In the baseline Meridium Enterprise APM database, the Calibration family appears below the root level Event family. Throughout this documentation, we refer to these records and all the records for the families that appear below the Calibration family as Calibration Event records.
The following baseline Calibration Event families are provided and let you store information for a specific type of calibration:
- Calibration, Analog: Stores information for linear or square root calibrations that have a single input signal, a primary output, and an optional secondary output. Examples of analog calibrations include gauges, flow, pressure, and temperature.
- Calibration, Discrete: Stores information for single-switch or dual-switch instruments. Examples of discrete calibrations include flow, level, pressure, temperature, vibration, and position switches.
- Calibration, Analyzer Single Component: Stores information for single component calibrations. Examples of single component analyzer calibrations include calibrating pH, in-situ oxygen, toxic gas, and combustible gas.
- Calibration, Analyzer Multi-Component: Stores information for comparing standard gas values to test results from the analyzer. Examples of multi-component analyzer calibrations include Mass Spectrometers and Process Gas Chromatographs.
- Calibration, Weight Scale: Stores information for weight scale calibrations.
- Calibration, Functional Test: Stores information for functional test calibrations, which allow you to perform custom functional tests on a piece of equipment. An example of an instruction in a functional test is Describe the wires on the piece of equipment.
