N LINE NALYSIS VIA A ATABASE
The AT Server software can store test results in an electronic database. This
provides a very powerful and versatile method of recording and analysing test
results historically or on-line. The Server uses standard Windows methods
(including OLE DB and ODBC) to connect to a variety of databases that
conform to these specifications.
Once stored in a database the data may then be analysed using tools
available in the database application or tools provided by specialist software
packages such as those available for SPC (Statistical Process Control). One
example of this is to monitor in real time the trend in a winding resistance to
identify a defective drum of copper. You would then be able to rectify the fault
during production rather than producing a large stock of QA failed transformers
all wound with the defective wire.
Setting Up Database Results Storage
From the 'Set-up' menu, select 'Results' to see the following dialogue:
Select 'Database Results Saving' to save results to a database. For this
feature to operate properly a connection to the database must be set up first
and a licence for use must be obtained from your Voltech supplier.
All results formats can be saved simultaneously.
