5.0.2Advanced Entry Calibration

Advanced Entry Calibration is the alternate method for special-case media types. The procedure has two parts:

1)You must list the sensor readings for the label and TOF values using different algorithms.

2)From your list the best algorithm is chosen, new readings taken and those values entered.

Advanced Entry Calibration will override all previous calibration settings; this method should be used only when Standard Calibration has failed.
