• You must program one of the FL curves S2, HC2 or IODINE.
• The FL curves S2, HC2 or IODINE should be used for the following adjustment.
• The X-ray tube cover must be installed.
• Use the dose ionization chamber of the dose measurement device to measure dose
rates greater than 10 R/min.
• If you are using an area dose product measurement device, mount the dose measure-
