Using Beamex Sync

Starting the Beamex Sync application

The Beamex Sync application does not start automatically. To start it, open the Windows search utility from the Start menu and type "Beamex Sync" as the search term. Then click on the Beamex Sync to start it.

Sync_ui

When the Beamex Sync application is running, you will see the following icon on the taskbar:

Sync_logo

The following sections explain the different functionalities found in the Beamex Sync application:

Sign in

To sync instruments and results between LOGiCAL or CMX and one of the supported calibrators, you first need to sign in. Click on the top right corner of the application to open the menu, then click Sign in.

Sign in page opens up

Sign_in

Sign in as you do with your Beamex accout.

Select Organization

You will not see this step if you are working with only one organization. If you use more than one organization, you will select the organization next.

The organization cards are marked with either LOGiCAL or Beamex Sync in the top left corner. Please select the organization you want to sychronize your data with.

NOTE!

  • You should use the application's sign in window only to sign in. If you need to do something else, such as resetting your password, you should do it through myBeamex
  • Select a Beamex Sync organization when communicating with Beamex CMX

Synchronization

Synchronization of Instruments created in MC6 family calibrators

You can create instruments in an MC6 family calibrator and synchronize them to LOGiCAL. However, for an instrument to be synchronized, there must be a result associated with the instrument. If no results exist for the instrument you have created in the calibrator, that instrument is not synched to LOGiCAL.

Connect your calibrator and synchronize

Next step is to connect your calibrator (Supported devices).

There are two connection types available: USB and Bluetooth

Note!

  • Only supported Beamex calibrators connected to the computer are listed
  • To connect your MC6 calibrator using Bluetooth, you must first add it as a Bluetooth device on your computer.

When the connection is made between the calibrator and the Beamex Sync application, the calibrator model and serial number become visible in the Connected calibrators view.

Connected calibrator

Click Synchronize to transfer assigned items to the calibrator and/or results to LOGiCAL or CMX.

Note!

If you have an instrument in a mobile device with results and the same instrument is checked out for calibration:

  1. Results are first synced back to LOGiCAL
  2. Instrument is deleted from the mobile device
  3. Instrument details are synced from LOGiCAL to the mobile device.
