In today’s world of electronic communication and banking, it’s always good to review cybersecurity reminders. Here are eight tips to keep in mind.

Periodically, members will need to update computer systems with EASA's AC Motor Verification & Redesign (ACR) software program installed. The procedure for moving the program to a new computer depends on the version of the currently installed program.

Periódicamente, los miembros deberán actualizar los sistemas informáticos con el programa de software ACR instalado. El procedimiento para mover el programa a una nueva computadora depende de la versión instalada actualmente.

The Version 4 software is a powerful set of tools for members to check the validity of winding data and to redesign windings from concentric-to-lap and for changes in motor performance. A key feature of this latest version of the program is the integration of the MotorDB with the ACRewind program. The availability of both program functions within a common user interface provides more than just convenience. The ability of the programs to share data resources creates new capabilities that the stand-alone version of the program could not.

This EASA software is a valuable interactive training tool ideal for training your novice(s) ... and even experienced winders will learn from it. The CD teaches how to wind in a richly detailed, step-by-step approach which includes narrative, animations and video clips, with tests to assess student comprehension. 

EASA’s AC Motor Verification & Redesign – Version 4 program, released in May, is an easy-to-use update to the prior Version 3, and older Version 2 program. The layout and function of the new program is mimicked from the older Version 2 program, so users can move up to the new program with an easy learning curve.

The AC Motor Verification and Redesign software provides easy verification of either concentric or lap windings, as well as redesigns with changes in poles/speed, horsepower, frequency or voltage. The redesign report with original and new winding data is output as an Adobe Reader (PDF) file and can be printed or saved. The program also allows you to search EASA’s extensive motor winding database.

This version of the EASA Motor Rewind Database software takes a large leap forward with the data that it provides members. Most notably, it now has the ability to connect to a live, ever-expanding online database of more than 250,000 windings. This live database will be continuously monitored, updated and corrected as needed by EASA’s Technical Support Staff.
