 The OpenScope MZ uses software calibration to improve measurement accuracy and each OpenScope MZ is calibrated as part of the manufacturing process.  The OpenScope MZ **does not** need to be re-calibrated before each use, however, calibration is recommended before the first use and when changing environments, especially if there is a large temperature variation between environments.   The OpenScope MZ uses software calibration to improve measurement accuracy and each OpenScope MZ is calibrated as part of the manufacturing process.  The OpenScope MZ **does not** need to be re-calibrated before each use, however, calibration is recommended before the first use and when changing environments, especially if there is a large temperature variation between environments.
