IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT PROTECTING YOUR PERSONAL
CALCULATION DATA
Save your file "UserPOWERData.mdb" regularly to another safe place
(e.g. network drive, diskette, etc.). Maybe your IT support assists you to
implement an automatic backup process for this file.
ALL YOUR CALCULATION DATA IS STORED IN THIS FILE!

Without a change made by you, you will find the file in the program path:
C:\Habasit\POWERSeleCalc\

Exchanging your Computer


When you exchange your PC, use the standard installation for the SeleCalc program
and copy the file "UserPOWERData.mdb" to the mentioned folder on the new PC,
replacing the file installed by the standard installation. After starting the program and
having entered the new personal key you'll find your former calculations in the tool.

1. Introduction
POWER-SeleCalc (created by Habasit) is an engineering program to analyze the
resulting forces in the belt and the equipment and to check whether the effective
tensile force of a belt is not higher than the admissible tensile force.

- store the calculations made on your C:drive or local. (Please bear in mind that in
case of a defect of the C:drive you will lose the whole history. It is highly
recommended to create a back up copy time by time.)

- have the full information of each product by opening the product data sheet
and it offers a help at each step of the calculation process (currently English and
German only).
