Calibration Procedure
CALIBRATION PROCEDURE DEFINITION
The calibration procedure has been broken down into four different areas of calibration. The different calibration areas segregate the full calibration procedure into smaller, more manageable calibration sections. These sections are then selected based on the service performed. Additional information can be found by clicking on the flow chart below.
The different calibration levels defined below are the
MINIMUM requirement of level of calibration to be performed. Ultimately, a full, level 6 calibration is preferred for all levels of service work completed.
The full calibration procedure definition, including a step- by-step procedure, can be found in the ForceTriad Service Manual. The information found in the Calibration Procedure section of this guide is for reference only.

The system responds to a power cycle and begins the system initiation. The three display screens show a much darker screen of the expected white Covidien screen.
This can range from slightly darker to nearly unreadable.
The system responds to a power cycle and begins the system initiation. The screen and/or screens begin to flicker. The flickering can happen once or occur constantly.
The system does not respond to a power cycle. The system displays and scanners do not illuminate.
The system initiates the self-test and may pass a portion of the testing. The unit then fails at some point during the self-test. The unit will generate an error but not an error code.
