4.  After the optical surfaces are properly cleaned, check that the 
WINDOW CONT values of both the receiver and transmitter in the 
status message are close to zero. This can also be checked 
afterwards through a remote (modem) line. 
NOTE 
The windows must be dry before checking the WINDOW CONT values.
 
 
5.  If the WINDOW CONT values are not close to zero, give the 
command CALIBRATE WINDOW_CLEAN 
VISIBILITY_SENSOR. This command has no parameters and it 
is used to set the clean references for the contamination control. 
The command also sets the reference for the backscatter 
measurement. 
NOTE 
The windows must be dry before giving the 
CALIBRATE 
WINDOW_CLEAN VISIBILITY_SENSOR 
command. 
 
NOTE 
There must not be any objects in the measurement volume when the 
CALIBRATE WINDOW_CLEAN VISIBILITY_SENSOR
 command 
is given. Especially, the opaque glass plates used for visibility 
calibration must be removed first.
 
 
While cleaning the windows and the hoods, it is also recommended to 
clean the window of the Background Luminance Sensor according to the 
instructions of the LM21 User's Guide (see section  
Related Manuals on page 11).
