3.7 Calibrating the instrument
The EZ Read 2000 performs an automatic calibration of the lamp energy before it measures a
microplate; however, the user may use a calibration plate containing a series of neutral density
filters with known optical density to verify reader performance. See Section 8: Ordering for order
details.
