9. Select Next and confirm.
The instrument returns to the calibration menu.
9.7 Automatic calibration
Automatic calibration (Auto calibration) combines zero calibration with subsequent
span calibration and represents an alternative to performing the zero and span
calibration manually.
Not all sensors and gases support auto calibration. If the function is not available,
perform the calibration manually.
9.7.1 Performing automatic calibration
Calibration can be aborted at any time. To abort calibration select back.
Prerequisites:
– Automatic calibration is enabled
– Sensor has finished the warm-up phase
– Calibration is prepared.
Perform automatic calibration
1. Apply Synthetic Air or Nitrogen if ambient air cannot be used.
5) For LC sensors the test gas must be applied for at least 6 minutes.
