Depress the 

F1 

(

UP 

) or 

F2 

(

DWN

) key to 

reach the value indicated on the Radiome-
ter, 

260mW/cm

, then save and confirm it 

by the 

F3 

(

STP

) and 

F4 

(

OK 

) keys.  

9.3 

Calibration without I.R. Radiometer 

Calibrating the Tail Flick Unit without the I.R. Radiometer, means to recall the default cal-
ibration value set at our factory during the testing phase. 

From the Calibration Menu, depress the 

F1 

(

DEF

) key and proceed by the 

F3 

(

YES

) key, 

to confirm the change. 

 

The default calibration value is thus recalled. 

10 MAINTENANCE 

 

While any service of the instrument ought to be carried out by Ugo Basile personnel or by 
qualified personnel authorized by UGO BASILE organization, this section of the instruc-
tion manuals describes normal maintenance procedures which can be carried out at your 
facility. 

UNPLUG THE MAINS CORD BEFORE CARRYING OUT 
ANY MAINTENANCE JOB!

 

10.1 Electrical 

To inspect and/or replace the fuses, disconnect the mains cable first! Insert a miniature 
screwdriver in the slot indentation, see paragraph 4.5.1, and snap out the slide which 
houses the fuses. 

The Tail Flick Unit universal mains input accepts any voltage from 85 to 264 Volt AC., for 
which we recommend the use of 2A fast-blow fuses (type F2A). 

Snap in the fuse slide: the mechanical “click” ensures that it is locked.
