When using the P.V. test frequency feature, configure one P.V. Method with a frequency value.
Multiple active P.V. Methods available in the software, and one has a frequency of 24 hours. The software will prompt the user to perform a P.V. test every 24 hours.
Do not have multiple active P.V. Methods with various frequencies. The software will use the frequency configured in the “default” P.V. Method.
