Setting the tube-current reduction
In Mammomat 300, the tube-current reduction is factory-set to "ON", which means that
the tube current is reduced to approx. 50 mA during the first 100 ms of the exposure. In
this way, possible grid lines are avoided.
If the tube-current reduction is set to "OFF", grid lines may occur at short exposure times
(< 100 ms).
NOTE!
The tube-current reduction is effective only in Iontomat mode.
