All tool tests must be entered using the PC Windows based Calibration Program. Once this is done the tests can be
accessed using the "Tool Test" soft key on the PTT.
Entering data for the Tool Test is done using the PC Windows based Calibration Program. See the Screen above.
Select the “Tool Tests” tab. Enter the relevant information on this screen such as the Test Name, which is the name by
which the test will be identified on the PTT. Then enter all required information on the screen because once the tool test
is activated on the PTT no changes can be made with the units, tolerances or other information. There is a field for
comments to include user specific information. The transducer being used for the Tool Test must be identified. This is
done to prevent a test being run on a transducer with an inappropriate range.
When entering the “Sensor Model” this must match with the sensor identification that was used to identify the transducer
when it was calibrated. The case of alphanumeric characters will be ignored. If the transducer to be used for the test is
connected you can click on the "Read" button next to the Sensor Model field and the field will be automatically
populated. If you are not sure about how the transducer is identified, unplug the transducer from the PTT unit and plug it
back in.
Note:
*
the Sensor Model identification appears on the PTT screen during the initialization.
There are various control buttons to perform operations with this program, these include:
Save -
