The new CAL3K calorimeter system has been designed to make the operator's work easier. This starts with restricting the day to day operation to a few keystrokes and making use of the function keys.

The CAL3K is a complicated ‘beast’. It has options for just about everything (except making coffee). This is overwhelming to say the least. So, what is really important to measure the first sample?
