using the Load Calibration Data From File option on the main
Calibration page, and then selecting the File Will hold Cal Data
for my Entire Job.
Note: You can only reload this data into an Job that has the same
number of Snapshots.
If you select this save option, FrontRunner™ displays the Save
Calibration for Entire Job dialog box. Type in a file name, click
Save, and then click Finished.
It’s important to understand that when Calibration is performed, the
data is stored in the Snapshot step(s) of the Job, so the Job needs to
be saved when done. You do not need to use the Save options on
this page unless you want to load the Calibration Data into another
Job, or unless you want to simply have a backup.
