Chapter 9. The Qualification Study
9.1 Introduction
Once the setup is defined and loaded into the Kaye Validator AVS and the sensors are calibrated
everything is ready to run a qualification study.
The Kaye Validator AVS uses the qualification parameters defined in the setup to perform the
qualification study. Depending on the start and stop qualification conditions and the start and
stop exposure conditions defined the study performs a fully automatic qualification, a fully
manual qualification, or a mixture of automatic and manual. For example, in the setup could
be specified that the qualification study starts manually, exposure starts automatically when a
contact closes, exposure ends automatically when the contact opens, and qualification ends
manually.
During the qualification study, the Kaye Validator AVS performs calculations and compiles
data for the qualification reports. Qualification data is always written to the Kaye Validator
AVS internal memory.
The Kaye Validator AVS provides 32GB of internal memory to maintain qualification data
during a study. Once study is complete and stop qualification is executed the study data is
saved into Validator AVS memory. Qualification data resides in the internal memory until it
is transferred to the console.
The Kaye Validator AVS is also equipped with a lithium ion backup battery to provide short-
term power in case of AC power loss during the run. The intent of the battery is to provide
sufficient time (approximately 180 minutes) so that you can perform an orderly shutdown of
the system. When the Kaye Validator AVS detects that the AC power has failed and the system
is running from battery, it display indication on front panel LED. When
the
battery has
approximately six minutes of power remaining, the Kaye Validator AVS stops collecting data
and closes its data files.
