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.
