Job Card CAL A043 - Detector Gain Calibration
7. If the check is successful you are requested to make four exposures for gain calibration. The system
selects the calibration technique and parameters.
8. The system uses information from the four exposures to update the gain map; a message appears to
indicate successful completion.
9. Repeat the procedure for each of the listed techniques.
The following table lists the techniques that must be calibrated, with specified parameters and configura-
tions.
7-3 If the Magnification Option Present
7-3-1 Calibrations
