Data Calculation
Xtal DPM
5
The Xtalscint DPM program assumes the samples are counting to the same efficiency. Instead
of a quench curve, only one dpm standard is required. The efficiency of this standard is
deter-mined at the beginning of the sample set by counting a standard with a known dpm
prepared in the same manner as the samples. This calculated efficiency is used to calculate the
dpm of the remaining samples in the set.
Setting Up Xtal DPM
When editing a User Program, from the Data Calculation Menu (Figure 5.1), choose XTAL
DPM. The menu displayed is shown in Figure 5.11. The prompts for the standard used to
determine the dpm and for unit selection are described below. The remaining prompts are the
same prompts described for the CPM program. Refer to Setting Up CPM/Xtal CPM Section 5
for information on setting these prompts.
DPM in Standard
Calculate this dpm using the DPM of the Standard listed by the manufacturer on the label of
the isotope container used to make the Xtalscint Standard. DPM for the standard must be
entered.
To enter DPM of the Standard, highlight this prompt and enter the dpm using up to 7 digits
and a decimal point.
