (average of 10 seconds by default. This can be modified through app); and c) Device information (Name, MAC address, battery percentage and temperature). The screen toggles from (a) to (c), followed by a blank screen (to conserve battery power while using the phone display or logging data) and then back to (a) again. The OLED screen updates every second. 3. When you press and hold the button for more than 2 seconds, the OLED starts displaying instructions. You can follow the instructions on the OLED: Button Press Time Result Short (<2s) "Toggle Screens" Long (2~5s) "Release to Shut Down" Extra Long (>5s) "Release to Zero" When the OLED displays "Release to Shut Down" and you release the button, then the device will display "Shutting Down" and it starts the shut down process. The OLED will be off after 3 seconds and then the manometer will enter sleep mode. When the OLED shows "Release to Zero", it means if you release the button now, the manometer will display "Zeroing" and it stores(ii) the pressure reading at that point as the new "zero point"/offset. It will then go back to the display screen before this button operation. Make sure the device is perfectly still when zeroing. There are no further button options upon "Extra Long" button press. 4. To turn on the device again, follow Step "1)" above. 3 March 28, 2025 Notes: (i) If the manometer does not start when you press and hold the button for more than 3 seconds, you can try to: - Open the battery door and check if there are batteries inside. - If there are already batteries inside of the device, remove one of them for a few seconds then install it once again. This will cause the device to reset and start without any button press. If none of the previous try works, try to use two (2) new AA batteries. Follow the "Changing Battery" section. (ii) The "Zeroing" function stores the new offset value into flash memory, so it remembers the last offset value the next time the device boots up. 3. OLED Screen Overview The OLED display not only shows pressure readings but also other useful information. For example, the "AVG" screen indicates that the average of 10 seconds is shown in Figure 3.1. If the manometer encounters a recoverable error, it will display the message "Remove battery for 30 seconds". Doing so will allow it to restart and recover from the error. If the manometer encounters a non-recoverable error, it will display the message "Sensor Error", followed by an error code. This indicates that the manometer requires repairs. The screen display includes: Screen Name There are "LIVE" screen for one (1)-second average reading screen, and "AVG" screen for average of 10-second reading. Battery Percentage If the battery falls below 20% a low battery alarm will flash on the screen. This can be dismissed with a short button press. If the battery falls to 0%, it will automatically shut down. Insert new batteries if that happens. Readings (Average or Live) reading in the middle row is the main reading at the current screen. In the example below, it is the average reading of 10 seconds. If it is "LIVE", it is the average of one (1) second. The reading at smaller font in the bottom row is the live reading in this example. Note that there is no such smaller reading in the "LIVE" screen. Unit the readings are in the unit of Pascal by default. Users can change the unit to inches of water, through the app. Figure 3.1 4 March 28, 2025 4. Changing Batteries The micromanometer uses two AA batteries. Follow these steps to replace the batteries: 1) Remove silver Philips screw and open battery door. 2) Replace AA batteries. 3) Close battery door and screw tight. 5. Connecting Sampling Tubing The ports are sized to fit 3 mm ID silicone tubing supplied with the instrument. 6. The GammaGuard App 6.1 How to Get GammaGuard The micromanometer can be connected to an Android and iOS app, GammaGuard, which allows you to see the results remotely and to graph the results over time. ANDROID: The link of the "GammaGuard" App in the Google Play Store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details? id=com.eic.gammaguard You can also search Google Play for "GammaGuard". (Use the exact spelling and do not use Google's suggested alternate spelling.) iOS: In the App Store, search for "GammaGuard 2.0". Make sure it is 2.0. The older version does not support micromanometers. 6.2 Connect to a RDM3 Micromanometer · Before starting GammaGuard, be sure that Bluetooth is enabled on the phone. · The first time GammaGuard is started, it will request location permissions and nearby device permissions. These both need to be granted in order to connect to Bluetooth devices. If given the option, be sure to grant "Precise" location permissions. Notification permissions are optional, but better allow Bluetooth devices to stay connected in the background. 5 March 28, 2025 · GammaGuard will display Bluetooth devices within range. Swipe down to refresh the list. · The device will appear as "RDM3" followed by the device serial number at the top of the screen. · Click "Connect" to try to connect to manometers. · If the connection process is repeatedly failing, try restarting your mobile phone. If the process is still failing, pull the batteries from the RDM3 device. 6.3 Collect Data with GammaGuard · Once the manometer is successfully connected to GammaGuard, it will display the screen of both "Live" and "AVG" readings in the unit of Pascal by default. · You can zero the readings both on app and on device by clicking the zero button on the screen on the app. · When you enable the graphing function (Menu > App Settings > Data Recording), you can view the reading in the Graph View tab. · You can change the response time by sliding the "RESPONSE TIME" bar at the bottom to get a desired interval. · Once a data logging session has ended, it will then be available in the archive section for later viewing and exporting. 6 March 28, 2025 6.4 Store Data on Device Data can also be logged on the micromanometer itself, allowing collection of data when not connected to GammaGuard. Start by enabling this option in Device Settings. To access stored data, go to Menu > Local Data. If Local Data doesn't appear, Menu > Settings, scroll down to Enable Local Data, enable the checkbox for this feature. You can either press "Export" to export the data stored locally on the manometer to your phone, or press "Delete" to delete all local data stored on the manometer. When data is exported or deleted, this is applied to all data stored on the manometer, specific data points or sequences cannot be exported or deleted individually. Data is stored on the phone is CSV format for viewing in either a text editor or spreadsheet application. 6.5 Changing Device Settings in GammaGuard Click Menu > Device Settings. You can change the averaging time and units of the device on the app via BLE. 7. One Year Limited Warranty This limited warranty applies to the RDM3 micromanometer, purchased from RadonAway.
