Safety instructions
Do not connect the Transceiver to other voltage sources than a standard
9 volt battery type 6LR61/PP3
Ensure that the battery is connected correctly.
The Transceiver contains a radio transmitter and receiver which must not
be used where the use of radio transmitters or other electronic devices
is prohibited.
WARNING!
All work related to the EXCOUNT-II´s sensors and the surge arresters
shall be made with disconnected and earthed conductors. Follow all
regulations and rules stated by international or national safety regulations.
Normally, the EXCOUNT-II´s sensors and the surge arresters operate at
a high voltage. Therefore they must be installed in such a way that only
qualified personnel has access to them.

Introduction
EXCOUNT-II is an advanced surge arrester monitor for effectively, reliably
and safety monitoring and recording surges on high voltage electrical
networks.
EXCOUNT-II incorporates a sensor, which is mounted on the surge
arrester, a transceiver, for remote reading and a PC-program (Windows
95/98/2000/ME and NT).
This users manual desribes the functions of EXCOUNT-II to give you total
control over surge monitoring.

Normal maintenance
To achieve the best possible lifetime out of your EXCOUNT-II Transceiver,
avoid exposure to strong sunlight for extended periods, hot temperatures
(over +50 º C), cold temperatures (under -10 º C ) and water (the design is
showerproof but not watertight).
To clean the transceiver use only a damp soft cloth with a mild detergent.

Getting started
First time usage
Open the package and verify that the following items are present together
with this manual:
Transceiver
Data cable (RS232)
CD with software
Familiarize yourself with the above safety instructions.
Fit a new 9 volt battery type 6LR61/PP3.
Press the
button on the front panel and verify that the transceiver
powers up and that the stand-by menu appears.
Press the
button and verify that the transceiver powers down.
Using this manual together with the transceiver and familiarize yourself with
the different menus and how they are used.
Particulary ensure that the date and clock on the Transceiver are set
correctly.
Load the EXCOUNT-II software onto your PC and famliarize yourself with
its use by reading the individual HELP files within each respective section.

Getting started
Administration of Sensors
Fit the sensor to the arrester as described in the installation instructions
supplied with it.
Record the following details as specified in the EXCOUNT-II HELP system
for administration:
station data
arrester data
EXCOUNT-II data
Input this data into the software as described in the HELP system.
IMPORTANT! After installation of a new sensor and input of the administration details, an initial reading must always be made to establish a link
between the administration details in the PC software and the sensor on
site.
Connect the transceiver to the PC via the data cable
Download the sensor’s ID from the EXCOUNT-II software into the Transceiver.
IMPORTANT! Check that the date and time on the Transceiver are correct,
otherwise set them as described in this manual. Note! If this is not done
the date stamp from the sensor will be incorrect.
Before going to site, check the Transceiver’s battery status. If necessary,
install a new battery.
Once at site, individually check that it is possible to make contact with
each sensor. This is most easily done by taking a leakage current measurement as described in this manual. If the sensor is not connected
properly, an error code will be displayed on the Transceiver.
If desired, a full set of measurements can be made for reference and
then transferred to the PC software as described in the HELP system for
Transfer data.

code
Description
Suggested cause and action
01
System error
Turn off the transceiver and re-start. If the error
persists, a serious internal fault has occurred with
the Transceiver. Contact your
EXCOUNT-II service representative.
11
Prohibited action
The user has attempted to do something which is prohibited.
21
Checksum error
An error occurred in the data transmission and the data
has been lost or corrupted. Interference from a nearby
cellular/mobile phone can be a likely cause. Try to re-transmit
the data.
31
EEPROM data read error
The transceiver could not read from the internal EEPROM
memory. Turn off the transceiver and re-start. If the error
persists, contact your EXCOUNT-II service representative.
32
EEPROM data write error
The transceiver could not write to the internal EEPROM
memory. Turn off the transceiver and re-start. If the error
persists, contact your EXCOUNT-II service representative.
41
Low temperature
The ambient temperature is lower than defined in the database for resistive current measurements. (Lowest defined
temperature is -10 º C). Take new measurements at another
time.
42
High temperature
The ambient temperature is higher than defined in the database for resistive current measurements. (Highest defined
temperature is +60 º C). Take new measurements at another
time.
51
Too low field probe current
The system voltage is too low to generate sufficient current in
the field probe in the sensor. Check that the line is correctly
energised.
52
Too high field probe current
The system voltage is too high. Check that the line is correctly energised.

code
Description
Suggested cause and action
61
Low leakage current
The measured leakage current is too low. Check that the line
is correctly energised.
62
High leakage current
The measured leakage current is too high. Check that the line
is correctly energised. If so, try taking another measurement.
If the error persits, the arrester may be suspect.
70
Unstable leakage
current
A stable value for the leakage current cannot be measured.
A likley cause may be an unstable line voltage. Take new
measurements at another time.
80
Sensor not found
The sensor ID was not recognised by any locally present
sensor. Try retransmitting again. If contact still cannot be
established, check:
a) the chosen sensor ID is present at this station
b) the distance to the sensor is not too far (max 60 m, but
can depend on interference from buildings and structures)
c) interference from a cellular/mobile phone
d) battery status to ensure the voltage in the transceiver
battery is not too low
81
Transmission buffer
error
Turn off the transceiver and re-start. If the error persists,
a serious internal fault has occurred with the Transceiver.
Contact your EXCOUNT-II service representative.
82
Connection lost
The sensor recognised it’s ID but the connection was lost
during the transmission. Try re-transmiting again. If the error
persists, check:
a) the distance to the sensor is not too far (max 60m, but
can depend on interference from buildings and structures).
b) interference from a cellular/mobile phone.
c) battery status to ensure the voltage in the transceiver
battery is not too low.
