# Standard Calibration

**Standard calibration mode is recommended for most users.**

Standard calibration is the quickest and simplest method of calibration.

### Enter Calibration mode <a href="#enter-calibration-mode" id="enter-calibration-mode"></a>

* Plug your Rapt Pill into a charger or computer with a USB-C cable (not included) or place on the wireless charger (if the wireless charging kit is installed)
* On your smart phone or tablet, open your WiFi settings and connect to the **RAPT Pill XXXX** access point using the password "kegland1". You may not need to enter the password if you have previously connected your device to the Pill WiFi
* Once the RAPT Pill Access Portal is open on your phone or tablet, navigate to the **Calibration** tab

### Perform Standard Calibration

* Fill a container of sufficient volume to hold the RAPT Pill in suspension with a liquid of known gravity. It is simplest and easiest to use water which has a gravity of 1.000
* Place the Pill gently into the liquid. Ensure that it can float freely and is not touching the bottom of the vessel, as this will affect the angle
* Select **Standard Calibration** in the Pill Captive Portal
* Enter the known gravity of the liquid - typically 1.00 for water or sanitiser at the correct dilution
* Wait for the angle reading to stabilise. The angle will never be completely steady, as it is extremely sensitive
* Hit **Calibrate** and wait for Calibration to be completed

**Your Pill is now calibrated and ready to use!**
