Detector Bump Events
NOTE:
When critical impact is determined, there shall be an exposure inhibit until QAP is completed. In
the event of a FAILED QAP, it is recommended to discontinue use of detector and call GE Service.
NOTE:
If a detector is not communicating with a system, the bump event will be stored in the detector
until the detector has reestablished communication with a system. Once the detector has
reestablished communication the events will be uploaded to the system for viewing.
