SOFTWARE SPECIFICATIONS

GENERAL SPECIFICATIONS
The units are controlled by the CBA WIN™ software through any standard PC computer. The CBA WIN™ software is supplied with the unit at no extra charge.
Two levels of operation: standard & advanced
TRUE computerized circuit breaker analyzer
The software initiates the commands. No external manipulation (switch or button) required to initiate the command. No test plan transfer to the unit required before test.
A SIMPLE CLICK OF THE MOUSE FOR ALL YOUR BREAKER TESTING
Recording and saving of RAW DATA (keep the integrity of the data). No filtering.
COMMUNICATION LINK
The communications between the CBA-32P and the software are done by a high speed (57 600 baud) fiber optic communication link including a RS-232 fiber optic module, a 10 feet fiber optic cable and a power cable (all supplied with the equipment at no extra charge.)
High speed fiber optic link: 57 600 baud
Extra long fiber optic cable available for maximum comfort & security (200 feet)

CALCULATION FUNCTIONS
More than 40 calculation functions are available in the software. The user can apply any of these calculation functions to the recorded signals during the tests.
Also, as it is the RAW DATA which are saved, new calculation functions can be applied to the signals, even months after the tests have been performed.
Dynamic variables per test plan: 8640
Static variables: 2500
Examples of some of the calculation functions: Total travel, velocity, contact wipe, over travel, rebound, Min/Max for currents and displacements, etc.
ADVANCED FEATURES
Easy User configurable tabular report designer module: The user can create its own tabular reports in any language (English, French, Spanish, German, etc.)
User configurable graphic report designer module: The advanced user can create its own graphic reports.
Automatic calculation designer module: The advanced user can create its own calculation functions and calculation files.
Batch testing module: The unit can perform unlimited (thousands of tests if required), automated, long and repetitive sequences of operations (such as close-open) without any operator intervention.
Data processing areas: Those areas are reserved to apply some mathematical functions to a signal. ex : calculation of the derivative of a signal to display the instantaneous velocity of a signal.
