system automatically returns to the Ready screen after 45 seconds.
If the Auto Repeat function is turned on or Flexible Time calibration intervals are
selected and a parameter shows excessive drift, the system prints a report and
repeats the appropriate calibration for the parameter. Refer to Selecting Calibration
Frequency and Automatic Repeat in Section 5 for more information about these
functions.
If a sensor does not reach endpoint within 90 seconds, the parameter value appears
on the screen with an asterisk and the message D5 No Endpoint also appears. The
sensor is considered not in calibration until the system completes a successful
calibration.
The metabolite one-point calibration is available only from the Analyze mode.
