Model 5 Prover Software Manual
In the Show Report box, scroll through the various search criteria using the up/down arrow button.
• All Reports - lists all the test reports in the selected folder.
• By Date - enables you to locate files generated between two dates. Enter start date
[From (MM/DD)] and end date [To (MM/DD)] to narrow search to a certain time period.
• By Value - The files will be classified by one of the named fields on the test report
(i.e. Location, Operators Name, Master Meter Type, etc.).
The entry for ‘Value’ is not case sensitive and the search uses an automatic wildcard at the end of the
entry. Therefore, a full entry description is not usually required. Example: to search for LMM Gas Co.
using the "Customer Name" query, the correct files will be found by entering the partial description
“LMM”.
The buttons along the bottom of the Report Manager Screen provide a variety of functions by which you may
handle the meter test data:
Software Version 5.31 and above - printer settings permits you to change margins and fonts
for printed reports.
• Printer Settings – Where you change margins and font settings used when printing test reports.
Changing these Settings could adversely affect your printed report. Please use caution.
• Update List – When searching for test reports it sometimes becomes necessary to use
limiting parameters to focus the search. If these parameters are used, once the search
criterion has been input, select <Update List> and the list will be reevaluated using the new
criteria. “Update List” will also update the names under the “Where” search criteria if
changed under the “Edit Names” option.
• Print Report – This option will print the selected report.
• View Report – Once you select a report, you can view it using this option.
• Edit Names - This button will bring up the Report Customization subroutine. In this mode, you
can modify all the headings for the report generation categories. Click on the ‘Save’ button
after each and every change before selecting the ‘Close’ button to implement the changes. If you
make multiple changes and press the Save button after the last change, only that last change will
be saved. Note: If you change any of the names in the Edit Names subroutine, use Update
List to update the names under the “Where” pull down menu.
For example, the default heading “Operator’s Name or ID” can be modified to read “Prover Technician”
on the test report.
If you select the “Close” button before the “Save” button, no changes will be implemented in the
“Edit Names” subroutine.
