Note
For span point calibration it is generally a good idea to use 80% of the reporting
range for that channel. For instance, if the reporting range of the instrument is
set for 5%, the proper span gas would be 4%

9.1.3. DATA RECORDING DEVICES
A strip chart recorder, data acquisition system or digital data acquisition system
should be used to record data from the serial or analog outputs of the T803.
If analog readings are used, the response of the recording system should be
checked against a NIST traceable voltage source or meter.
Data recording devices should be capable of bi-polar operation so that
negative readings can be recorded.
For electronic data recording, the T803 provides an internal data acquisition
system (DAS), which is described in detail in Section 7.1
APICOM, a remote control program, is also provided as a convenient and
powerful tool for data handling, download, storage, quick check and plotting (see
Section 8.1.1).
