Condition report using easycert

[Bradzz]

Hi all
does anyone know if easycert have a user manual.
Trying to add more than 1 DB to a report its not allowing me to input more than1 set of tails and main switch and so on into the report.
i can add extra DB circuits but that’s it so any help would be good.
Cheers.

Would the only way around this be to start another report and go through the rigmoral of observations again and the like.

Try making a 2 way board (for the henly blocks) , then a supply to each DB from there. Hope that helps.

You can't beat the pen and pad method lol

Not when testing a hospital with 18000 circuits like i am, god, i hate amtech, give me easy cert any day.

There is a add DB button on the results page.

I agree easycert is excellent

I hear that farmelectrics, but its to be completed on easycert, im always carrying out the inspection and writting it all down but then have to transfer to easycert, im having to input this additional infomation into observation.
say i have DB1 and DB2 and DB3 and so on,all at the ORIGIN, observations need only be input once and the tick list, is there a way of adding the additional DB infomation like main switch BS and tail sizes along with earth for each board, remebering they are all at the ORIGIN and NOT feeding from a main board

Cheers

When i do results i put main switch in the first row and select its bs no , then i start circuit details below, 1, 2, 3, 4

or sometimes first row main switch, next row rcd 61008 trip times, then start circuits 1,2,3,4,5, then next rcd 61008 trip times then rest of circuits 6,7,8,9,10

The problem is it only allows you to input only 1 set of Meter tails and so on, i understand you can add DB but this only allows Circuit infomation to be inputted and thats it.
If its an addition fed from say the first DB then yes you can add location and stuff but if fed from the origin like DB 1 this does not allow you to just add additional boards, unless you start afresh and go through the obs and tick sheets, it just gets a bit long winded, im just looking for a short cut for when doing the same property

On the tabs number 1 2 3 etc, if you right click on one of the tabs and add a 'Continuation page for an additional supply'.

Would this help?

 

[Bradzz]

Ipod only then i export to office. so no right clicking.

 

[Amp David]

Don't you hold down the command key on apple devices to get the right click options. You did the last time I was on a MAC

 

[Amp David]

Press an hold your finger on the tab for 5 seconds or so, you should get options appearing.

 

[Amp David]

Me again, click on the tab, go to certificate menu the add continuation page. Bobs your uncle

Im using an APP for the IPOD like a IPHONE, NOT a PC.

 

[AndyP]

Ipod version is an app, its different to the program. I have the app and also run the program on a mac but to run it on a mac i have to use parallels and run windows inside my mac to run easycert as they do not support OSX

 

[Amp David]

Im using an APP for the IPOD like a IPHONE, NOT a PC.

So you don't get the layout as per a PC then?

 

[Bradzz]

Nope its not the same.

In this situation I use the PIR report not the domestic EICR report format. When you add a page here you get a different section at the top of the page. Headings like location of Du, designation, fed from, OPD etc. In the scenario I would write in that the board is fed from xyz size tails and a henley block etc.
Does that help at all?
