Settings - Device Models
This page lists Device Models available to be assigned to individual devices in the database. Each record includes a link to Caliber's Instrument Card, ie. device driver that provides Caliber with necessary data to use the device in a calibration. In general, all tools with floppy disk icon use Caliber to perform the associated task and therefore proper setup of Path to Caliber on Settings - Client page is required to use them.
Caliber may use auxiliary Instrument Cards in procedures for virtual converters, alternative instrument setup, specifications, etc. Such Instrument Cards get imported into the database during procedure creation or procedure import as new Device Model records which may represent the same model as another record or may represent no device at all but are still necessary for Caliber to operate properly. For this reason, newly created Device Models need to be marked as Primary to become assignable in Devices tab. All other records will remain hidden and available only to Caliber.
