Note
: How often this needs to be carried out depends on your national law and your
requirements. In Germany it should be every six months.
You will also have to carry out this procedure if you would like to recalibrate your Mini-
TRACE. Recalculate the calibration factors and set the new factor via the software in the line
“CF correction dose rate” for the dose rate and/or “CF correction Bq” for activity. The
correction for activity [Bq] will need to be done for each radionuclide. The default value is set
to 100, meaning 100%. If measurement result was too low, you will need to set the value
higher than 100; if it was too high you will need to set the value lower than 100.
