Tool Calibration Tracking with Tool Tracker

Tool Calibration Tracking with Tool Tracker

Keep track of every tool your team uses: who has it, where it was last seen, and when it is due for calibration.

In the measureQuick app, calibration lives in the Toolbox. In the mQ Cloud, the whole company's tools and certificates are under ToolTracker. Calibration tracking needs app version 3.6.4 or later. ToolTracker is a Premier Services feature.

Document the certificate in the app

  1. Open the Toolbox in the measureQuick app.
  2. Tap the Photos/Cert icon under your tool.
  3. Toolbox certificate photo screen in the measureQuick app
    Take a photo of the certificate or calibration label.
  4. Set your calibration due date and frequency.

The app reminds you when a tool's calibration is coming due.

The Toolbox is perfect for an individual technician. Owners and service managers can see every tool and certificate across the company in one place:

  1. Sign in at cloud.measurequick.com.
  2. Click ToolTracker in the left-hand menu (under WORK).

The cards across the top show Tools tracked, Seen this week, Users with tools and Never used.

Calibration

The Calibration section lists one row per tool that has a certificate on file, soonest due first. Each row shows:

  • Status: OK, No date (a certificate without a calibration date), or Not in any toolbox.
  • Calibrated and Due dates.
  • Certificate photos: click a thumbnail to open the full-screen viewer, where you can page through photos and zoom in.
  • Edit button: opens Edit calibration.

Click a status chip to filter the list, or switch from All to Needs attention to see only the tools that need action.

Edit calibration

Click the edit button on a row to set:

  • Calibrated on: the date of the last calibration. Leave it blank to clear the date.
  • Recalibrate every: the recalibration interval. "Not specified" means no due date, and the tool is never shown as overdue.
  • Interval start: whether to count the interval from the manufacturer's calibration date.

When a calibration is overdue, a notice also appears in your Inbox (bottom of the left-hand menu).

Tools list and map

The Tools section lists every connected tool with its model and serial number, the phone or tablet it last connected to, the user, its calibration status and when it was last seen. Search by tool, serial or user, and filter by user or time.
