1586A Users Manual Automated Test Overview The Product has an automated test feature that works directly with an external temperature source (the source) to calibrate and verify the performance of temperature probes (UUT) against a calibrated reference probe. To fully automate the test, the user can connect to and control a temperature source such as dry-wells, microbaths, or fluid baths from Fluke Calibration. In this configuration, the Product communicates the setpoint to the source via the RS-232 connection on the rear panel (see Figure 4-7). The source is then activated and sets the temperature to the setpoint. When the measurement from the reference temperature probe that is wired to the Product meets all the parameters of the setpoint (tolerance, stability, and soak time), the Product automatically communicates the next setpoint. This sequence repeats until all setpoints are complete. Note The Automated Test has a Control Source setting that can be toggled to On or Off. When Off, the operator must manually set the temperature on the source. Temperature Source Control Output Reference Probe UUT Figure 4-7.

Automated Test
Overview
The Product has an automated test feature that works directly with an external
temperature source (the source) to calibrate and verify the performance of temperature
probes (UUT) against a calibrated reference probe.
To fully automate the test, the user can connect to and control a temperature source such
as dry-wells, microbaths, or fluid baths from Fluke Calibration. In this configuration, the
Product communicates the setpoint to the source via the RS-232 connection on the rear
panel (see Figure 4-7). The source is then activated and sets the temperature to the
setpoint. When the measurement from the reference temperature probe that is wired to the
Product meets all the parameters of the setpoint (tolerance, stability, and soak time), the
Product automatically communicates the next setpoint. This sequence repeats until all
setpoints are complete.
Note
The Automated Test has a Control Source setting that can be toggled to On
or Off. When Off, the operator must manually set the temperature on the
source.
