Additionally, you can change when you want the notifications to show up and how frequently you want to be notified to calibrate the instrument. To do this, go to the toolbar in the QuantStudio Software and select Instrument > Instrument Console. Select your instrument icon and click on Manager Instrument > Maintenance > Calibration Reminders. From the Calibration reminders Settings page you can update when the calibrations expire, turn expiration reminders on/off, and set when the reminders show up.
