DR Detector Calibration|Calibrating the DR Detector|7
Calibration Frequency
The DR Detector must be recalibrated at regular intervals. Messages will be displayed on the NX
workstation when recalibration is required.
Perform calibration when exposure conditions have changed significantly and after a major
change to the hardware or software configuration of the X-ray system.
A DR detector used for veterinary applications has a calibration interval of 12 months, regardless
of the model.

Each NX workstation has its own set of calibration da-
ta. The regular calibration must be performed on each
of the workstations.
