Opening Inspections
To open a saved inspection, click the Open Inspection button. This will launch the Open Inspection window shown in the picture below.
This window helps you find the desired inspection by providing filters and sorting options.
Inspection Types - Choose an inspection type to display, or select All to show all Inspection types.
Operator - Choose an operator's name to show inspections performed by the selected operator, or select All to show inspections from all operators.
Date Range - Choose either day, week or month. You will see the selection in the calendar change to reflect the chosen option.
Calendar - Click to select which dates are shown in the Inspection List.
The table on the right shows all the inspections that meet the above criteria. The table headers can be used to sort the table based on a given attribute.
When you locate the inspection, select it in the table, then click Open or Resume.
Open - Click the Open button to open the selected inspection in read-only mode for review.
Resume - Click the Resume button to open the selected inspection in resume inspection mode.
Previously measured welds cannot be modified in a resumed inspection.
Upon saving, a resumed inspection will update it's date and time to the new save time. This may mean that the inspection moves from an older date to a newer one. Also, a resumed inspection needs to be synchronized again with the Coordinator's PC if you want to see the newer data in the RSWA Reporter software.
By default, all inspections are stored in a database. This allows for fast storage, retrieval, and sorting of the measurements. Access to individual inspection files may be needed however, and the two following options allow exporting and importing inspections as files:
Export Inspection - Clicking this option allows you to save a copy of a single inspection into a file.
Open from File - Clicking this option allows you to load an inspection from a file into the RSWA for review.
