This article discusses a possible approach to creating a calibration technique for the Galactic and Solar Cosmic Proton Cherenkov Detector. The method is based on the Monte Carlo simulation of proton and electron transfer and their generation of Cherenkov photons in the polymethylmethacrylate radiator. It is shown that, under certain conditions, the device calibration with electrons of 9,38 MeV energy is equivalent to the calibration with a 600 MeV proton beam incident laterally on the detector.
