Caltool for Analog is only used with molbox's that have the MFC option installed or a separate MFC-CB. It will walk you through the process to calibrate the voltage and current readings used when testing MFMs/MFCs. This calibration would normally be done by us when sending in your molbox for calibration, so this is typically only needed by customers who calibrate their molbox's in house.

 


If you have one of these products, locate the calibration cable that was shipped with the product and
obtain a proper DMM for the calibration.

Install and run the Caltool for Analog program to perform the calibration:

  1. Use this link below to install the original v1.00 software https://us.flukecal.com/literature/software-downloads/free-utilities/caltool-analog-free-utility
  2. The software must manually be updated to later v1.1
      1.  Under C:\Program Files (x86)\CalTool for Analog delete the installed "CLTANALG.EXE" and copy in the "Caltool for Analog.exe" that is attached to this article.  mceclip0.png
      2.  The install also created a shortcut on your desktop linked to the old .exe file.  Delete this shortcut:                                                                                                                                          mceclip1.png 
      3. Create a new shortcut for the Caltool for Analog.exe mceclip3.png mceclip4.png
      4. Follow the instructions on the webpage for the download and in the Caltool for Analog help menu to walk you through the calibration process.
      5. This step is likely not necessary, but if you receive an "ActiveX can't create object" error message download the "COMPIO.EXE" file that is attached to this article and double click on it to register it and this should resolve the issue.
      6. See note below in red regarding one of the instruction screens being wrong.

 

Below are a couple screenshots that show the software and an important correction for one of its instructions:

MFC Option/Board Replacement:

The molbox1+ MFC Option board is user replaceable if willing to take on this task yourself. Inside the Molbox it sits on top of the other boards so it is easy to access. It can be damaged if an MFC pinout is improperly connected.
