A system audit is an on-site inspection and review of the quality assurance activities used for the total
measurement system (sample collection, sample analysis, data processing, etc.); it is an appraisal of system
quality.

10.5. DYNAMIC MULTIPOINT CALIBRATION PROCEDURE
10.5.1. LINEARITY TEST
In order to record the instrument’s performance at a predetermined sensitivity and to derive a calibration
relationship, a minimum of three reference points and one zero point uniformly spaced covering 0 to 90 percent
of the operating range are recommended to define this relationship.

The analyzer's recorded response is compared with the known concentration to derive the calibration
relationship.
