Fig. 81:  Screen showing details about a single calibration procedure

A screen with detailed information about the failed calibration procedure opens. In this 
example it says that the measured value is too high. The measuring range needs to be 
adjusted to include the measured value. 

Note

Manual calibration with “Zero gas” or “Span gas” can be repeated at 

any time.

11.3 Automatic Calibration (AutoCal)

In addition to the manuall calibration (ManuCal) an automatic calibration (AutoCal) feature 
is available for single and multi channel multigas analyzers starting from software version 
2.24. Follow these steps for automatic calibration. The numbers refer to 'Fig. 81 Screen 
showing details about a single calibration procedure'
