  4. For each standard do the following:

  1. Using the information in the calibrator package insert, enter the Lot No., Lot Name, and Exp. Date.

  2. In the Posi. box, enter the cup position of the standard.

This is the location of the calibrator on the tray.

  1. In the Coeff (FV) box, enter the analyte concentration in the standard.

You can get this information from the calibrator package insert or calculate the value using the standard calculator available on the Method Directory. This directory may already be loaded with the Operator's Guide. From the table of contents on your left, select Methods, then select Methods Directory.
