Baker AWA-IV software overview

Data tab—Nameplate view

The Nameplate view contains the nameplate data for each motor in the database. The first field is Motor ID , which is used by the software to uniquely identify the motor. Values must be entered in the Motor ID and the two motor location fields.

The labels for the location fields are user definable. In the example below, the labels are

Plant and Unit . The default values are Location and Building . If you need to change the field labels, click on the View menu then Options then Changable Labels .

The location and Motor ID fields are required because they are used in the Explore tab to help locate motors. If the enable voltage class feature is used, the Volts Oper (operating voltage) field is also required. Ensure that the proper Winding Config radio button is selected for your motor. This parameter is used elsewhere in the system. All other fields in the

Nameplate view are optional.

NOTE

Many customers have found that filling in all nameplate fields greatly helps with preventive maintenance programs by providing one place where their plant’s motor data is kept. Additionally, motor shop customers often discover that recording complete nameplate information is required when working with their customers’ motors. The information can also help with troubleshooting and support.

The Nameplate view is also used to add new motors, update existing motors, and delete unneeded motors from the database.
