Calibration
3 Calibration
Overview
Calibration is performed at each readhead immediately before each reagent
strip is read. The fixed platform contains 2 white calibration bars, positioned
directly under each readhead. As a strip comes into position under a readhead,
the analyzer reads the calibration bar and calibrates for that scanning cycle.
The analyzer then scans the reagent strip and stores the data in memory.
