There are two options to enter a user calibration curve:
• Enter a calibration curve with standards—The standard solution
values are entered with the keypad and the absorbance values are
measured.
• Enter a calibration curve with the keypad—The standard solution
values and absorbance values are entered with the keypad.
Note: If the instrument is set to off or the instrument power is removed before a
user-entered calibration curve is completed, the calibration curve is not saved.
The instrument automatically switches off in user-entered calibration entry mode
after 60 minutes of no activity. User-entered calibrations are completed when the
user goes out of calibration (cal) mode or edit mode.
