5.6 CALIBRATION<br />

File > Calibration<br />

This option will perform a calibration of your CLIO hardware. Please refer to paragraph<br />

3.7 and follow the procedure described.<br />

In order to determine, at any given time, if it is necessary to calibrate CLIO do the<br />

following:<br />

- Let the system warm up<br />

- Proceed to perform the verification described in 3.7.1<br />

- Consequently decide whether or not to calibrate<br />

The result of the measurement may vary in some way from the time we calibrated<br />

because of many small changes in measurement conditions, including changes in the<br />

atmospheric conditions, the season, and the mains voltage.<br />

Note: the CLIO hardware is highly precise and stable and, under normal<br />

operating conditions, does not require frequent calibrations.<br />

Always perform a calibration if:<br />

- CLIO asks for it showing the “System Not Calibrated” message<br />

- You reinstalled CLIO in a different computer<br />

- You installed a software upgrade<br />

5.7 STARTUP OPTIONS AND GLOBAL SETTINGS<br />

You can start <strong>CLIOwin</strong> directly clicking on the cliowin.exe executable that is saved in<br />

the installation directory (usually C:\Program Files\<strong>Audiomatica</strong>\Cliowin 7); you may<br />

also access <strong>CLIOwin</strong> either from Start Menu > Programs > Cliowin 7 or creating a<br />

shortcut on your Desktop.<br />

A second way to run <strong>CLIOwin</strong> is to click on a registered file; in this way you will not only<br />

run the program but also load the file into the appropriate measurement menu.<br />

<strong>CLIOwin</strong> relies, during startup, on a configuration file named cliopci.stp which resides<br />

in the installation directory.<br />

This file is written each time the program ends and saves several settings that will be<br />

reloaded and reconfigure your system.<br />

Among them we find:<br />

- program Options (see 5.4)<br />

- generator output level (see 4.4.2)<br />

- input sensitivity (see 4.4.3)<br />

- phantom power supply state (see 4.4.3)<br />

- autorange state (see 4.4.3)<br />

- microphone settings (see 4.4.4 and 7.4.1)<br />

- CLIOQC Amplifier & SwitchBox settings (see 4.4.5)<br />

- color scheme and other setup settings (see 5.3.6)<br />

- main window state<br />

- multi-meter generator control state (see 7.2.1)<br />

- global reference level (see 7.3.3)<br />

- autoscale state (see 4.4.6)<br />

Note: It is possible to return the system to its initial default state (after<br />

installation) by deleting the cliowin.stp file.<br />
