Details
With MET/CAL the user configures:
• Specific statistics used
• Confidence / Coverage
• Number of measurements
• Accuracy of the standard
In the cal or test procedure you also
specify test parameters:
• Test point
• UUT resolution
In the test process, MET/CAL provides
the uncertainty details (our example is
shown to the right)
Details are permanently stored in the
data base. They accessible for reports
& future analysis.
