Administration of Sensors
Fit the sensor to the arrester as described in the installation instructions
supplied with it.
Record the following details as specied in the EXCOUNT-II HELP system
for administration:
station data
arrester data
EXCOUNT-II data
Input this data into the software as described in the HELP system.
IMPORTANT! After installation of a new sensor and input of the adminis-
tration details, an initial reading must always be made to establish a link
between the administration details in the PC software and the sensor on
site.
Connect the transceiver to the PC via the data cable
Download the sensor’s ID from the EXCOUNT-II software into the Transcei-
ver.
IMPORTANT! Check that the date and time on the Transceiver are correct,
otherwise set them as described in this manual. Note! If this is not done
the date stamp from the sensor will be incorrect.
Before going to site, check the Transceiver’s battery status. If necessary,
install a new battery.
Once at site, individually check that it is possible to make contact with
each sensor. This is most easily done by taking a leakage current mea-
surement as described in this manual. If the sensor is not connected
properly, an error code will be displayed on the Transceiver.
If desired, a full set of measurements can be made for reference and
then transferred to the PC software as described in the HELP system for
Transfer data.
