If the ZERO or SPAN buttons are not displayed during zero or span
calibration, the measured concentration value is too different from the
expected value and the analyzer does not allow zeroing or spanning the
instrument. Refer to Section 12.4 for more information on calibration
problems.

9.3. MANUAL CALIBRATION CHECKS
Informal calibration checks will only evaluate the analyzer’s response curve, but do not
alter it. It is recommended as a regular maintenance item, to perform calibration checks
in order to monitor the analyzer’s performance. To carry out a calibration check rather
than a full calibration, perform the following procedures:
alter it. It is recommended as a regular maintenance item, to perform calibration checks
in order to monitor the analyzer’s performance. To carry out a calibration check rather
than a full calibration, perform the following procedures:
STEP ONE: Connect the sources of zero air and span gas as shown in Figure 9-1.
STEP TWO: Perform the zero/span calibration check procedure:
