Explanation: Warning! Radiation is released during the procedure!

The door of the exam. room must be closed.

The collimator of the selected tube must be closed.

The II should be protected against X-ray with a lead apron.

Connect the oszilloscope to the measuring points mentioned

This procedure must be performed for each new installation, tube replacement,

but also if a symptom points to any kind of tube arcing.

The tube to be conditioned must be selected. Select the tube on the UI.

If possible release the exposures from a radiation protected area.

During the adjustment X-rays are released with an increasing kV.

The kV value reached without arcing of the tube must be entered into the result field.

Procedure:

Select the kV/ mAs start values mentioned on the left side of the screen.

Make an exposure and wait for the time period specified in the "Pause Time" field until you release the next exposures.

Increase the kV until you reach the max. kV. If an arcing is detected, ERROR number

or displayed on the scope decrease the kV one step and try the procedure once again.

The maximum reached value without arcing has to be filled in the "corrected kV max. " field.

This value determines the max. kV for application and adaption.
