The calibration program tests and adjusts the accuracy of the temperature of the block. This
done by selecting the temperature of the block for two different temperatures (95 °C and 35 °C).
Then the program compares the measured values from the measuring device with the internal
values. This cycle is carried out in six different block positions. The newly determined
temperatures are used for the temperature calibration of the device. The calibration procedure
for the Mastercycler 384 takes approx. one hour while for the Mastercycler pro 384 and
Mastercycler ep 384 a period of approx. 30 min. is required to complete calibration.
