Running calibration

•
Use the Start Conditions window to request a calibration run. If needed, you can run
the calibration samples followed by controls and patient samples as appropriate. You
can limit calibration to selected calibration samples or to selected methods.
For example, if you want to run only a reagent blank or blank rate, select only the
blank solution.
•
The Ordinary calibration meas. list at the Test Select window determines which tests
are available to calibrate. The Sample Select window determines which calibrators
are available.
•
Use the ISE Operation window to manually request an ISE calibration for
maintenance or troubleshooting purposes.
•
Use the Calibration Setup window to automatically perform calibration after a user-
specified time interval.
•
The Auto calibration meas. and Auto calib. control samp. meas. lists on the Test
Select window determine which tests are available for calibration and control,
