After the test, the program prints the results (figure 3-2). Make sure the printout shows

The detector peak, and the high keV and low keV peaks, are no more than 50
units above or below the previous peak settings.
•
Each Functional Measurement has a spillover of less than 9%. A spillover
between 9–10% is marginal, and spillover of more than 10% is failing.
•
The Standard Values have CV values of 2.0% or less. Mean values do not change
from the expected value by more than 5%.
If these conditions are not successful, an error message shows on the bottom of
the printout and on the screen.
