The TIM System software is designed to calibrate up to four instruments at the same time— with only one computer and four TIM Control Centers.

Whether one, two, three,or four instruments are being calibrated, the TIM System ensures that each instrument is fully calibrated and ready to go!

After an instrument has been bump-tested or calibrated, the TIM System immediately displays and prints the results of the bump test or calibration.

The user can set up the system for a bump test or a full calibration. The display on the TCC (TIM Control Center) unit not only shows whether an instrument passed or failed the bump test or calibration, but also displays the results for each sensor.

The TIM System allows password identification, if desired. The password identification maintains identification of individual users, maintains identification

of instrument serial numbers, and records

the user date, time and type of calibration (bump test or full calibration) performed. Passwords are maintained and assigned by the system manager.

were bump-tested or calibrated on the TIM

System. This easy-to-use and easy-to-read report menu is designed with the user in mind. Whether you need a quick reference to any particular instrument and its calibration results, or a complete detailed master report of all instruments, categorized and printed in hard-copy form, the TIM System offers you this capability at your fingertips.

Setup is a snap! In less than 15 minutes, your TIM System is completely operational. All necessary connectors and power connectors are supplied.

And don’t worry…we have designed the software so that it’s easy to install.

This unique feature can be found only in the TIM System. Our unique auto-recognition feature eliminates the need for changing setups between tests. The TIM System will automatically recognize the MSA instrument that is intended to be

calibrated: a Passport, Gasport, Watchman,

FiveStar Alarm, or Orion instrument.  The TIM

System automatically identifies the instrument

serial number and model type, as well as the actual gas sensors installed in the instrument. The TIM System is so advanced that if an instrument is not in proper working condition, it will let you know what is wrong. Beyond simply calibrating a given

instrument, here is what the TIM System’s

"smarts" will do for you:

• Automatically generate test protocol based on instrument sensor configuration.

• Adjust run time for instrument and pump type

to ensure shortest test time.

• Check instrument software and sensor compatibility.

• Notify user if gas for instrument is not assigned to TCC.

• Synchronize date and time of instrument with

personal computer.

• Print computer-generated test receipt.

• Much more.

• Instrument and pump type

• Model number (sensors installed)

• Owner and owner information

• Instrument location

• User comments

• Test results

• Instrument assignment

To ensure that the TIM System can be easily enhanced for years to come, it is designed to operate on a standard IBM-compatible personal computer. Minimum requirements are a Pentium processor, 16 MB RAM, a 30 MB hard drive, and a CD-ROM drive. The software is compatible with all Windows Operating Systems (all data can be downloaded to the network). A computer is required to operate the

system at each local site, but a single computer can run up to four TIM Control Centers.

The TIM System’s data software includes a

user-friendly archive—with both view and print capability—of all calibrations of all instruments that
