7.5 SEM-2
The SEM-2 TED and MEPED are calibrated with proton and electron beams to provide the direct channel responses. Proper instrument
operation in-orbit is verified by In-Flight Calibration (IFC) cycles, which verify electronic gains, thresholds, channel logic
and detector noise levels. The TED particle calibration and IFC operation is described in Section 7.5.1, while the MEPED particle
calibration and IFC operation is described in Section 7.5.2.
