The Robit Sense measurement software is a versatile tool for measuring boreholes. The measurement data can be saved in a database, where it can be viewed after drilling or at a later time.
Holes can be measured in two ways: 1) select a site and field before measurement, which allows you to define what hole to measure, or 2) measure a hole first and decide afterwards whether or not you wish to save it in a site. All holes measured in a field can be viewed simultaneously, which provides a good overall view of the holes throughout the field. A measured hole does not need to be connected to a worksite. Instead, it can be saved in the database separately.
Selecting a field before measuring a hole
The site can be selected before measuring a hole, in which case the measurement is done as follows:
- Select the site, level and field.
- Select the hole to be measured.
- Press the
Start measurement
button.
- Enter the starting angle of the hole, if it is known.
- Lower the measurement probe into the borehole.
- Press the
Begin lifting
button and start lifting the measurement probe from the borehole.
- Maintain the rod stationary for the time shown on the screen.
- Mark the measurement points at predefined intervals points using the touchscreen.
- Once the probe has been lifted, the hole measurement data is transferred to the computer.
- The data for the measured hole is linked to the selected hole automatically.
Measuring a borehole without selecting a field
Measurement is done as follows:
- Press the
Start measurement
button.
- Enter the starting angle of the hole, if it is known.
- Lower the measurement probe into the borehole.
- Press the
Begin lifting
button and start lifting the measurement probe from the borehole.
- Maintain the rod stationary for the time shown on the screen.
- Mark the measurement points at predefined intervals points using the touchscreen.
- Once the probe has been lifted, the hole measurement data is transferred to the computer.
The hole data is saved as follows:
- Select the worksite, level and field where the data is to be saved. If you do not select a site for the hole, it will be saved independently in the database.
- Select the hole from the drilled field.
- Link the transferred information to the drilled hole.
