where the tests are being performed are within the acceptable
operating range. Refer to the Precision PCx or Precision PCx Plus
Test Strip and linearity kit instructions for use.

Error Messages
In this section, you will find information relating to error messages
that appear on the display when errors are detected by the Precision
PCx Monitor.
For each corresponding message, an explanation is given and appropriate
responses are described. In many situations, it may be possible to proceed
with some of the functions, at least temporarily, before attending to the
problem. (For example, when the batteries are too low to permit testing, it
may be possible to review data for a short time).
