3.5.5 Monitor Calibration and Test
This area provides information on the current
monitor calibration status, means to update the
monitor calibration and diagnostics for testing the
serial connection to the monitor.

button and selecting the correct calibration file
matching the monitor. If such a file cannot be
located, this can be obtained from your TECDIS
support provider.
