    2. SENSOR CALIBRATION VERIFICATIONS
     Check a representative sample of sensors for calibration and adequate location.
     Test the packaged controls and BAS readings.
     Use the same test instruments as used for the original calibration, if possible.
     Verify that the sensor reading (via the permanent thermostat, gage, packaged control panel or
    building automation system (BAS)) compared to the test instrument-measured value is within the
    tolerances specified in the contract requirements. (______________________________).
     “In calibration” means making a reading with a calibrated test instrument within 6 inches
    of the site sensor.
     For items out of calibration or adjustment, fix now if easy, via an offset in the BAS,
    calibration or replacement of sensor.

    3. DEVICE CALIBRATION VERIFICATIONS


     Check a representative sample of actuators and devices for calibration and adequate operation.
     “In calibration” means observing a readout in the BAS and going to the actuator or
    controlled device and verifying that the BAS reading is correct.
     For items out of calibration or adjustment, fix now if easy, via an offset in the BAS, or a
    mechanical fix.
