procedures recommended by tube manufacturer or

Operator’s Manual.

involve taking x-ray exposures. All personnel

cautions and procedures are adhered to.
The generator was pre-calibrated at the factory, however, the system will need to
be re-calibrated to assure proper operation, verify compliance and set AEC optical
density (on systems equipped with AEC option). Prior to performing Generator

the preceding paragraphs. To gain access to the Generator Calibration utility,

changes to system settings.
