Calibration General Principle X-ray detector Notation should be used at stable state Calibration can be done by image acquisition S/W. The gain- within driving offset correction (under calibration) will be done with one dark, at temperature range. Acquire the X-ray least one bright and object frame.
Page 42
Bright Calibration Point calibration To gain correction, bright frame and dark frame should be range of acquired. The dark frame is needed only one frame. The bright bright is can be frame is recommended to be acquired more than 8 different select by which exposure level is levels of median values of bright frames.

3rd step After 2 step, the “Generate” button will be activated. Click the button “Generate”, and then calibration point will be generated which of file name is “A ‘# of point’_ ‘median value of generated point’” like file of bright frame. The acquired bright frames within tolerance value which is variance of median level of acquired bright frames will be averaged and generated to a calibration point.
