HCMC PC SPECIFICATION SEMI-AUTOMATIC ELECTRICITY METER TEST BENCH 2.2. Meter Test Rack : The meter test rack with capacity for 10 meters each. The test rack is equipped with the following items : A scanning head capable to detect the disk mark without remove the meter cover, or the led of a static meters ( for those static meters with a LED with the following characteristics : 20 milicandela, red spectrum, centered on 630 nanometers ). The scanning head is mounted in moving supporters, designed to facilitate its displacement along the rack to test any meter. Under request, are available scanning heads for infra-red emitters. Error calculators, for individual error display having several functions : - Error calculations. - Tolerance indication system, it display will blink in order to attract the operators attention when the error of the meters is out of the defined tolerance. - Individual reset push button. - Also used in the starting and creeping automatic test. - LED type error display each with sign and three digits with one decimal +/- 00.0 ( with the provided software, it is possible to have on the screen four digits, +/- 00.00 ). 2.3. Testing and control software : The testing procedure is controlled by an easy to manage menu driven software. The software controls practically all the task performed by the test bench. During the execution of attest, it is possible to visualize on the screen, all the measurements taken by the reference standard meter and the multimeter. There are two displays showing all the parameters measured by the standard, on the screen. Pressing a key will show the basic testing information or the general testing information. The most important functions performed by the software are : - Error calculation control ( capacity standard software up to 128 meters ). - Automatic verification of meter registers ( constant ). - Automatic verification of maximum load indicators ( electronics or mechanical ) - Calculation of average error and standard deviation.
