6.1.1.3 Calibration Settings for Single and Multi Wavelength Mode
Mode Descriptions
A calibration table is created by entering the concentration values and the absorbance values of the
Enter Values analyte solution. The absorbance values are plotted versus standard concentrations and the calibration
curve is displayed as a graph (page 52).
A calibration table is created by entering the concentration values of the standard solutions and then
Read Standards measuring the absorbance of the analyte solutions. The absorbance values are plotted versus standard
concentrations and the calibration curve is displayed as a graph (page 53).
If the calibration curve can be determined from the mathematical relationship between concentration and
Enter Formula absorbance by linear regression, etc., the corresponding formula can be selected (linear, 2nd or 3rd
order polynomial) from a list and the appropriate factors can be entered (page 54).
Press a factor key and use the alphanumeric keypad to enter a
factor. If the formula includes more than one factor, press another
factor key and enter another factor, and repeat until all the factors
have been entered. Press

A method is calibrated by determining the absorbance values of
several standard solutions of known concentration.
There are three ways to create and store a calibration curve.
