4.2 The Bluetooth Serial Adaptor
The long-range (100m) Bluetooth serial adaptor is powered by the Probe and has been paired
with
the Tablet/Laptop supplied with the Universal Insulator Tester.
4.3 Instant Graphical GO/NO-GO Reporting Capability
The Positron Universal Insulator Tester enables an on-site GO/NOGO decision-making capability.
A scan instantly downloaded to the Tablet/Laptop from the Probe is used to get a graphic
representation of the E-field distribution of an insulator showing all defects. A decision for
emergency replacement or establishing safety levels for live-line work can then be made.
During the scanning of an insulator, the Tower Operator manipulates the Insulator Tester with a
hot stick, while the Ground Operator uses the Tablet/Laptop. Once the scan is done, the Ground
Operator can immediately download the data to get the graphic representation of the
distribution of the E-field of the insulator.
Once the Ground Operator has downloaded the data from the Probe and has viewed the graph
of the insulator’s E-field, the Ground Operator can choose to
Accept or Reject the scan using the
Windows-based Insulator Tester software interface installed on the Tablet/Laptop. In either
case, the data in the Probe gathered during the scan will be deleted after download to the
Tablet/Laptop.
