Pat testing software for Seaward old Supernova EX

[DaveyD]

Hi all

Does anyone know of any software to download the results without all the bells and the annual cost of the PatGuard 3. We seldom do pat testing, but it would be good to drop into excel or something.
thanks in advance.
David.

I wrote some software a while ago to download the data from the Supernova. It's quite basic but it will do the job. You can grab a copy Here You will need the serial lead that comes with the Supernova (it's not a standard RS-232) and possibly a USB to serial interface lead.

If you need the wiring for the Supernova lead let me know and I'll see if I can find it for you.

Amazing. Thanks. Will let you know how I get on.

Thanks again. I have the USB to RS232 but not the right RS232 lead. Looking on amazon. Do you know what the pins should be? TIA

Wiring is shown below ( I hope!!)

There's a company selling the leads ready made for £9.99 on ebay. LINK

Amazing. Thanks. Will let you know how I get on.

Did you give it a try? I know it's a bit basic but I'm looking for suggestions for improvements. A graphic interface is planned.
If anyone else has tried it and have any suggestions I would welcome them

I know I've posted this in another thread but it fits here too.
Yet another update to the Seaward Supernova download program. I've added a new download format. You can now create a file with your company details at the top and a list of tested devices, their location, pass/fail etc. Download from the same link HERE
