Calibrate

What Calibrate does

Each check records reference against measured across a set of test points, and passes or fails against a tolerance band you define, because tolerance is a property of your application, not of the tool. Across checks it shows a drift trend by comparing earlier readings against later ones, with a status-coloured history chart. The commentary is deliberately descriptive: it tells you the drift is there and does not diagnose why, because a cause suggested by software is a hypothesis someone will stop testing.

• Reference against measured per test point
• Pass or fail from your own tolerance band
• Drift trend across the check history
• Descriptive commentary, never diagnostic

How Calibrate works

1. Define test points and tolerance

   Your reference points and the band that counts as acceptable for your application.

2. Log a check

   Reference against measured at each point, recorded as a dated check.

3. Read pass or fail

   Against your band, per point, so a sensor failing at one end of its range is visible as exactly that.

4. Watch the drift trend

   Earlier checks against later ones. Drift is a direction, and one check cannot show you a direction.

What Calibrate does not do

Calibrate is a manual log: it does not read instruments, ingest live data or connect to anything, so checks are entered by you. It is not a certification or metrological traceability record and should not be presented as one where an accredited process is required. The commentary describes drift and deliberately never diagnoses a cause, because a plausible cause from software is one nobody investigates properly.

Common questions

Does it read my instruments automatically?

No. It is a deliberate manual log. You perform the check and record the readings, which is also what makes the record meaningful.

Why does it not tell me why a sensor drifted?

Because a cause suggested by software is a hypothesis people stop testing. It reports the drift precisely and leaves diagnosis to the engineer, which is where it belongs.

Is this a calibration certificate?

No. It is a tracking log. Where an accredited calibration with metrological traceability is required, this does not substitute for it.
