4.8.4  Checkbox 

The in-built Checkbox provides a simple and effective means of checking the calibration of 
the GammaGT instrument and accessories. According to the Code of Practice the on-
going accuracy of the PAT tester should be verified at regular intervals and recorded. This 
is of special importance if the PAT tester is used on a daily basis. The GammaGT includes 
an in-built Calibration Unit (‘Checkbox’) that is independent from the other instrument’s 
electronic circuitry and connected directly to the output terminals of the instrument. During 
the calibration with the in-built Checkbox all main instrument functions and accessories 
can be verified. The calibration results are automatically stored into the instrument’s 
memory and can be viewed with the PAT Link PRO PC software.
