Megger PAT4DV/3 - Printing Reports and Results

To Previous Page

A variety of reports are available for printing directly from the PAT4, providing the advantages of hard copy output on site. PAT4 permits the printing of

the following range of reports:

• Client List • Location List

• Plain Asset List † • Assets with Current Results (Certificate of Test) †

• Retro report • Groups

• Assets with Due dates for testing †

All reports are printed directly from the

PAT4 using the parallel printer connector on the front panel.

† The asset and results reports indicated list the assets and results that relate to the current Client and Location.

The ‘Retro’ report produces a report which is compatible with the data which may be downloaded into “Shire’s” ‘Safety First’, ‘Safety First+’ packages.

However it must be remembered that the output for this report selection will appear on the parallel output of the PAT4. The above software packages

can only receive data via a PC serial port. It will therefore be necessary to pass the data through a parallel to serial converter, if you wish to download

from the

PAT4 to any of these packages. These are readily available at low cost from many sources.
