PCA-Link Meter Test Software automates field testing of watthour billing meters by eliminating manual recording, calculation and maintenance of meter test data. Multiple test configurations may be created and saved. Each configuration contains user definable fields that allow the flexibility to customize the content, format and type of data retrieved when testing watthour meters in the field. The ability to view and create links to external database files for automatic look-up and fill-in of information during the testing process further enhances efficiency and reduces the chance of operator error.

Data is stored in either ASCII or .dbf Open Database Compliant format for ease of export to other applications. PCA-Link also serves as a master meter testing database for other Radian field testing products. Meter test results can be uploaded from the RM-110 Automated Comparator or the RM-17 Portable Test System to a PC in the meter shop running PCA-Link making for truly paperless recordkeeping. Data is stored and maintained by the serial number of the meter tested. All tests are time and date stamped for optimum maintenance of meter test records. A fully illustrated operations manual, detailed on-line Help facilities and a user-friendly Windows interface make PCA-Link relatively simple to operate despite its abundance of powerful features.
