Data Acquisition
BEFORE STARTING THERE ARE
5 things which the acquisition
software needs to know:
Plate Number (row and plate)
Plate dimensions (width and length)
Horizontal or vertical plate (relative to
the tank datum)
Which corner of the plate will we start
scanning (plate reference)
Raster scan (2 directional scanning)
OR Parallel scan (1 direction
scanning)
Software display
Data Acquisition
Calibration Procedure
Calibration process on a
plate direction 1
Calibration process in
reverse direction.
Correct Calibration
Plate Set-up
Data Acquisition
Normal scanning procedure
Start offset
Option to save or repeat a scan.
Last track will overlap previous
track to show plate width correctly
Ability to delete just the last track
and repeat the scan.
Viewing captured defects
Data Acquisition
Transverse scans
Why do transverse scans?
To cover the area not inspected at
beginning and / or end of plate.
Choosing transverse scan direction
Transverse scan offset - Either
enter distance, move the green bar
with finger, or press the button to
move the green bar to either end of
the plate.
Track menu
Data Acquisition
Saving finished plates
Remember that the plate
number automatically
changes.
Row numbers should be
changed manually.
Archiving Data
Backup automatically transfers data
to a USB flash memory device
(removable hard drive).
Archiving Data
Transfer data allows users to select
individual files and transfer them to the
location of their choice.
NOTE : Use of non dedicated USB to
the Sitemaster 400 can lead to a virus
attack corrupting the Data acquisition
software, the acquired scanned data
& also loss of precious time ! ! !
NOT COVERED BY SILVERWING
WARRANTY TOO ! ! ! ! !
Archiving Data
Data transfer
It is recommended that the reporting
Laptop dedicated for the FloormapVS
reporting software has Windows
XP Professional Edition and NOT
Windows Vista OR Home Edition
Windows Vista can be used but needs
an ICT person to close down
programmes in the background to free
up the processor.
Data transfer
Note: The inspection data will be
contained in a folder name using the
customer name, location and tank id.
This folder will contain a folder named
scan which contains the data files
(.FM2) and a configuration file (.IVS).
The folder named scan and the
configuration file are both needed
for the correct operation of the
reporting software. The data
acquisition stores data in the following
location:
C/Program Files/Silverwing/Data

starting at the top and moving down.
Pressing each button will start the
installation wizard for that software.
Just accept the license agreements
and press next to follow the wizard

Reporting Software
Activation
Reporting Software
Activation
New from version 2.0 upwards
When installing a newer version of the
reporting software (full version)
UPGRADE it is not necessary to
remove the previous version.
If the previous version has not been
removed the new version will not
require re-activation.
Reporting Software
Activation
The client version of the software
does not need activating. It will run
immediately once it has been
installed.
The full version requires activation.
When you try to run the full version for
the first time the product activation
window will start.
Reporting Software
Starting the Software
It is very important to understand
the difference between raw data and
tank files.
Raw data comes directly from the
scanner, users will then edit the
data, add other inspection results,
add symbols such as man ways,
pipes etc.
This data is then saved as tank files.
For the time being load the example
tank.
Annular Configuration
Tank View
Advanced analysis
and reporting features
Reporting Software
Starting the Software
The tank diagram was created
automatically by the software.
You should understand the
software layout
Use the buttons along the top of
the screen to navigate between the
different screens of the program.
Use the blue bars at the left of the
screen to show or hide additional
function menus (similar to the
folder view in windows XP)
Plate View
NOTE:
1) It is not possible to change the
Length and Width of a plate
2) It is not possible to change the
start date of inspection.
Even if you attempt to change
the start date on screen, still it
will print the original start date of
inspection.
Advanced analysis
and reporting features
Reporting Software - Edit Data
Edit or Delete defects Right click on a
defect and click delete defect to remove
defects. Right click on a defect and click on
edit defect to adjust the value of an
individual defect. Click on apply defect to
apply the changes.
Tank Details Here operators can edit
the project details originally entered into
the Data Acquisition software.
Useful for correcting spelling mistakes.
Tank Customisation
Next
browse to the photo (choosing thumbnails from
the view menu at the top right is useful here) and
click open. Add a comment if required, then click
save.
Caution in Report
Submission.
Flush ground welds made to fill
top surface pits give indications of
discontinuities when scanned.
Close VISUAL Inspection with
good lighting of these areas &
accurate recording the area can
help in the decision process to
remove of these false indications
during report preparation.
Report configuration
Caution in Report
Submission.
Any data to be given to end users client
on a daily basis should preferably be
examined and edited or highlighted that
this is generated from raw data and
subject to review, following completion
of visual & UT inspection of tank floor.
4.1 Maintenance
Clean any dirt or foreign objects from
encoder gears
