Supernova / Europa PAT Testers
Note
If your PDA does not have an RS232 serial port you will need a Bluetooth SNEU Adaptor (see
Accessories) to communicate with these testers. If this is the case the Bluetooth SNEU Adaptor will need
to be paired or partnered with the PDA (see Using Bluetooth) before the first Upload or Download
action. Also if the default Baud Rate has been changed on the tester (and on the PATGuard program) it
must be changed back to 9600 as this is the necessary Baud Rate for the Bluetooth SNEU Adaptor.
If using a Bluetooth SNEU Adaptor, plug the Adaptor into the Serial Port of the tester. The Adaptor,
when used with Europa PAT testers will require external power. Connect the power lead to the Adaptor
and plug the power supply into a suitable mains outlet. Adaptors used with Supernova testers do not
require any external power. Ensure the tester is powered up.
Ensure the Prime Test box is unchecked. It may be necessary to set the correct COM Port before the
first Download (see Using Bluetooth). Once set the program will remember this port number until
changed by the user.
On the Main Menu of the tester select DOWNLOAD RESULTS. Ensure the following are set on the
Download screen:
Destination is set to PC
Baud Rate is 9600
Download Format set to SSS.
Select OK.
On the Search screen set search criteria or leave default (for all results).
Select Download on the Download display of the PDA. Then select Search on the tester.
The Byte received value should count up on the PDA as the download proceeds.
