1.4 UUT Calibration Procedure Library
In 'Procedure' Mode, UUT calibration procedures are driven from memorized sequences.
These are supplied on FLASH memory cards, each usually holding up to three
manufacturer models with three procedure types. The procedures: '1 Year Verification,
'Adjustment' and 'Verify Pass/Fail' contain information based on the manufacturer's
published specifications, and are correct at the time of publication. (Users can, of
course, generate their own versions of procedures using Portocal II, or 9010.)
The library contains procedures for some of the equipment available from manufacturers
worldwide. For a complete updated listing of the Fluke Procedure Library, contact
your local sales representative or Fluke Service Center.
For a list of some of the procedures available, refer to the current Procedure Library
document.
1.5 Printer Support
9010 and Portocal II software both support around 170 different models of printer.
Paper sizes and margins are programmable, allowing text and data to be positioned
anywhere on a page.
1.6 UUT Calibration Certificates
1.6.1 Procedure Mode Results Printouts
ISO 9000 requires that calibration records be maintained for later inspection. Whether
or not 9010 / Portocal II is purchased, the Model 9100 Procedure Mode supports two
formats for recording results. For a basic certificate of results, or a simple pass-fail
format for each test, a printer can be connected directly to the 25-way Centronics™
printer port on the rear panel. The printer is configured from the screen menu.
1.6.2 9010 and Portocal II Custom Certificates
With 9010 and Portocal II, custom certificates can be generated by transferring results
to a memory card (SRAM only) inserted in the front-panel 'RESULTS' slot. This card
can be read to a personal computer running 9010 or Portocal II software, via a memory
card reader. To design a custom certificate, the software uses the R&R Report Writer™
application to control layout, type and graphics.
9010 and Portocal II software also contain pre-designed calibration certificates.
Note about Formatting SRAM
Cards as Results Cards:
Before a new SRAM card can be used to
store results, it must first be formatted
for the purpose. This can be carried out
by the Model 9100 in Test mode, as part
of the 'Card Slot Test' procedure.
