Notes.
If you edit an instrument in MC4 and it was originally sent from a cal-
ibration software, the software notices the difference(s) when you
upload the results. Then, depending on your user rights in the soft-
ware, you are either allowed to save the results together with updat-
ed instrument data or you are refused to save anything. So, if you
edit instrument data in MC4, make sure you have the rights to up-
load edited instrument data.
Text fields in MC4 have no limitation on the length of the text/ID.
Take however into consideration, the possible limitations that your
calibration database software may have.
