NOTE The system automatically creates the calibration files into the same folder where the
calibration program is located. The calibration files are named the following way
according to the serial number of the ProMax unit.
If the ProMax sensor head serial number e.g. is: RDX123456, then the calibration files
are named as: RDX123456.p4.cal (p = Panoramic) and RDX123456.c4.cal (c = Cepha-
lostat).
