For each mid point:
SPAN CAL M A1:CONC1=50 PPM CO = XXXX
< TST TST > ZERO SPAN CONC EXIT
Wait until
STABIL falls
below 0.2 PPM
(for M300E).
This may take
several minutes.

Midpoint N+1 to enter the sample
port.

Set the Display to show the
COSTB test function.
This function calculates the
stability of the CO
measurement.
Plot the analyzer responses versus the corresponding calculated concentrations to obtain
a calibration relationship. Determine the best-fit straight line (y = mx + b) determined
by the method of least squares.
After the best-fit line has been drawn, determine whether the analyzer response is linear.
To be considered linear, no calibration point should differ from the best-fit line by more
than
±
2% of full scale.
If carried out carefully, the checks described in this section will provide reasonable
confidence that the T300 is operating properly. Checks should be carried out at least
every 3 months as the possibility of malfunction is always present.
