Device Mappings

About Device Mappings

Device Mappings are used to map fields between APM and the calibrator that you want to use for automated calibration.

Note: Both Fluke 754 and Fluke 729 calibrators use common field mappings. Any modifications in the field mappings affect Send and Receive operations on both the devices.

Access a Device Mapping

Procedure

  1. Access the Calibration Admin Preferences page.
  2. In the pane, select Mappings.
    The Mappings workspace appears, displaying a list of supported drivers.
  3. In the Supported Driver column, select the link for the supported driver that you want to access.
    The Mappings workspace for the selected device appears, displaying a list of device mappings.
  4. In the Mapping ID column, select the link for the device mapping that you want to access.
    The datasheet for the device mapping appears.
    Note: As needed, you can modify the values in the available fields, and then select to save your changes.

Create a Device Mapping

Procedure

  1. Access the Calibration Admin Preferences page.
  2. In the pane, select Mappings.
    The Mappings workspace appears, displaying a list of supported drivers.
  3. In the Supported Driver column, select the link for the supported driver that you want to access.
    The Mappings workspace for the selected device appears, displaying a list of device mappings.
  4. In the workspace, select .
    A blank datasheet for the new device mapping appears.
  5. As needed, enter values in the available fields.
  6. In the section, select .
    The device mapping is created.

Map a Family to a Device Mapping

Before You Begin

Procedure

  1. Access the Device Mapping for the required device.
  2. In the Mappings workspace, select the Families tab.
    The Families section appears, displaying a list of APM Families that have been mapped to the device mapping.
  3. In the Select APM Family box, select the family.
  4. Select Save.
    The family is mapped to the device mapping.

Map a Field to a Device Mapping

Before You Begin

Procedure

  1. Access the Device Mapping for the required device.
  2. In the Mappings workspace, select the Fields tab.
    The Fields section appears.
  3. In the Select APM Family box, select the family.
    Note: The Select APM Family box will only contain families that have been mapped to the selected device mapping.
  4. In the Select APM Field box, select the field.
    Note: The Select APM Field box will only contain fields of the family that was selected from the Select APM Family box.
  5. In the Select Calibrator Field box, select the calibrator field.
  6. As needed, select or clear the following check boxes:
    • Is Key: Clear this check box.
    • Is Strategy Dependent : Select this check box if you want the field to be dependent on the Calibration Strategy field in the Calibration Profile datasheet when you create a Calibration Profile.
  7. Select Save.
    The field is mapped to the device mapping.

Map a Strategy to a Device Mapping

Before You Begin

Procedure

  1. Access the Device Mapping for the required device.
  2. In the Mappings workspace, select the Applicable Strategies tab.
    The Applicable Strategies section appears, displaying a list of strategies that have been mapped to the selected device.
    Note: The Select Strategy box will only contain those strategies that are of the same template type as the selected device mapping.
  3. In the Select Strategy box, select the strategy.
  4. Select Save.
    The strategy is mapped to the device mapping.

Delete a Device Mapping

Procedure

  1. Access the Calibration Admin Preferences page.
  2. In the pane, select Mappings.
    The Mappings workspace appears, displaying a list of supported drivers.
  3. In the Supported Driver column, select the link for the supported driver that you want to access.
    The Mappings workspace for the selected device appears, displaying a list of device mappings.
  4. In the row for each device mapping that you want to delete, select the check box.
    Note: You cannot delete a mapping that is used in a Profile Template or a Template Default.

    In the workspace, the button is enabled.

  5. Select .
    The Delete Mappings dialog box appears, asking you to confirm that you want to delete the selected device mapping.
  6. Select Yes.
    The selected device mapping is deleted.
