Recalibrating the Unit
Manufacturing and service center calibrations are based on the ISO/IEC 17025
Standard, which states that calibration documents must not contain a
recommended calibration interval, unless this has been previously agreed upon
with the customer.
Validity of specifications depends on operating conditions. For example, the
calibration validity period can be longer or shorter depending on the intensity of use,
environmental conditions and unit maintenance. You should determine the
adequate calibration interval for your unit according to your accuracy requirements.
Under normal use, EXFO recommends calibrating your unit every year.
Note:
The FlexCare warranty program includes Calibration/Verification
packages (see
Service and Repairs
on page 29).

time. The unit displays the main embedded
software version.
