Calibration, CMX Records

Calibration, CMX record is a type of Calibration record that stores information about the calibration events that you have created manually for calibration profiles of type Calibration Template, CMX or events that you have received from Beamex CMX calibration software. This topic provides an alphabetical list and description of the fields that exist for the Calibration, CMX family. The information in this 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.

Field Data Type Description Behavior and Usage
Ad-Hoc Calibration Boolean

Indicates that the calibration is performed on the equipment that needs to be calibrated outside of its calibration schedule.

For example, suppose a piece of equipment has an annual calibration task in January. If the equipment needs a repair or replacement during the year, after the equipment is repaired or replaced, the equipment should be calibrated. An Ad-Hoc calibration is performed in this scenario.

By default, this check box is cleared. If you select this check box, after you perform the calibration, the associated Calibration Task is not recycled.
