HV Plateau
A high-voltage (HV) plateau is normally run at calibration time in order to
set the proper HV and to determine the operating efficiencies. This routine
is provided to automate the plateau procedure and simplify the calculations.
This screen allows you to enter the starting and ending value, the voltage
increment, and the source size. The background count is always one minute.
The data may be saved in a text file or printed to a printer.
The plateau order can be changed from Alpha, Beta, Background to Beta,
Alpha, Background.
STEPS FOR PERFORMING A HIGH VOLTAGE PLATEAU
1.
Turn the Model 3030 on and connect to a computer by way of a
serial port with supplied cable.
2.
Run the Model 3030 control software. Software will automatically
detect the instrument and download all parameters.
