4.9 Freescan Ribbon
Freescan represents a scan that can be performed in any direction and at any location on the tank
floor. No plate number, track number or starting offset information is required prior to scanning. All
positional information of a Freescan is referenced to its scan origin.
Figure 88: Freescan page
The Freescan option is perfect for:
•
Calibration verification.
•
Investigating areas of interest during a mapping mode inspection, such as around an obstacle.
•
Investigating areas at different bridge heights during a mapping mode inspection. Ensure the
correct calibration for the bridge height is used.
Any indications found during a Freescan are not added to the indication list. To include indications in
a mapping mode inspection, they must be added in plate view using the add indication feature.
NOTE
The scan data captured during a Freescan cannot be saved.
