QAP tests require that the system be on, be idle, and that the detector not be in power save mode for at
least 10 minutes.
IMPORTANT!: Do not use the control and display panel to change the exposure settings when
performing QAP. The exposure techniques for this calibration are automatically set up by
the calibration software. These techniques are required for proper calibration and should
not be changed by the user.
