Stage Calibration Adjustment
The stage calibration may occasionally need to be adjusted (for example: a different type of crucible pan is used).
To do this, first run an Indium sample on the DSC and measure the peak transition energy.
Then click on the settings gear icon and click on the "DSC Indium calibration Values" button.
Enter the Indium sample mass and measured transition enthalpy. Then click apply.
The stage may also need to be adjusted for temperature accuracy.
To set this, click on the settings gear icon and then click on the "Change sample calibration Values" button.
Follow the instructions presented on the screen.
When you are done, click on the red cross in the corner and tick the "Apply sample calibration" tickbox.
Please refer to the "Sample Calibration" section of the LINK manual for further information on this.
