Test Sequence
Note
Time Zone Alert: If the dock is connected over a network to a computer
in a different time zone, the time of the computer will be used to update
the dock and any instrument inserted into the dock during testing. If
it is desired to keep the time zone correct, a separate computer in the
proper time zone with the dock application installed should be used to
control the docks in each time zone.
After template application, the instrument's clock will be updated and the
battery voltage checked. If the battery voltage is too low, the dock testing
will abort.
The dock will then check the IQ Force's zero calibration will be checked
and if necessary calibrated
WARNING
Performing the fresh-air calibration in a contaminated
atmosphere will lead to inaccurate and potentially dangerous
readings. The IQ Force must be located in a fresh-air
environment containing 20.9% oxygen and no toxic gases
during calibration. If fresh air is unavailable, a cylinder of "zero
air" containing 20.9% oxygen and 0 ppm toxic gases must be
connected to the fresh-air port with a demand-flow regulator
and a piece of tubing whenever an instrument is in the IQ Force
dock.

Once the zero check/calibration is complete, the dock will flow gas to the
instrument in order to perform the "bump" test. If the instrument is due for
calibration, the dock will bypass the bump test and proceed directly to the
span calibration.
