3.2.2.5 Setting up Limits for Calculated Parameters
This menu allows you to set up reference and critical
measurement limits for all calculated parameters.
A result that is outside the limits you dene here
will be agged with a single up-arrow if above the
high reference limit, or a single down-arrow if below
the low reference limit. Results above or below the
critical limits will be agged with a double up-/or
down-arrow. A message is included on the printout
explaining each arrow.
