- InstaLink hotspot
- InstaLink USB
- Instadose mobile app
The Instadose dosimeter automatically saves its daily dose data in the dosimeter. To transfer the dose data to the laboratory’s database, the dosimeter needs to communicate with a communication device. It can be an App, a USB stick (Instalink) connected to a computer connected to the Internet or an independent device (Hotspot) which is connected with an Ethernet cable to the Internet. The dosimeter can communicate with the device in two ways.
The first method is that the dosimeter is manually triggered to establish communication by keeping the dosimeter’s send button pressed for 4 seconds.
The second method is the dosimeter automatically establishes communication according to a calendar setting that the user himself sets on the www.instadose.com platform. All dosimeters that are within range of the communication devices transmit their data to Mirion’s server where the encrypted raw data is converted into accumulated dose that is saved to the wearer’s dose register.
A Hotspot is optimal for larger groups (> 10) who store their dosimeters together when not being worn and use the calendar readout.
An Instalink is a solution where a computer’s existing MAC address and connection is used. Practical when IT requirements make it difficult to connect a Hotspot to the network.
A mobile app is useful for all ambulatory or dispersed personnel. Requires the user to start the communication from the dosimeter himself. The app is called Instadose Companion and is available for free download at
