MC4 User Guide

You can pause a calibration run whenever you want by pressing

. As long as the menu is open, the calibration is paused.

You may also view the calibration window and still keep the cali-
bration paused by selecting the

Pause

option. Then the calibra-

tion starts by pressing

Continue

. In the menu, you also have

the possibility to, e.g.

Undo

a point or

Skip

a point. More of the

menu available in the calibration window can be found in chapter

Calibration Window Menu

on page 145.

3. When the calibration run is

ready,  MC4  opens  a  win-
dow  telling  whether  the  cal-
ibration  was

Passed

Failed

. The found

Maxi-

mum error

and the

Reject

limit

for the calibrated in-

strument are also shown.
