1. Place the QA Beamchecker Plus on the treatment couch
ensuring it is flipped to the Photon side as indicated by the large
white field labels on both sides of the device.

size of 20 x 20 cm. Align the unit to the center of the field using
the QA BeamChecker Plus fiducials and the room alignment
lasers.
3. Connect the QA BeamChecker Plus to the PC as shown in
Figure 5 and exit the vault.
4. On the PC connected to the QA BeamChecker Plus, launch the
QA BeamChecker Plus Communication Software.
NOTE: The QA BeamChecker Plus should automatically turn on
when the communication software is launched.
