IMET - A SECURE AND FLEXIBLE APPROACH TO INTERNET-ENABLED CALIBRATION AT JUSTERVESENET

Justervesenet, the Norwegian Metrology Service, has an ongoing project aiming to create a general, secure, and distributed instrument control system using the Internet as a transport medium for control signals and results. The iMet system is presented here, where an operator may control multiple electrical instruments via the Internet regardless of the location of the instruments. The system will initially be used in an Internet-enabled calibration service, where Justervesenet sends a transfer normal to a customer and then controls the calibration of the Unit-Under-Test directly in the customer's laboratory.
