This Class B digital apparatus meets all requirements of the Canadian

Interference-Causing Equipment Regulations.

English 5

Cet appareil numérique de classe B répond à toutes les exigences de

la réglementation canadienne sur les équipements provoquant des

interférences.

FCC Part 15, Class "B" Limits

Supporting test records reside with the manufacturer. The device

complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the

following conditions:

1. The equipment may not cause harmful interference.

2. The equipment must accept any interference received, including

interference that may cause undesired operation.

Changes or modifications to this equipment not expressly approved by

the party responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to

operate the equipment. This equipment has been tested and found to

comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part

15 of the FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable

protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated

in a commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses and can

radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in

accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful

interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a

residential area is likely to cause harmful interference, in which case

the user will be required to correct the interference at their expense.

The following techniques can be used to reduce interference problems:

1. Move the equipment away from the device receiving the

interference.

2. Reposition the receiving antenna for the device receiving the

interference.

3. Try combinations of the above.

Section 8 Calibration

This instrument is calibrated at the factory. No user calibration is

necessary.

8.1 Standard calibration adjust

Use the standard calibration adjust (SCA) option when a calibration

must be adjusted to meet regulatory requirements. The factory

calibration is adjusted slightly with the standard calibration adjust

(SCA) option so that the instrument shows the expected value of the

standard solution. The adjusted calibration is then used for all test

results. This adjustment can increase the test accuracy when there are

slight variations in the reagents or instruments.

Note: For instruments with factory-calibrated ranges or methods, the standard

calibration adjust (SCA) feature is disabled when a user-entered calibration is

entered into the instrument. To set SCA back to on, set the instrument to the

factory default calibration. Refer to Set to the factory default calibration

on page 20.

English 15

8.1.1 Do a standard calibration adjust

1. Complete the test procedure for the range to calibrate. For the

sample, use the standard solution concentration given in the test

procedure documentation.

Note: If a standard solution concentration is not given in the test procedure

documentation, a different known standard can be used.

2. When the test procedure is completed, push and hold for

3 seconds.

3. Push until “SCA” shows, then push .

The display shows the standard calibration adjust value.

4. If a different known standard is used, enter the value of the

standard:

a. Push until "Edit" shows, then push .

b. Enter the value of the standard.

Push the or to change the number that flashes. Push to

go to the next digit. Push to go to the previous digit.

5. Push to add the standard calibration adjust value to the factory

calibration curve.

8.1.2 Set the standard calibration adjust to off

To use the factory default calibration again, set standard calibration

adjust (SCA) to off.

1. Push and hold for 3 seconds to enter menu mode.

2. Push until "SCA" shows, then push .

3. Push until "OFF" shows, then push .

Note: To set the SCA function to on again, do a standard calibration adjust.

8.2 User-entered calibration curve

This instrument accepts a user-prepared calibration curve. The

calibration curve can be from 0 to 2.5 absorbance. Make sure that the

calibration curve includes standard values that are less and more than

the range of interest.

The instrument range will be the same as the calibration range. For

example, when the standards that are used are 1.00, 2.00 and 4.00.

The instrument range is 1.00 to 4.00.

16 English

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.
