What does a "conditional pass" indicate during a calibration check?

A "conditional pass" during a calibration check signifies that the device has met some, but not all, necessary criteria for accuracy and reliability. This indicates that while the device is operational, it may require adjustments before it can be deemed fully accurate for use in testing. Calibration checks are essential for ensuring that breath testing devices, like the Intoxilyzer 8000, are providing reliable readings. A conditional pass suggests that the device has not failed completely, but there's an indication that further servicing or calibration is needed to ensure that it operates within acceptable parameters. Ensuring that the device is properly calibrated is crucial for maintaining the integrity of breath alcohol testing processes. Thus, without subsequent adjustments, the device should not be considered fully reliable for immediate testing.
