8. Repeat above steps with UPPER RIGHT ion chamber detector selected
and UPPER LEFT and UPPER CENTER detectors covered with lead. The
measured mAs reading should be within 5% of the mAs reading noted in
the previous step. If not, adjust the UPPER RIGHT detector gain potenti-
ometer, re-take exposure and verify it is within tolerance. Repeat as nec-
essary.
9. Access the Generator Settings Screen and reset Backup MAS to original
setting noted previously.
NOTE: If the system is equipped with
"universal" type AEC (i.e., AEC Board
A11 is part number AY40-027S), and
the ion chamber is "level" type (i.e.,
Siemens), adjust the appropriate detec-
tor gain potentiometer on AY40-027S in
accordance with the table below:
