return the ‘NIST Traceable Reference Tube’ to the stainless steel tube, taking care not to have

Note: It is recommended to run at least three validation tests using the ‘NIST Traceable
Reference Tube’. After each test, eject and reinsert the tube. If performing ‘back-to-
back’ validations, perform a manual initialization by using the ‘Start Initialization.
Button from the Admin screen before the next calibration. This will help with possible
errors that sometimes occurs during ‘back-to-back’ validations. Follow the above
procedure to run another validation test for the ‘NIST Traceable Reference Tube’. If the
validation fails on all three tests, please contact your Falex or Compass representative.
