Error Number
Tube spits during calibration
Error Code / System Message
CALIBRATE TAPS
Error Question
What should I do if the X-ray tube spits during AMX-Series CALIBRATE TAPS?
Short Answer
At high kVp, the manual recommends slowing the calibration pace and waiting between exposures to allow the tube to recover.
Possible Causes
Tube spit during high-kVp calibration exposures.
Troubleshooting Steps
At higher kVp points, increase time between calibration exposures and wait for READY FOR X-RAY before continuing. If spits persist, stop and evaluate the tube/generator.
Parts Areas to Check
X-ray tube; generator
