 *********************************************
 0. Introduction:
 This is a two-point calibration method. At the end of the process the results
 of the calibration will be stored in the FLASH memory of the sensor for
 future uses.
 The sensor is calibrated ex works, meaning that no calibration is required
 before initial startup. During operation the sensor should be calibrated if the
 measured values begin to drift.
 Rinse the sensor in clean water and dry it with a soft cloth or an absorbent
 paper before each calibration.
 To exit the calibration without considering anything please insert 'Q' to Quit
 and press Enter.
 ****************
 1. Insert the first calibration standart value you will use (offset) and press Enter.
 pH 7 is recommended
 Example: 7
 > 7
 ****************
 2. Place the sensor at selected offset: pH 7.0000
 Wait some minutes until the measure stabilizes.
 Observing the offset in this step will help you assess whether calibration
 is necessary or not, depending on the precision required in your application.
 Then insert 'N' for Next step and press Enter.
 7.04
 >
 7.04
 > N
 ****************
 3. Insert the second calibration standart value (slope) and press Enter.
 pH 4 is recommended)
 Example: 4
 > 4
 ****************
 4. Place the sensor at selected slope: pH 4.0000
 Wait some minutes until the measure stabilizes.
 Then insert 'N' for Next step and press Enter.
 4.03
 >
 4.03
 > N
 ****************
 5. In order to validate the calibration some data is required.
 Please insert operator's name (up to 16 letters) and press Enter.
 > LIBELIUM
 ****************
 6.Please insert calibration date.
 Insert year [yy] and press Enter.
 > 18
 Insert month [mm] and press Enter.
 > 11
 Insert day [dd] and press Enter.
 > 6
 Insert Hour [HH] and press Enter.
 > 9
 Insert minute [MM] and press Enter.
 > 38
 ****************
 Calibration successfully finished!
