1 GENERAL

Standard Agencies and Quality Auditors require the collection, organization and analysis of traceability documents.
CalpMan 2000 (Calibration Procedure Manager) is the software package able to manage all the calibration activities as
required by the regulations. Using the Windows 95/98/NTTM software, it is easy to set both simple and complex testing
procedure using different instruments. It is possible, using the standard instrument drivers, to use all of OMEGA
temperature, pressure, and signal calibrators to test instruments in your laboratory and process.
You can set the complete calibration procedure on PC, save and recall it every time you want; and run the procedure in
laboratory synchronizing the instruments using RS232, save data in the Hard-disk and print the documentation to show
the results in compliance with ISO 9000 requirements.

The main features of CalpMan 2000 are:

• Complete Tag identification and historical documenting of test results;

• Many testing procedures for each defined Tag;

• Many Test points;

• Reference and Tags error limits programming;

• Up to two RS232 connections for multiple instruments control;

• Standards database;

• Calendar for calibration due date.

Benefits to be gained from this system are:

• Optimisation of the maintenance period. By keeping a record of the time required among necessary adjustments,

the optimum maintenance period can be determined.

• Print of the Certificate; a test report can be printed for each TAG.

• Aid in maintenance planning. Data can be used to analyse the time and cost required for instrument calibrations

and can help in planning manpower, specifying supplier, etc.

Test and calibration data are memory stored in a Microsoft Access database in PC Hard-disk to document the calibration
activity. This allows operator to build the Quality control chart/data bank from a single calibration sheet to a detailed
historical report.
Each instrument, called “Tag”, to be calibrated/inspected is identified by name, model, manufacturer and serial number.
In you calibration procedure you can use external reference instruments (non OMEGA units, or Tc, or Rtd). The software
allows you to define these standard and to include their descriptions on the calibration report.
Calibration procedure can be performed either in automatic mode (Reference and instrument are connected using
RS232) or in manual mode (values entered using keyboard).

1.1 Setup

CalpMan 2000 (CL550-SOFT) runs on IBM PC under WINDOWS 95®. Minimum requirements are a Pentium CPU with

16Mb RAM and 10 Megabyte free on hard disk, Colour monitor and Microsoft mouse or compatible one.
In order to install the package, proceed as follow.

• Place the Calpman 2000 CD-ROM inside the drive on your PC;

Follows the below procedure to install the program:

• From the Windows “Start” Menu, select <RUN>;

• Enter the filename D:\Disk1\SETUP.EXE (substitute the letter D for the disk drive that contains Calpman 2000

CD-ROM);

• Follow on screen instructions making sure to provide the correct path to your Calpman 2000 directory when

prompted.

Once installed, the Calpman 2000 icon will appear on your Windows “Start” button and it will be possible to boot it by
clicking on the icon as usual.

1.2 Manual or Automatic calibration

CalpMan 2000 (CL550-SOFT) is designed to work as a sand alone calibration procedure manager. You can program

your calibration procedures for any instruments you have.
Two different calibration mode are available to match all your needs: Manual or Automatic mode.

§ In manual mode, you can input by keyboard the reference and/or the Tag measured value. This mode can be used

when you have analogic instruments or digital non compatible with OMEGA serial protocol.

§ If you have an OMEGA calibrator (all Unical and MicroCal units are compatible), you can use RS232 serial interface

to program its output or read its input. CalpMan 2000 will communicate directly with the instrument and make your
calibration certificate free from manual input errors.

2 Program architecture

CalpMan 2000 (CL550-SOFT) has a typical Windows structure with a series of menu and options that can be recalled by

clicking on the name, or on the icon which represents the action the user wants to carry out.

All program options are available using the main menu bar. The button functions are the following:

This option allows you to program the calibration procedure. You can input all general
information, instruments used as standards, calibrators used as simulator and as
reader, test points and error limits, Tags.

This option allows you to add, delete, modify all Tag’s information: name,
Manufacturer, model, S/N, and applied calibration procedure.

This option allows you to review and print calibration procedure results database.

This option shows the calibration due date for all Tags. When you calibrate the
instrument, the date will be changed by the software for the new expiration date.

This option allows you to set all information about instruments used as reference in
calibration activities.

This option allows you to edit al header and footer for your calibration reports

2.1 Calibration Procedures

This is the core of CalpMan 2000 (CL550-SOFT). Using this option, you can program all data for a new calibration
procedure.
