Baker AWA-IV Software Overview
Test Setup
Three setup windows are used to configure tests: Temperature/Resistance, DC Tests, and Surge Test. Each window is
described below.
Settings and parameters specified in the setup windows define the Test ID. If you want to update parameters for all
motors using the selected Test ID, check the Edit Test ID box before editing test parameters. You can then save your
changes when finished.
Temperature/Resistance Test Setup Window
When one of the temperature or resistance test setup buttons is clicked, the Temperature/Resistance Test setup
window appears. The resistance and temperature test parameters are combined into one window as shown below.
The temperature entry and resistance test can be turned on or off using the enable radio buttons on the left side of
the window.
The temperature entry is used to acquire the motor's temperature (as close as possible to the winding). Some motors
may even have temperature detectors installed, but other methods such as scanning guns can be used to acquire the
motor (winding) temperature. The temperature collected via the external devices is entered manually in this setup
window. Temperature can be entered in degrees Celsius or Fahrenheit.
The temperature acquired at test time is used during testing to adjust coil resistance values per IEEE 118 and
insulation resistance values per IEEE 43/95.
