TUR is Calculated Incorrectly for Single-Sided Limits When Neither Limit is +/- Inf

Single-sided limits are typically +Inf or -Inf, which automated calculation in Calibration Executive handles. However, if the non-limit side of a single-sided limit is any real number (not +/-Inf), Calibration Executive returns an incorrect Test Uncertainty Ratio (TUR).

Workaround:

Upgrade to Calibration Executive 6.2, and then apply UL or LL modifier in the uncertainty worksheet to specify the active limit for the test point. For more information, refer to "Measurement Guard Banding and TUR Support" in Calibration Executive 6.2 Help.
