Calibration Template, CMX Records

Calibration Template, CMX records store details about the calibration that must be performed for a specific piece of equipment using CMX software. This topic provides an alphabetical list and description of the fields that exist for the Calibration Template, CMX family. The information in the table reflects the baseline state and behavior of these fields. This list is not comprehensive.

This family is enabled for site filtering, which means that records in this family can be assigned to a specific site, and will then only be accessible to users who are assigned to the same site and have the appropriate license and family privileges. See the Site Filtering section of the documentation for more information on using this feature.
