The following table lists all the components that make up the document.
Replace the RadSeeker CS stabilization module. Several steps will need to be performed using the NSDD (Nuclear Smuggling Detection and Deterrence) Maintenance Toolbox (NMT), available from the NSDD Program. The user must have familiarity with NMT to perform the tasks and complete this procedure.
Prior to arrival, notify operators concerning expected work and duration.
Added steps to use NSDD Maintenance Toolbox (NMT) 4.0 software instead of HATS. Included all disassembly steps for clarity. Modified steps to remove detector assembly without the need to cut wire ties.
