Optional : DAP meter
The installation and maintenance of the DAP meter can be performed only by authorized service
personnel.
To correctly determine the dose value to which the patient has been exposed, it is necessary to reset
the dose value before starting the exam.
The equipment can be supplied with a ionization chamber dosimeter (dose-are product meter, DAP meter).
The DAP meter can be installed during the preparation or in a following phase.
The function of the DAP meter is to measure the dose-area product (μGym
2
) that is going out towards the
patient:
"n" is the number of exposures performed after the last pressing of F5-RESET push-button.
If the DAP meter is installed and worked properly, the
first line of the display shows the standard of
measurement (μGym
2
) and the sum of the measures.
The sum of the measures is the sum of all dose-area
products read by the chamber.
The value is reset by pressing the F1+RESET
pushbutton.
1. Press the function key F4 to print the dose value.
The function for printing the dose value is
active only with DAP meter installed and in working
condition.
