CALIBRATION
IMPORTANT
: The white tile is dramatically affected by smudge marks and dust, and must be kept clean. It is
recommended that the device is cleaned regularly. Refer to the Cleaning section later in this manual for
procedure on cleaning the white tile and optics area.
The docking station has an integrated white tile. Device calibration frequency can be set from 1 to 24 hours. See
section Calibration Settings for additional information. A white icon
indicates that the calibration is current, and
the segments around the circle indicate when the next calibration is required. A red icon
indicates that a
calibration is required. When this occurs, calibration must be performed before any measurements can take place.
Any eXact 2 device can be calibrated on any docking station. The device is not tied to the calibration reference it
came with. The device reads the QR code on the docking station to know the calibration information.
Calibration Settings
This option is used to define the settings for Calibration.
To access the Calibration Settings:
1. Select Calibration (1) from the eXact 2 menu. The Calibration screen displays the current calibration status,

3. Tap the setting (3) you want to change. A description of each available setting follows below.
4. Tap
to return to the main screen.
Calibration Valid (Hours)
Used to set the time required between calibrations. The calibration time can range from 1 hour to 24 hours in
one hour increments. The default setting is 12 hours.
Calibration Warning Timer 1 (mins)
Used to set the amount of time before a first warning message appears to indicate a calibration is needed.
The calibration warning timer 1 window can range from 2 to 60 minutes in 1 minute increments. The default
setting is 60 minutes.
Calibration Warning Timer 2 (mins)
Used to set the amount of time before a second warning message appears to indicate a calibration is needed.
The calibration warning timer 2 window can range from 0 to 60 minutes in 1 minute increments. The default
setting is 30 minutes.
Auto-Calibration when docked
When this option is set to On, the device will automatically calibrate when it is placed in the docking station.
This only occurs if the device requires calibration. When the option is set to Off, you will need to manually initiate
a calibration when needed.
