2.4.8.3 Underranging and Overranging Conditions

The 35360A TRACKER Display displays an underrange indicator when a preset threshold has not yet
been reached, and an overrange indicator when the electrometer’s maximum limit has been exceeded
(see Figures 2-22 and 2-23).

An underrange occurs in the percent-of-center measurement mode when the central exposure is too
small to precisely calculate percentages.

2.4.9 Battery and Bias Annunciators

As already discussed, the 35360A TRACKER Display continuously monitors the ion chamber bias and
battery voltages. If either one of these values is outside the specified range, the 35360A TRACKER
displays an annunciator to indicate the error. Table 2-2 specifies these annunciators.
