Explicit and Cyclic Calibrations Together

This type of sequence comprises explicit and cyclic calibrations in the same

sequence.

This feature allows you to recalibrate the method completely at the beginning

of a sequence (explicit recalibration) and then update the calibration (cyclic

recalibration) during the sequence.

• Two calibration lines for each calibration level in the Sequence table must

be specified. One calibration line is for the explicit recalibration entry and

the other for the cyclic recalibration entry.

• The sequence table must have entries for each calibration line and all cyclic

recalibration vials must appear before both the explicit recalibration and

sample entries.

Example

The sequence table below illustrates a single-level calibrated method called

SimpReg. It is truncated to simplify the example.

There are two entries for the single calibration level.
