Cal Kit 8850Q

To open the list of the calibration kits (See figure below), use the following softkeys:

To edit a calibration kit, highlight its line in the table.

Calibration kit editing is comprised of two main procedures:

Defining of the calibration standard (See Calibration Standard Definition).

Assignment of classes to calibration standards (See Classes of Calibration Standards).

First, define the calibration standards, and then assign classes to them. Calibration standard definition and assignment of classes is performed in different tables.

The label of a calibration kit and its description can be edited in the table of the calibration kits (See above figure). The label appears on the calibration menu softkeys. The description is just to provide information for the user.

The table also contains display-only fields: flags of predefined and modified calibration kits and the counter of the calibration standards in a kit.

Move the highlighting to the required line in the calibration kit (See figure above) table using “” and “↓” arrows and click on the «Enter» softkey.

The checkmark in the “Select” field does not matter for the kit selection for editing, it selects the calibration kit for calibration.


Calibration Kit Label and Description Editing
