	Monitor Calibration and Profiling
		Calibrating and profiling your monitor should, therefore, be your first priority.
		The primary problem is that your basic eyeball calibration is highly influenced by ambient lighting, how much sleep you've had, and how much coffee is coursing through your veins.
		This is particularly important if you are performing calibration by eye.

	Monitor calibration and gamma
		Unless you have a calibrator you'll have to trust your eyes: White and gray images (where R = G = B) should appear tonally neutral, i.e., they should have no visible tint.
		The left portion, which consists of my gamma chart, is used to calibrate gamma and to adjust fl level, which interacts with gamma.
		The ICC monitor profiles are used by their respective loader programs to calibrate the monitor.

	Gage Calibration
		Using independent or original equipment manufacturers' calibration services can be costly, depending upon the number and types of gages that must be calibrated, and the turnaround time is often in the three-week to six-week range.
		Calibration procedures can be developed by working directly with the original equipment manufacturer; generated from information available from the U.S. government, national or international standards bodies; or developed by in-house personnel.
		Whenever an instrument is calibrated, that calibration data should be compared with the historical data to determine if the calibration interval should be shortened or lengthened.

	Verification Of Calibration for Direct-Reading Portable Gas Monitors
		Calibration at locations where the equipment is to be used is always preferable.
		Correctly calibrating an instrument helps to ensure that the instrument will accurately respond to the gases that it is designed to detect, warning users of hazardous conditions before they reach dangerous levels.
		A full calibration is the adjustment of the instrument’s reading to coincide with a known concentration (generally a certified standard) of test gas.

	ESA - Living Planet Programme - GOCE - GOCE data calibration
		In fact, the biggest difficulty with pre-flight calibration is that the 1 g environment on Earth prevents a proper calibration of the accelerometers since they are designed to operate with the highest accuracy in a 0 g environment.
		The internal calibration is sometimes referred to as 'relative' calibration, since the ratio of the sum and the difference of the accelerometer scale factors is determined.
		External calibration aims to establish that the gradient observations really represent the gradients of the gravity field in Eötvös Units, that remaining unresolved errors are corrected for and that the observations are obtained with the required (or in any case with a known) accuracy.

	HygroLog - calibration
		When humidity calibration is done using the ROTRONIC humidity standards, HW3 automatically corrects the value of the standard to reflect the temperature of calibration (see note).
		Calibration Devices: a calibration device is a small airtight container that fits on the probe and seals around the humidity sensor.
		During calibration, a known reference humidity is produced inside the calibration device by means of a humidity standard.

	Calibration?
		Calibration is required by national and international standards and most require that a system of periodic calibration and maintenance must exist for any facility doing nondestructive testing.
		I do not mean this form of calibration but instead refer to a periodic and more thorough check on the instrumentation performance, usually with the express purpose of assuring that the accuracy and precision specifications of the measuring instrument are met.
		My conclusions are that failure to calibrate and maintain NDT equipment represents a safety risk and a risk to the integrity and credibility of those institutions that choose to ignore this requirement.

	Michigan Instruments, Inc. :: Calibration Info
		Calibration procedures include setting of the compliance and resistance characteristics of the lungs and setting offset and gain characteristics for each of the pressure transducer channels.
		It is these calibration tables that the volume calculation algorithms described in the previous section use to determine the coefficients to use for the real time solution of the dynamic equations.
		To reduce the potential for an inaccurate reading due to the passage of time or extended use, a recalibration is recommended for your instrument every 2 years for Models 3600i, 5600i and 5601i and every 3 years for models 4600, 1600 and 1601.

	CPU Internal Diode Calibration
		There is a simple procedure for calibrating the internal diode on your motherboard---assuming you are lucky enough to have one of the motherboards capable of reading the diode---so that the CPU temperatures you see are the actual internal CPU temperatures.
		The basis of this calibration is that a change in the speed of the CPU will cause a proportional change in the heat output of the CPU.
		While this "practical" calibration of the CPU diode/motherboard combination is probably not as accurate as one done to exacting laboratory standards and is subject to the limitations inherent in the full degree temperature steps, testing with a variety of CPUs, motherboards and heatsinks has proven the procedure to be viable.
