A PC based software program (called Software Tools) provides an on-
line database record for storing measurement data. Site Master Soft-
ware Tools can also convert the Site Master display to a Microsoft
Windows 95 or Windows 3.x graphic. Measurements stored in the Site
Master internal memory are down-loaded to the PC using the included
serial cable. This null-modem serial cable connects between the Serial
Interface connector on the Site Master and a Com Port on a DOS/
Windows-based PC. Once stored, the graphic trace can then be dis-
played, scaled, and/or enhanced with markers and limit lines. Historical
graphs can be overlaid with current data by using the PC’s mouse in
“drag-n-drop” fashion. The underlying data can be extracted and used
in spreadsheets or for other analytical tasks.
The Software Tools program also performs DTF (Distance To Fault) or
Fault Location and Smith Chart by clicking on the appropriate icon.
