Section I - Functional Description

This manual describes the operation of the Genius™ Checker/Calibrator. This device has been developed to check the accuracy of the Genius™ 3
Tympanic Thermometer and automatically recalibrate the thermometer, if necessary. In addition, the Genius™ Checker/Calibrator has the
capability to generate a test report for each thermometer tested and save it to a USB flash drive.
The Genius™ Checker/Calibrator will work with all Genius™ 3 Thermometer software revisions.
The Genius™ Checker/Calibrator contains two independently controlled infrared calibration targets that are similar to factory calibration targets.
These "blackbody" targets are designed to have efficient radiative heat transfer and produce infrared radiation that approximates the human ear
at temperatures of 32.22 °C (90.0 °F) and 40.55 °C (105.0 °F).
In addition to supporting the Genius™ 3 Tympanic Thermometer, the Genius™ Checker/ Calibrator also fully supports the
Genius™ 2 Tympanic Thermometer. Throughout this document, where a Genius™ 3 Thermometer is noted, the caution, warning
or instruction also applies to a Genius™ 2 Thermometer unless otherwise noted.
