1 Software presentation The Configurator for Kistock instruments allows to perform two types of operations on devices: Correction only: allows an offset correction and/or a slope correction by giving calibration points. Correction in 1 to 2 points, see the summary table p.14. Adjustment only: allows to adjust the device completely with several setpoints. 2 Means for software use Means adapted for adjusting. Means adapted for device correction: calibration certificate or calibration means. 3 Recommendations Adjustment quality depends on the measurement accuracy of the reference standard. We recommend the use of a standard which has better accuracies than these of the device, and whom deviation measurements compared with national standards are known and considered during measurement. It is important to operate in stable temperature conditions, to perform adjustment in temperature regulated room and to put in these conditions the instrument a few hours before beginning the adjustment. 4 Instructions 4.1 Classes 50, 70 and 120 Kistock Before performing an adjustment or a correction, please respect the following connection procedure: Connect the device in USB to the computer. Launch the Configurator. 4.2 Classes 150, 220 and 320 Kistock Before performing an adjustment or a correction, please respect the following connection procedure: For a measured parameter with an internal channel of the Kistock: Connect the device in USB to the computer. Launch the Configurator. For a measured parameter with a probe: Plug the probe on the Kistock. Connect the device in USB to the computer. Launch the Configurator. Connection: 1- Plug the probe 4 2- Connect the USB cable on the device 3- Connect the USB cable on the computer 4- Launch the software. Instructions
4.3 Get the access code and detect the data logger Connect the instrument according to the previous scheme. Launch the software. The following window opens: When using the software for the first time, it is necessary to enter an access code to get to the adjustment and correction functions. Click on the question mark on the top right. The following window opens: There is an installation code on this window.this code is generated when installing the software on the computer. Note this installation code. Contact KIMO and give this code. KIMO will give you an access code. Once the access code is entered and validated, click on Kistock 2015 button. The following window is displayed: Instructions 5
Click on Detect button. The following window opens: Select the type of Kistock and click on Validate. The following window opens with information about Kistock: 4.4 Get an adjustment key Click on Adjustment button on the left of the window. Click on New code to generate an adjustment key. The software displays a 15-digit code, which will be used to generate an adjustment key. Then there are two possibilities to get a key: Through your distributor: order it from him specifying the operation to be performed: Correction only: gives the possibility to apply an offset correction or a slope correction giving calibration points. Adjustment only: gives the possibility to adjust completely the device with several setpoints. It is possible to combine the two operations when asking for the adjustment key. Through the Partners Gate: Order before to your distributor some credits. It will give you a login and a password to access to the Partners Gate. Use the credits on the Gate. Enter the supplied adjustment code on the Adjustment code field. Select the type of intervention. Click on GO to validate, an adjustment key is generated. 6 Instructions
2 Choose the type of intervention. 1 Enter the 15-digit code. 3 Validate by clicking on GO. 4 Note the generated code. Enter this adjustment key in the Adjustment key field on the software then press the Confirm button. The following window is displayed with the different accessible fields: Instructions 7
4.5 Read the adjustment points This function allows to visualise the countings recorded on the instrument for each setpoint. So, it is possible with this function to check that the signal of the sensitive element has a correct functioning in the required ranges. Required ranges of countings of the instruments on the normal adjustment ranges are the following: for pressure measurements: the counting goes from 35 000 to 50 000 for thermocouple measurements: the counting goes from 38 000 to 42 000 for current measurements: the counting goes from 32 000 to 60 000 for voltage measurements: the counting goes from 32 000 to 60 000 for humidity measurements (stainless steel probe): the counting goes from 28 000 to 33 000 for CO2 measurements: this function is not available. Click on Read adjustment point button. Select the channel. A window opens, indicating the countings of the adjustment points. 4.6 Adjust the instrument In Adjustment part: Select the channel to adjust in the Adjustable channels list. Click on Perform adjustment button. The following window opens: The software displays the first adjusting point. Generate the requested point(s). Modify the value of the point if necessary. Click on OK to go to the following point. When the last point has been validated, the adjustment is completed. 4.7 Correction According to the device type, it is possible to enter one correction by function. Select the channel on which the correction will be applied on the list. Click on Add correction button. It is possible to perform a correction in 1 to 2 points, see the summary table p.14. 4.7.1 One point correction Enter the reference value on the left (1) then the displayed value by the device on the right (2). Click on Confirm the correction. A message is displayed asking to validate the correction to apply. Click on Yes to apply the correction. 8 Instructions
OR Click on No to modify the values. (1) (2) 4.7.2 Two points correction Enter the reference value (high and low) on the left (1) then the displayed value by the device on the right (2). Click on Confirm the correction. A message is displayed asking to validate the correction to apply. (1) Instructions (2) 9
5 Update the firmwares Click on the Update button. The following window opens: Click on Manual or Automatic button. Manual update: retrieve the update file (supplied by Kimo) Automatic update: the software automatically searches for the update file on the Internet. The update starts and the File and Global progress bars fill up. Click on OK when the completed update window is displayed. 10 Update the firmwares
