If you wish to recalibrate the sensor during the same testing session, you may either select File -> New to get a
new Real-time Window, or select Tools -> Uncalibrate to reset the calibration of the current window. The current
calibration will be saved between sessions, unless Uncalibrate is selected. A dialog prompt will open asking if you
are sure you want to uncalibrate. It is usually a good idea to save your calibration file before you uncalibrate, as
there is no way to retrieve your calibration once you use this command and click OK in the message prompt below.
Sensitivity
(or "Adjustable Gain") is also adjusted in the Calibration dialog box. The Sensitivity should be adjusted
whenever necessary to keep the force display in a usable range. Sensitivity settings are saved between sessions,
and are included with calibration files. The sensitivity adjustment is described in detail in the Calibration Procedure.
Uncalibrate:
This option removes the sensor’s calibration data. When this item is selected, a dialog box will
appear, giving the option of canceling the Uncalibrate operation. Uncalibrate does not affect the Sensitivity setting.
