RELEASE NOTES

 

Product name: Metrel Electrical Safety Manager

Product type: PC SW Application

Version: 1.23.0.1115

Release date: 28.2.2024

 

 

DESCRIPTION OF THE RELEASED PRODUCT:

Metrel Electrical Safety Manager – a common application for the management of the new generation of Metrel’s instruments.

 

With this application the wide palette of Metrel’s electrical safety testers, portable appliance testers, machine testers and industrial safety testers can be now managed by one single application. This application has a unified user interface with the new generation of Metrel’s instruments – same view same meaning. It enables the pre-treatment for the related measurements, viewing and editing of the measurement results and generation of various professional reports. Depending on the model or type of the target instrument the user can create AUTO SEQUENCE® tests, custom tests or single tests. They can be integrated into the custom created test structures and then uploaded into the measurement instrument.

The downloaded measurement results can be viewed, analysed, edited and finally a professional report can be created and printed. These professional reports are based on predefined templates according to the national standards or the rules of regulatory organisations where the user enters all the needed protocol data while the measurement results are automatically inserted into the predefined forms.

 

This application is fully compatible with the new generation of Metrel’s multifunction testers, starting with CE MultitesterXA and EurotestXC. With limited functionality some of the predecessor models like EurotestXE or EurotestCombo are also supported.
