Method and system for reproducing an instrument's calibration certificate

Abstract

A method and a system for reproducing a calibration certificate of an electronic instrument having at least one electronic storage means, the method involving separating the calibration certificate data into a first subset of data, which is calibration specific, and a second subset of data, which is document descriptive; defining a set of meta data about the second subset of data; storing the first subset of data and the set of meta data in the instrument's electronic storage means; storing the second subset of data in a computing device separated from the electronic instrument; and reproducing the calibration certificate by uploading the first subset of data and the set of meta data to the computing device and reconstructing the calibration certificate from the uploaded first subset of data set of meta data and the second subset of data.
