1B/SP1: Digital Multimeter Calibration
- Jack Somppi Jesse Morse
- Garden 2, N Tower
Course will cover basic Digital Multimeter (DMM) functions such as DC, AC and resistance. Attendees will have the opportunity to calibrate these functions on different DMM’s using a Multi-Function Calibrator. The error will be calculated and recorded on a test report per standard calibration practices
3B/SP3: Practical Pressure Calibration
- Kurt Stridinger Scott Crone
- Garden 2, N Tower
Overview of pressure fundamentals including units of pressure, gauge, absolute and differential. analog gauges, pressure sensors, manometers and digital pressure gauges. Utilizing a hydraulic calibrator referenced to a digital pressure gauge, participants will actually calibrate an 800 PSI analog pressure gauge using current calibration laboratory procedures recorded on a test report.
4B/SP4: Temperature Calibration Explained: History, Standards, and How to Build a Complete Solution
- Travis Porter
- Garden 2, N Tower
Explore the evolution of temperature calibration from history to modern standards and learn how to build a complete, compliant solution using heat sources, reference thermometers, and measurement systems. Abstract Details: This session provides a comprehensive introduction to temperature calibration for lab professionals and end users, taking participants from the historical foundations of temperature measurement to today’s modern standards, including ITS-90 and ISO/IEC 17025. Attendees will gain an understanding of key calibration concepts, explore the evolution of calibration techniques, and learn how to build a complete temperature calibration solution—covering heat sources, reference thermometers, and measurement systems. With a practical, step-by-step approach, this training equips participants with the knowledge and confidence to implement reliable, compliant temperature calibrations in real-world laboratory and industrial settings.
5B/SP5: IndySoft Enterprise Asset Manager (IAM) Training Session
- Nick Bates Mitchell Jones
- Garden 2, N Tower
Synopsis: IndySoft will deliver a comprehensive training session designed to help calibration laboratories get the most value from the IndySoft platform. This course highlights the feature sets most frequently praised by end users and demonstrates practical ways to improve daily lab operations, reduce administrative effort, and increase revenue and throughput in your laboratories. Participants will learn how to streamline workflows from intake to invoicing, improve turnaround time performance, reduce data entry errors, and provide faster access to documentation for customers and asset owners. The session includes best-practice recommendations, real-world examples, and time-saving tips that teams can implement immediately. This course will cover: Template & Data Sheet Management for consistent, scalable calibration documentation System-generated automated notifications to improve responsiveness and reduce missed steps Quote-to-Cash Workflow: navigating from quote → work order → invoice efficiently Turnaround Time (TAT) Management for improved throughput and on-time delivery Interval Optimization to reduce unnecessary calibrations and improve asset planning Fast, powerful searching & navigation tips to locate assets and records instantly Data entry error reduction & validation checks to improve quality and compliance Instant access to calibration certificates for customers and asset owners Scalable workflows: from self-service check-in/out to full Out-of-Tolerance (OOT) tracking and management Custom views & dashboards tailored to specific end-user roles and personas By the end of the course, attendees will understand how to apply IndySoft’s most impactful features to optimize operations, increase productivity, and drive measurable business results.
6B/SP6: Introduction to Procedure Development with MET/CAL and CalStudio
- Michael Johnston
- Garden 2, N Tower
This beginner-friendly tutorial introduces the fundamentals of writing calibration procedures in MET/CAL® and CalStudio, covering core commands, Function Select Codes, and hands-on procedure creation to help attendees confidently begin automating calibration workflows. Conference Abstract: This tutorial offers a comprehensive introduction to writing and understanding procedures in MET/CAL, the industry-leading automated calibration software, as well as our new software, CalStudio. Designed for beginners, this session will cover the foundational concepts of the MET/CAL procedure language, including an overview of key commands and how to utilize various Function Select Codes (FSCs). The course will also discuss the current and future features of CalStudio's procedure authoring environment and how to use it to expand procedure coverage more easily than ever. Attendees will learn how to create a basic procedure, step by step, with practical examples. By the end of the tutorial, participants will have the confidence to start building their own calibration procedures and expand their automation skills in calibration labs. Whether you are new to MET/CAL, curious about CalStudio, or looking to refresh your knowledge, this tutorial will provide the essential tools to get started.
