Error and Status Messages

No instruments are available for association!

You tried to create an instrument icon from the Available Instruments list when there were no instruments listed.

Instruments on the network are either shown as icons on the Icon Bar or are listed on the Available Instruments list. Adding a new instrument to the network and Icon Bar is a 2-step process. First, you add the instrument to the Communications Configuration File, where all the network parameters are saved (select the Communications Config command from the Setup menu). The new instrument appears on the Available Instruments list. Second, you create an instrument icon (select the Create Instrument Icon command from the Setup menu) by selecting the instrument from the Available Instruments list. When an instrument is placed on the Icon Bar, it is removed from the Available Instruments list. When an instrument is removed from the Icon Bar, it is returned to the Available Instruments list.

No timers available! Close another application and try again!

Windows timer resources have been exceeded.

Close other applications to free Windows timers and continue operations.

Not responding to command!

Your instrument has detected a fault during internal performance monitoring.

This message does not appear under normal operating conditions. Note the message and click Yes to continue operations or No to terminate operations. If the fault recurs, stop operations, and cycle instrument power. If the fault still persists, remove the instrument from service and return it to a Fluke Service Center for repair, along with a description of the error message.

Only [Number] bytes free disk space remain on [Drive] for Trend Link data!

You are logging to a Trend Link file and the minimum Low Disk Space amount has been reached.

When you are logging to a Trend Link data file, NetDAQ Logger periodically checks for available disk space. When this space reaches the value set in the Auto Rollover dialog box, this warning is displayed and a rollover of the Data Set file automatically takes place. To change the disk space default value (1000 k bytes), refer to Low Disk Space for Trend Link section of the Auto Rollover dialog box.

2645A, 2640A specifications

The Fluke 2640A and 2645A are advanced bench multimeters that represent a significant leap in measurement technology, designed primarily for electrical engineers and technicians who require precision and reliability in their readings. These multimeters are built to cater to complex applications in manufacturing, research, and development.

One of the standout features of the Fluke 2640A and 2645A is their high accuracy. With specifications that can reach up to 0.0035% DC Voltage accuracy, users can trust that their measurements will be consistent and precise. This is especially critical in fields like automated test equipment (ATE) where exact measurements can be crucial for product quality and safety.

Both models incorporate a large, easy-to-read display, making it convenient for users to view measurement results clearly from a distance. They also feature a wide measurement range, capable of handling a variety of tasks, from basic voltage and current measurements to more complex tasks such as resistance and temperature measurements with appropriate sensors.

The multimeters also stand out with their advanced data logging capabilities. The Fluke 2645A, for instance, can store up to 10,000 readings, allowing for extensive data collection and analysis without the need for constant monitoring. This is beneficial for long-term studies or processes that require continual oversight.

Connectivity is another key characteristic. Both the 2640A and 2645A support USB and RS-232 interfaces, which enable easy integration with computers and other devices for seamless data transfer. This feature is important for engineers who rely on software for data analysis and visualization.

Another notable technology included in these models is the Fluke Connect app compatibility, which allows users to remotely monitor measurements from their smartphones or tablets. This capability provides added flexibility, enabling technicians to work hands-free while still keeping an eye on process measurements.

Additionally, the Fluke 2645A comes with a graphical display option, allowing users to visualize measurement trends over time. This graphical representation can be invaluable for diagnosing issues or observing patterns in data.

In conclusion, the Fluke 2640A and 2645A multimeters offer exceptional performance with their high accuracy, extensive data logging, connectivity options, and advanced visualization capabilities. These features make them indispensable tools for professionals in a variety of fields, ensuring that they can achieve reliable results in their measurement endeavors.
