✔ Define the calibration plan by combining attribute-based checks (e.g. visual inspection) with data entry for correction and uncertainty calculation
✔ Correctly link the instrument to its reference standards, ensuring full traceability
✔ Establish appropriate acceptance criteria for this type of instrument
✔ Apply the full configuration in a practical calibration example
