WinQbase Calibration SW
The WINQBASE software is designed for calibrations of various types of measuring instruments. Among other things, it includes execution and recording of calibrations, recording of instrument repairs, history of changes in inventory records and calibration records etc. The WinQbase program allows you to easily obtain different types of instrument overviews by selected criteria, select executed calibrations and a history of amendments to the records etc. A wide scale of printing features (such as print of records, calibration reports…) is one of its parts. Furthermore, the system allows creating of calibration procedures that is calibration procedure, for executing calibration and conceivably allows you to use calibration procedures created previously in programs of company MEATEST.
A part of software package is execution module CALIBER, which is aimed for automatic and semiautomatic calibration of meters of various quantities, both digital and analogue. It can be applied either with automatic linking to WinQbase database or as independent stading alone program. CALIBER can be used generally for calibration of any meters. For calibration of multimeters it is equipped with extra build-in features. Basic philosophy is found on by user prepared calibration procedures for calibration
of a meter or source as DUT – calibrated by by user specified source (or meter) of standard values. For this purpose CALIBER contains calibration procedure generator with easy control. Calibration procedures are generated automatically from software instrument cards of instruments
which take part in calibration. Instrument cards contain all information about meter/source, which are important from calibration point of view like functions, ranges, accuracy, etc. Software automatically calculates deviations of DUT and calibration uncertainty
according to standard EA-R4. Samples of calibration procedures and frequently used instrument cards can be downloaded on Meatest´s web site.
Communication of individual system instruments runs on a standardized bus GPIB or RS-232. Digital displays of the meters can also be scanned by camera module CamOcr. The system output is a calibration test report containing measured values and their evaluation. Operation environment Windows NT/2000/XP is required. Software is protected against unauthorised copying by hardlock. If SW doesn’t find hardlock on the print port, program will run automatically in DEMO mode only. Finished calibration of UUT is real result of calibration system. As a document about calibration, test report with all measured and evaluated values is created.
