Measurement

The ONEOF® Accuracy app offers two types of measurements:

  1. Free measurement: you decide on the measurement duration and test positions.
  2. Predefined test sequence: you create your own test sequence, and the app runs the sequence according to your duration, position and loop choices.

To facilitate the watchmakers’ needs of seamlessly transitioning between free measurements for precision adjustment and test sequences for result control, the app provides a smooth and convenient switch between both types.

Free measurement

Unless you are conducting a sequence test, the free measurement mode is continuously active, eliminating the need for a start/stop button.
Once you place a watch on the sensor, the measurement automatically begins. To stop the measurement, simply remove the watch from the sensor.
It’s important to note that the results will remain displayed until a new watch is placed on the sensor.

While a measurement is in progress, you have the flexibility to modify the watch’s position, explore the various features and options within the app, and adjust measurement parameters according to your requirements. Additionally, you can save the measurement in the database whenever desired.
If you choose to save the same measurement multiple times, the database will update the existing record instead of creating a new entry. This ensures that the database remains organized and avoids redundancy in your saved measurements.

Free measurement

Sequence

A sequence is a series of actions that the sensor automatically performs in the chronological order you define. The actions and their parameters may vary from product to product, but they typically include the test position, the duration for which the sensor remains in that position, and whether the sensor should measure or if it’s a pause (no measurement).

The user interface for creating a sequence has been designed to be as simple, user-friendly, and comprehensive as possible. Actions can be added, duplicated, rearranged, grouped, modified, or deleted with just a few manipulations.

Sequence example

Parameters

Introduction

In acoustic measurements, the concept of measurement parameters is crucial and indispensable: a measurement cannot be performed without associated measurement parameters.

During the initial use, a default set of parameters is utilized. It enables you to conduct reliable measurements in the vast majority of cases. Depending on the type of watch, caliber, your watchmaking skills, and your specific requirements, you can create a comprehensive list of parameter sets.

In order to be as flexible and consistent as possible, the concept we have implemented regarding the management of measurement parameters is as follows:

  • A measurement always requires at least one parameter set. The parameter set is therefore the master.
  • Optionally, you can create and add a criteria set to a parameter set.
  • Optionally, you can create and add a sequence to a parameter set.
  • Optionally, you can create and add a measurement results folder to a parameter set.

This principle can be illustrated as follows:

Parameters concept chart

This principle offers the advantage of minimizing the number of parameter sets, criteria sets, sequences, or result folders to create and manage.
A concrete example: if you have 5 different watches, all COSC certified, and you want to perform a 1-minute sequence for each standard position, you only need to create a single COSC criteria set and a single sequence. You can then assign them to one or multiple parameter sets based on the watch type.

Create

You can create as many parameter sets as you want from the “Parameters” view. To create a parameter set, follow these steps:

  1. Go to the “Parameters” view.
  2. Tap the “Parameters” tab.
  3. Add a new parameter set and give it a name.
  4. Adjust the parameter values.
  5. Tap “Done” to save your parameter set.

Create a parameter set

Usage

To utilize a particular parameter set for your measurement (free measurement or sequence), follow these steps:

  1. Go to the “Accuracy” view.
  2. Tap the settings icon at the top left corner.
  3. In the parameter set sidebar, tap the “name” area.
  4. Select your parameter set from the list.
  5. Swipe left or tap the settings icon to hide the sidebar.

Use a parameter set

Adjust

During a measurement, whether it’s a free measurement or a sequence, you have the flexibility to adjust any parameter within the parameter set, and it will immediately impact the ongoing measurement. In the “Accuracy” view, simply tap the settings icon located at the top left corner to reveal the parameter sidebar sliding in from the right. To hide the sidebar, tap the icon again or swipe left, and the parameter sidebar will smoothly slide back to the left.
Note: Modifying any parameter during a measurement does not alter the parameter set stored in your database. Instead, it creates a “custom” version of the parameter set specifically for the current measurement.

