  • Page 205: Manipulating The Completion Number, Pmt Level, And Pmt Balance

    Manipulating the Completion Number, PMT Level, and PMT Balance In certain situations (for example, degradation of PMTs or lamps, or the optics are contaminated), it may be necessary to change the P300 and P301 jumper settings on the Optical Bench board. Changing the jumper posi- tions provides coarse gain adjustment of the Reference PMT and therefore changes the completion number result, PMT Level, and PMT Balance.
