2. Assemble Algometer and connect it to the PC
3. Run a few test protocols, using the AlgoMed software, to verify Algometer runs without
problems
If the Algometer is not planned to be used in the coming weeks, store it in
its original package supplied by Medoc.
14.2 Calibration Verification
It is recommended to periodically verify the Algometer calibration is within acceptable
tolerance.
