Question on ELO calibration

[Foobarred1]

When set at, say 1600, is the elo strength of the engine calibrated against a give time control?

For example, say the 1600 strength is calibrated at 5 minutes. That would mean that at a 5 minute time control, you would expect the engine to play similar to a person with a blitz rating of 1600.

So, if we extend the time control to, say 60 minutes, you would expect both the engine and human player to play stronger because of the additional time. Ideally, at 1600, the engine would play similar to a player whose rapid rating is 1600. So, is that true? Or perhaps the engine is exponentially stronger at 1600 because of the additional time?

Thanks!

The calibration takes into account the time used so a 1600 Elo setting will play stronger if it has more time. Elo ratings are not fixed values at any time controls, a 1600 rated player playing tournament chess is going to be stronger than when they play blitz, it is the same with the H15.2 engine for example.
