Recalibrate your probe

This article explains how to recalibrate your temperature measurement probe by performing a temperature measurement job using the BriqSafe app. It is intended for engineers carrying out on-site temperature measurement tasks with Bluetooth thermometers or manual entry.

Required role: Engineer

Perform a Temperature Measurement Job

Use this process to recalibrate your probe by taking fresh temperature readings during a flushing job.

1. Open the relevant temperature job within your visit.
2. Tap Connect Thermometer to pair your Bluetooth thermometer. Alternatively, tap Fill Temperature Manually if you prefer to type in the readings.
3. If using the thermometer, tap Start Measurement and run the water outlet. The live reading will stream and automatically stop when the temperature stabilizes.
4. Repeat the measurement for each required reading at the outlet as specified.
5. If the activity requires it, attach an evidence photo by adding a photo from your device.
6. Tap Complete Job once all readings and evidence have been captured.

Handling Measurement Settings and Connectivity

Understand how the app handles measurement timing and offline conditions during probe recalibration.

1. If the activity type has no stop conditions defined, the app shows Default measurement settings and applies a 2-minute timeout or allows manual reading.
2. If your thermometer goes out of range during the measurement, readings already taken are kept. You can reconnect the thermometer or switch to manual temperature entry to continue.
3. If you lose connectivity on-site, open the visit while online to cache job data beforehand.
4. While offline, a blue offline indicator appears, and you can continue working. Readings, photos, timer progress, and status changes queue locally.
5. When connectivity returns, the app syncs all queued updates automatically in the background.
6. Remember to allow time for syncing after reconnecting before leaving the site.

Understanding Job Completion and Threshold Breaches

Learn what happens after you finish a measurement job with your recalibrated probe readings.

1. Complete the job as usual, even if readings breach the configured temperature thresholds.
2. The server evaluates any threshold breaches after the job is completed.
3. If the breach requires escalation, the app will confirm with the message: Job completed. A case was created for review.
4. Note that no pass or fail status appears on the form during the visit—you must review breach outcomes after completion.
5. If the job was completed offline, confirmation messages and any case creation appear only after your changes sync upon reconnecting.
