2. In column 2, enter the calibration factor that existed prior to running the current calibration procedure.
3. Subtract the current factor in column 2 from the new factor in column 1 and divide the result by the current
factor. Enter this result in column 3.
4. Multiply the result in column 3 by 100 and enter the result in column 5.
1. In column 1, enter the new Factor % Diff from column 5 of the previous worksheet (disregard the sign).
