@Ssalimeh , the latest version of the user’s guide is available at the link below and should have the answers you seek. In particular, please take a look at the Model and Interpreting Results section

Ah, is there any chance you are in one of these states?

  • China
  • Crimea
  • Cuba
  • Donetsk People’s Republic
  • Iran
  • Luhansk People’s Republic
  • North Korea
  • Syria
  • Vietnam

If so, then your best bet will be to use a VPN to access the live documentation. Unfortunately, google cloud (our web host for most of our resources) restricts access to all of the states listed above.

Sorry for the inconvenience!
