5.6 Factory Fingerprint Files
Factory Fingerprint files are used only for CalMaster2.
When a flow meter is manufactured it is tested extensively and calibrated. The calibration verification
results are stored as a fingerprint file that can be obtained from the ABB web site:
http://www.abbregister.com
The advantage of using fingerprint files is that, by comparing the original factory test results with the
CalMaster2 verification, certification can be made to within 1% of the original factory test results. If
fingerprint files are not available, verification is made to within 2%.
A flow meter's fingerprint file needs to be installed once only. It is stored within CalMaster2 IRIS
software database so that it is available whenever a verification is processed for that flow meter.
To install a flow meter's fingerprint file:
1.
Either select 'File | Install Factory File…' or click the
button. The fingerprint files dialog
box appears:
2.
Click 'Install'. A file browser appears, locate the FPxxxxx-x-x.pdr and click 'Open'. The
factory fingerprint file is installed and appears in the list and is now available for verifications
for that flow meter.
Note.
Ensure that the fingerprint is installed before carrying out any field verifications.
Failure to do this produces a 2% certificate.
