Configuring of Dose Calculation System
12
The Dose Calculation System comes with factory default values. Normally, the factory
default values should be used. If desired, measurements of HVL (Half Value Layer) and
Dose Exchange factors can be performed to improve the accuracy of displayed dose
value. These measurements should be performed by the hospital’s medical physicist, and
are described in the document "Radiographic Handbook, Dose Calculation System,
SPB7-230.206.01...". The measuring procedure is quite complicated, and should only be
performed by a physicist familiar to similar measurements. If the HVL and Dose Exchange
values are to be measured, the document "Service Program" describes how to enter the
values in the Dose Calculation Program.
If reinstalling factory default parameters, all previously entered measured data (HVL val-
ues and Dose exchange factors) will be lost. However, the measured data should already
be noted in the document "Radiographic Handbook".

If the Dose Calculation System is enabled, affix a mAs / mGy label over the "mAs" text on
the control and display panel. The label is found in register 3 of the Technical Manual
binder.