Parameter sidebar

Sequences

Create

You can create as many sequences as you want from the “Parameters” view. To create a sequence, follow these steps:

  1. Go to the “Parameters” view.

  1. Go to the “Accuracy” view.
  2. Swipe left on the control menu.
  3. Ensure that the “Sequence” control is selected.
  4. Tap the “play” icon.

A popup message will ask you if you agree to stop the current free measurement.

  1. Tap “Ok” to confirm.

The sequence will start playing.

Note: If you tap the “Play” button and no sequence is added to the parameter set, the list of your sequences will appear. Selecting from here, the sequence will be automatically added to the current parameter set.

Criteria

The “Criteria” page gathers all the features related to the display of results, mainly in the multi-position table. It includes the positions you want to display and the tolerances for the results. If a measurement result falls outside these tolerances, it will be displayed in red.

The tolerances can be adjusted for rate, amplitude, and positional error, as well as their respective average, standard deviation, and delta, for horizontal and vertical positions separately.

Note: When a sequence is completed, if a criteria set is defined in your parameter set and the results fall outside the specified tolerances, the status bar will be displayed in red. If the results are within the tolerances, the status bar will be displayed in green.

Results without criteria set

Results with criteria set

Create

You can create as many sets of criteria as you want from the “Parameters” view. To create a criteria set, follow these steps:

  1. Go to the “Parameters” view.
  2. Select the “Criteria” tab.
  3. Add a new criteria set and give it a name.
  4. Specify the positions to display and set the tolerance values.
  5. Tap “Done” to save your criteria set.

Create a criteria set

Usage

A criteria set can be added to one or multiple parameter sets. This means that you can create a single criteria set and use it for different calibers that require different measurement parameters.
To add a criteria set to a parameter set, follow these steps:

  1. Go to the “Parameters” view.
  2. Select the “Parameters” tab.
  3. Tap on the parameter set that you want to modify.

Results

On the “Results” page, you can create your folders and save all your measurements. Generally, our users create one folder per watch, but you can also save measurement results for multiple watches in a single folder. In that case, it is important to name the fields of the result folder according to your needs.

Create

You can create as many results folders as you want from the “Results” view. To create a results folder, follow these steps:

  1. Go to the “Results” view.
  2. Create a new results folder.
  3. Select or capture up to six different pictures.
  4. Provide information such as the Type, Name, Brand, Series, Caliber, Reference, Purchase Date, and Next Service Date.
  5. Tap “Done” to save your results folder.

Usage

If your results folder is not specific to a particular watch or movement, you can add it to one or multiple parameter sets. This allows you to use a single results folder for different calibers that require different measurement parameters.
To add a results folder to a parameter set, follow these steps:

  1. Go to the “Parameters” view.
  2. Select the “Parameters” tab.
  3. Tap on the parameter set you want to modify.
  4. Tap the “Edit” button.
  5. Scroll down to the results section.
  6. Tap the “Name” field.
  7. Select your results folder from the list.
  8. Tap the “Done” button.

Save

You have the flexibility to save a measurement at any point during an ongoing measurement, even when the watch is removed and no other measurement is initiated.
If you decide to save the same measurement multiple times, the database will update the existing record rather than creating duplicate entries. This helps maintain an organized database and avoids redundancy in your saved measurements.
Additionally, you can modify the results folder of your parameter set while a measurement is in progress. The measurement results will be automatically moved to the newly selected results folder the next time you save the measurement.
You also have the option to enable automatic saving of your measurements by using the “Auto Save” button in your parameter sets. When activated, your measurement will be automatically saved every 30 seconds, and a final save will occur at the end of the measurement. This feature ensures that your progress is consistently recorded and minimizes the risk of losing any data.

Save a measurement

Export

You have the option to export your measurement results either from a saved measurement or during an ongoing measurement. There are two export options available:

  1. A CSV file containing raw measurement data recorded every second (see example).
  2. A comprehensive PDF report providing detailed information (see example).

Both the CSV file and the PDF report can be easily shared using the built-in iOS sharing options.
