If the Cal Status Failed message occurs, it means the Span Cal cannot be performed
because it would result in an out of range slope value for the monitor. This means
that either the sensor in the monitor is malfunctioning, causing improper readings,
or the actual ozone concentration being supplied to the monitor is different than the
target value being entered.

The flow calibration allows the instrument to calibrate its internal flowmeter
reading. This should be done with a calibrated flowmeter connected to the sample
inlet of the monitor.
In the Diag>Cal>Flow Cal menu, use the buttons under the Up/Down arrow fields
to set the Flow Cal target (the actual flow as measured at the sample inlet) and press
the Enter button; then press the button under the Execute cal field to perform the
flow calibration or press the Back button to abort back to the start.
If the calibration is successful, the flow display on the Default Screen should match
the Flow Cal target. If the calibration cannot be performed, a Cal Status Failed
message will be displayed, and you will need to return to the start of the Flow Cal
menu.
If the Cal Status Failed message occurs, it means the Flow Cal cannot be performed

The VARS menu allows viewing and editing of various global setup variables that
effect how the 480H operates. These variables are stored in the instrument’s non-
volatile memory. Table 5-4 lists these variables and their function.
