4.7. Calibration Instances
Each calibration instance contains values needed by flow meter to calculate
the actual gas flow rate for a particular process gas and flow range from
sensor readings. This protocol allows Master controller to query for number
of available calibration instances supported by the digital MFC controller and
select a calibration instance for digital MFC operation and calculation. The
detailed calibration instance internal setup is not supported through this
interface and must be programmed through local MFC controller.
