The catalog in the Meridix Platform lists all the measurement objects and groups that are presented in the system. Administrators can search the catalog to find measurement objects in the system by typing a part of their number or description.

To access the catalog search function go to Catalog->Search in the menu. 

The search presents all measurement objects that match the criteria. For example, a search for "sson" presents all measurement objects that contain that string in their name, such as Bertilsson and Andersson. It can be used to view what group a measurement object belongs to.
