variance
If at least 3 calibration buffers have been used then the calibration func-

tion will be calculated as a compensation curve according to the princi-

ple of the smallest mean-square error (linear regression). The resulting

variance will be given here. A more detailed explanation of these calcu-

lations is given in Section 9.2.1.
Each subsequent manual alteration of the calibration data pH(0) and

slope will be documented by the entry '

manual

' against these parame-

ters.

buffer type
The type of buffer defined in the calibration parameters at the time

when calibration was carried out is shown here.

no.of buffers
The number of buffers actually measured is shown here. This can be

lower than that given in the calibration parameters, as a calibration can

be terminated prematurely with ; only the buffers which have

already been measured will then be used for the calculation of the cali-

bration data.

cal.table:

original, delete n, reset cal

This entry can be used to delete individual buffers from the calibration

table ('

delete n

') or to delete all the calibration data of an electrode Id

('
