2 MC6 User Manual –Part 1, Introduction

GENERAL

Thank you for buying Beamex MC6 Advanced Field Calibrator and Communica-

tor. Because of its versatile features, it really is "more than a calibrator".

MC6 is one device with five different operational modes: Meter, Calibrator,

Documenting Calibrator, Data Logger and Fieldbus Communicator.

Attention!

Before taking MC6 into use, please read the warnings

available in Appendix.

ABOUT THIS MANUAL

MC6 User Manual is divided into several parts as follows:

Part 1, Introduction discusses general matters.

Part 2, Active Terminals and Connections. Whatever you measure,

generate or simulate, here's how to make the necessary connections.

Part 3, Meter introduces the metering tool, which is handy for making

quick measurements. One measurement at a time.

Part 4, Calibrator. A more versatile tool which allows you to meas-

ure/generate/simulate two things simultaneouslyetc.

Part 5, Documenting Calibrator concentrates on instrument calibration

using the full featured documenting calibrator.

Part 6, Data Logger. Collecting and reviewing

data and transferring logged data to a PC.

Part 7, Communicator. Invoking digital com-

munication with modern instruments.

Part 8, Settings. How to customize MC6 and

what the About window contains.

Part 9, Additional Information. About ad-

vanced tools for, e.g. adding custom pressure

units, connecting external devices etc.
