Documenting Process Calibrator Introduction The Fluke 744 Documenting Process Calibrator (hereafter referred to as the calibrator) is a batterypowered, hand-held instrument that measures and sources electrical and physical parameters, and provides basic HART® communicator functions when used with HART-capable transmitters. Refer to the 744 HART® Mode Users Guide for instructions on how to use the HART communication feature. The calibrator lets you troubleshoot, calibrate, verify, and document your work on process instruments. Calibrator Specifications are at the back of the manual. A summary of the measuring and sourcing functions provided by the calibrator is shown in Table 1. In addition to these functions, the calibrator has the following features: • General features: An analog display to make it easy to read measurements when the input is unstable. A setup option that lets you set the display to English, French, German, Italian, or Spanish. A thermocouple (TC) input/output jack and internal isothermal block with automatic reference-junction temperature compensation. Or, you can manually enter an external temperature reference. The ability to store results for later review. 1

Documenting Process Calibrator
Introduction
The Fluke 744 Documenting Process Calibrator
(hereafter referred to as the calibrator) is a battery-
powered, hand-held instrument that measures and
sources electrical and physical parameters, and
provides basic HART
communicator functions
when used with HART-capable transmitters. Refer
to the
744
HART
Mode Users Guide
for instructions
on how to use the HART communication feature.
The calibrator lets you troubleshoot, calibrate, verify,
and document your work on process instruments.
Calibrator Specifications are at the back of the
manual.
A summary of the measuring and sourcing functions
provided by the calibrator is shown in Table 1. In
addition to these functions, the calibrator has the
following features:
General features:
An analog display to make it easy to read
measurements when the input is unstable.
A setup option that lets you set the display to
English, French, German, Italian, or Spanish.
A thermocouple (TC) input/output jack and
internal isothermal block with automatic
reference-junction temperature compensation.
Or, you can manually enter an external
temperature reference.
The ability to store results for later review.
