5.1 Evaluating test values
PMF Anode acceleration
• Listen to the sound generated by the accelerating anode. Is the sound normal?
PMF kV and mA
• Do the measured kV and mA values agree with the values selected?
PMF mAs selection
• Do the measured mAs values agree with the values selected?
PMF mAs value displayed
• Does the measured mAs value agree with the displayed mAs value (for AEC)?
PMF Grid voltage
• Attach the magnification table. Measure the grid voltage (small focus) on tube test point
G against test point H

. Does the measured value agree with the value in the test proto-
col?
• Test both focal spots (if available).
PMF Signal lamp
• Does the radiation-ON indicator light up?
