Software for automated calibration

Software for automated calibrations. Caliber can run autonomous calibration using instruments' remote controls and print calibration reports according to ISO17025. Available with CamOCR module.

Caliber software is designed for automated calibration and reporting. It does the same thing as you would with Excel spreadsheet and manual calibration but much faster, cheaper, doing no errors and not bothering you even a minute. Caliber controls calibration instruments using RS232, GPIB or VISA interface where possible. Instruments with no such interfaces can be operated and read manually with Caliber providing detailed step-by-step guidance or optionally, operated manually and read by optical readout module CamOCR.

CamOCR module

Caliber can automate even calibrations of handheld multimeters with no remote control capability. CamOCR module uses camera to scan digital segment displays and translate the images to numerical data used by caliber. This again makes calibrations faster and less likely to be influenced by human factor.

System layout

Two main elements of Caliber are Procedures and Instrument Cards. Procedures are basically lists of calibration points in order of execution containing calibration system layouts, uncertainty sources and other related data. These procedures can be run, managed and customized in Procedure module or created from a scratch in Procedure Wizard. Full version of Caliber will let you export calibration certificates including detailed records of each calibration step, deviations and uncertainties according to EA 4/02.

Linkage to WinQbase

To keep things organized, you can employ database software WinQbase to work in tandem with Caliber. WinQbase is designed specifically for calibration labs to keep detailed information of both standard units and UUTs, such as instrument serial number, inventory data, owner identification, calibration dates and methods, etc. Calibrations done by Caliber software are automatically stored in WinQbase when online or synchronized later when you're out on site without connection to the database. Database is automatically backed up, uses password protected user accounts and loggs every operation within the system so you can't ever lose your calibration data.

Database software for calibration laboratories. WinQbase keeps track of your instruments, calibrations and other essentials using inventory records from calibration software CALIBER..

WinQbase is designed to keep track of your instruments using instrument records. Calibrations done by Caliber software are then linked to these records as well as instrument serial number, inventory data, owner identification, calibration dates and methods, etc.

Instrument database

The list of available items in instrument records is almost endless. As noted above, the database covers every key aspect of the instrument, regardless whether it is your standard or a meter you got from your customer for calibration. Database is backed up with a mirror database and keeps all previous versions with dates and users who changed it. Backup to an external drive is also possible.

Calibration database

Calibration records include all previous results and dates and can be visualised in the same way as any other database. You can therefore print a list of instruments from all your customers whose calibrations are about to expire. System stores all changes and keeps all previous versions with dates and users who changed it, no record can be deleted from the database.

Linkage to Caliber

Linkage to Caliber is another important feature of WinQbase. You can run Caliber assisted calibration straight from WinQbase and the results will be automatically recorded to your database. Automated calibrations are done exclusively by Caliber, which has to be set up for your instruments. PC configuration with printer and remote control buses (RS232, GPIB or USB) is recommended.
