FastCalXP Operation Manual

Autodetection

FastCalXP automatically detects Crystal Engineering’s nVision Reference Recorders, XP2i (XP2) digital pressure gauges and 30 Series calibrators. Once the

gauge and the reference have been mounted on the GaugeCalHP and the serial or USB cable has been connected to the reference and the computer’s ap-

propriate port, the autodetection and calibration can proceed. Calibration of a smart transmitter with a HART modem requires that the HART modem be

connected to the computer and the HART modem leads be connected to the power leads of the transmitter. Refer to the

Hardware Setup and Connections

section

and to the

GaugeCalHP Operation Manual

for help with confi guring your calibration work station.

To Automatically Detect a New or Previously Used Reference

1

Turn the reference on and click the

Perform New As Received Cal button

or the

Perform As Left Cal button

.

FastCalXP will take a few seconds to detect the reference. When a new reference has been detected it can be added to the database and the current calibra-

tion certifi cate information must be entered by the operator.

2

Enter the

Latest calibration certifi cate number

and the date on which that

Certifi cate expires.

If the auto-detected reference exists in the database, FastCalXP will proceed to the Exercise Window or to the Calibration Window.

If the reference is not automatically detected refer to the

Frequently Asked Questions

.
