ABOUT CAPTURE

 

Welcome to CAPTURE, a RAD7 and DRYSTIK communications tool for Windows and macOS. CAPTURE downloads radon data files from the RAD7, displays sophisticated graphs of radon data, and makes it easy to configure Durridge devices and monitor their statuses in real time.

CAPTURE's graph window provides navigation controls, context-sensitive statistics panels, and extensive data configuration options. Radon data may be exported to a variety of human-readable formats, as well as printed in high resolution.

In addition to CAPTURE's RAD7 related functionality, the program can also communicate with the Durridge DRYSTIK active moisture exchanger, monitoring its status and configuring the device for optimal performance.

First-time CAPTURE users are encouraged to begin with the Obtaining Data From a RAD7 section of this manual, which provides information on connecting to a RAD7, transferring data records to the computer, and displaying a radon data graph.

We appreciate your purchase of the RAD7, and we are pleased to offer CAPTURE to help you get the most out of your investment. More information on DURRIDGE Products, including the RAD7, is available at http://www.durridge.com.
