Multichoice for Fluke MET/CAL®

Multichoice is an integral part of all our RF & Microwave procedures from Cal Lab Solutions. This tool allows us to create procedures so they can run in an End-To-End Mode (with minimized connections) or in Test-Selection Mode allowing users to choose each test group.

For MET/CAL® versions 7.20SP1 (Editor/Runtime versions 7.20x) and earlier, procedures can only be programmed to ask the operator a Yes or No question. MultiChoice is a MET/CAL® add-on application that allows the programmer to ask the operator a question with a list of possible answers like “What is the serial prefix of the UUT? {1234B-} {2345B-} or {Above 3456A-}.” The user simply selects the correct answer from the list and the result is passed back to the MET/CAL® procedure.

Cal Lab Solutions is licensing MultiChoice to all MET/CAL® users free of charge. You can download a copy of MultiChoice by clicking here  >>Multichoice Download. If you have any questions please contact Sales@CalLabSolutions.com

Update from Fluke Calibration: The MET/CAL® procedure language was updated back on January 11, 2008 to support more than just single Yes/No responses. In all versions later than 7.20SP1 (Editor/Runtime versions 7.20x) support List Box entries. Please see the code below for an example of how to use the built in function in MET/CAL® Editor.

1.001 MATH id = lbNew(“Example List Box”)
1.002 MATH lbText(id, “What is the serial prefix of the UUT?”)
1.003 MATH lbAddV(id, “1234B-“, “SN_1234B”)
1.004 MATH lbAddV(id, “2345B-“, “SN_2345B”)
1.005 MATH lbAddV(id, “Above 3456A”, “SN_above_3456A”)
1.006 MATH lbAddV(id, “Other”, “Other”)
1.007 MATH op = lbShow(id)

1.008 IF SN_1234B
1.009 DISP you selected serial prefix 1234B

1.010 ELSEIF SN_2345B
1.011 DISP You selected serial prefix 2345B

1.012 ELSEIF SN_above_3456A
1.013 DISP You selected serial prefix above 3456A

1.014 ELSE
1.015 DISP You selected Other
1.016 ENDIF
