Place a calibrated grid of approximately 0.2" spacing in the film gate and clamp. Determine the length that each side of the projected grids should be by multiplying the actual grid spacing by the magnification range as engraved on the selector buttons, and record in the space below. Make 16 random measurements of the projected grid lines, 4 in each quadrant, in each magnification range. Half of these measurements should be in the X direction and half in the Y direction; record measurements below. Calibrated grid of ~ '~r~ spacing.

The brilliance control should be left in the maximum pas- ition throughout the entire test - preferably for at least $ hours without shut-off during breaks in the test schedule. Test should start with a new lamp and should burn-out occur, record the time on the lamps used for the test. At the end of the test, check all optical elements for heat damage - check lamps for bulges and swelling. III. FILM TRANSPORT TEST A. Film Degradation Test: Load a roll of 9z" standard base film which is free from any scratches or gouges, i. e., straight from the photo lab and in new condition. Scan and slew in both directions 60 times (90 times each way) with frequent stops and starts within a 10 to 20 foot marked segment of the film. Check this segment of film at the highest magnification for evidence of degradation. The film is~is not appreciably degraded - make statement below as to seriousness of degradation, if any. B. Film Drive Test Load a full 8" diameter reel of standard or thin base film and scan or slew throughout the entire length. Also, scan and slew back and forth several times at or near each end of the film to determine that operation of the film drive is in accordance with Film Drive Specifications. The unit will not satisfactorily "handle" full reels of film thraughout the a tine length.
