1) Turn the Power Switch OFF for several seconds, then
switch it back ON.
2) Turn the power OFF again and remove the Power Cord
from the electrical outlet. Remove the other end of the
Power Cord from the receptacle on the rear of the
Display Unit.
3) Re-insert the Power Cord into the receptacle and then
plug the Power Cord back into the outlet. Turn the
power back ON.
4) Turn the power OFF, remove the Power Cord from the
outlet and verify that the voltage of the outlet is correct.
If not, repair the outlet or find another outlet that
provides the required voltage. Re-insert the Power Cord
and turn the power back ON.
5) Turn the power OFF, remove the Power Cord from the
outlet and remove the Fuse Holder, as described later in
this appendix (see Figure A-1). Verify that both fuses are
intact. If one or both are not, replace. Re-insert the Fuse
Holder into the rear panel of the Display Unit. Re-insert the
Power Cord into the outlet and turn the power back ON.
If your system still will not power up, call the Biodex
Customer Service Department.
FLUCTUATIONS IN ACTIVITY MEASUREMENT
When the system is displaying activity for the more common
isotopes, the electrometer continually averages the data it
receives from the detector. This ensures, for most readings,
a stable Activity Display.
After you insert an isotope into the Detector and select the
properly calibrated key, the display may vary at low activity
values as the system acquires the new data. After a short
time the Activity Display will stabilize, with expected fluctua-
tions described below. If the display continues to fluctuate,
and you have verified it is not because of a high Calibration
Value, consult Biodex Customer Service Department.
