How our customers use the eCal™ CV-10 Manager for efficient mobile vibration calibration

In industries such as measurement equipment, condition monitoring, R&D, automotive and aviation, our customers rely on fast and consistent mobile testing and vibration calibration in demanding environments. With the eCal™ CV-10 Manager, they can streamline test preparation, data handling and documentation for on-site calibrations, ensuring accurate and traceable results while saving valuable time in the field.

When performing mobile vibration calibrations in the field, efficiency and reliability are just as important as measurement accuracy. The CV-10 mobile calibration system provides flexibility to calibrate sensors wherever they are installed. What truly completes our customers’ workflow is the eCal™ CV-10 Manager module. It transforms mobile calibration, turning a technically demanding task into a structured, predictable and well-documented process.

We asked our customers what they truly value in the eCal™ CV-10 Manager and what are their favorite features.

“eCal™ is more than just a calibration data viewer”

The eCal™ software is more than just a calibration data viewer. For us, it is the central location where calibration data, sensor information and test definitions converge. Whether we are working with laboratory systems such as CS Q-LEAP™ or the CV-10 in the field, eCal™ ensures consistent data handling and professional output formats, including PDF, Excel and XML.

It is the CV-10 Manager module that makes this ecosystem truly usable for mobile work. It enables us to prepare tests in the office, centrally manage sensors and seamlessly transfer everything to the CV-10.

“The small benefits that make every day easier” - Top features according to our customers

When we ask our customers which feature of the eCal™ CV-10 Manager they value most in their daily calibration workflow, the answer is clear: it’s not just one function, but the way the software simplifies, secures and structures their entire process.

1. Network-based connection instead of manual data handling
   Connecting to the CV-10 via a network is a major improvement compared to traditional USB data handling. By connecting directly via the network, we no longer need to manually transfer files, which saves valuable time and significantly improves our data security. The risk of working with lost, outdated, or incorrectly stored files is virtually eliminated!
2. Clear test and sensor editors
   We really like the clarity and usability of the test and sensor editors: the intuitive structure and the fact that we can work with standardized templates. We can create and adapt test setups quickly, while maintaining consistent calibration procedures across different teams and locations. This is an essential factor for quality and efficiency.
3. Full transparency of device status
   Before leaving for an on-site job, we can quickly check battery level, storage capacity, firmware status and our active licenses directly in eCal™. With this clear overview, our team can prepare with confidence and avoid unpleasant surprises in the field.
4. Structured file management
   We work with large numbers of sensors and perform repeat calibrations. Calibration data is automatically organized and easy to retrieve. This reduces manual effort and minimizes the likelihood of errors. This is a real game changer for us!
5. Future-proof by design
   As the CV-10 Manager is part of the wider eCal™ ecosystem, we know that it will grow alongside our needs. The ability to integrate additional SPEKTRA systems and future workflow enhancements gives us confidence in our investment.

SPEKTRA eCal™ is not just a viewer — it’s a bridge between field workflows and digital calibration data management. With support for multiple output formats and ongoing expansion into post-processing functions such as signing and document storage, it’s designed to grow with your calibration ecosystem.

Mobile calibration workflows, made easy

The CV-10 itself is ideal for fieldwork: it is compact, battery-powered and traceable to national standards such as PTB and NIST. What eCal™ adds is workflow efficiency. Test preparation, data transfer and documentation are no longer separate steps — they form part of a single, integrated digital process.

“Ultimately, this allows us to focus on what really matters: accurate measurements and reliable results delivered on time.”

5 proven tips from our users to streamline your calibration workflow

Drawing on hands-on experience, our customers reveal five best practices that help them work smarter and more efficiently with the eCal™ CV-10 Manager in their daily calibration tasks.
