SOFTWARE USER MANUAL
3. Introduction
The DS-CAL test board is a calibration device and DSCalibrator is the software used for calibration and
testing of DEWESoft UUT. The calibration system consists of:
● A computer or PC (running DSCalibrator software)
●Multifunction calibrator
●Digital multimeter
●DS-CAL test board
●UUT
●Proper set of cables according to the UUT
In order for a correct operation of your calibration system the procedures described in this manual must
be followed. If you should encounter any problems during the installation and use please feel free to
contact our support team.
3.1. Calibration system equipment support

* - Thermocouple output is not available by the multifunction calibrator.
** - Extended frequency range for AC voltage is not supported by the multifunction calibrator.
*** - Supported AC / DC current output capabilities are too low.
3.1.2.Digital multimeter support
The following digital multimeter models are supported:
●Keysight 34465A
●Agilent 34410A
●Agilent 34401A
3.2. Basic principle
The multifunction calibrator is used for generating signals which are measured by the DEWESoft UUT.
The DSCalibrator software (in cooperation with DEWESoft) records these measurements and also
makes adjustments to the calibration factors stored in the UUT. The DS-CAL test board is used for
distributing the signals to and from the UUT and is controlled by the DSCalibrator software over the CAN
or USB interface. The digital multimeter is used for measuring output voltage or current (for example
the excitation voltage)
