5.7 

Remove the safety cap at the other end of the inclinometer probe.  

5.8 

Fix the inclinometer probe (side marked as ‘+’) to the inclinometer cable reel connector and other 
end to the threaded adaptor of pulling cable connector (refer figure 9) to pull the probe through 
the casing. 

5.9 

Plug the readout connector of the cable reel to the readout unit. Connect the mobile datalogger 
with the cable reel.  

5.10 

Follow the inclinometer operation manual #WI 6002.103  section 7 & 8 for setting up the 
inclinometer probe and the borehole configuration.  Also refer to  the  test certificate and 
configuration sheet for the parameters.    

5.11 

Below mentioned parameters are set: 

o

  Site code. 

o

  Borehole code. 

o

  RDG INT -  reading Interval 

o

  After saving above set-up enter orientation of the probe. For example, in case orientation 

entered is ‘A’, the faces that will be logged will be ‘A’ and ‘B’, the probe being a uni-axial 
sensor the reading of axis B is irrelevant. Faces A, B, C, and D are here referred as A+, 
B+, A-, and B-. 

o

  On confirming ‘Yes’ that information is correct, the datalogger will be ready to log the 

data. 

o

  For logging  borehole data, refer to the section 7 & 8 of  the Inclinometer operation 

manual.  

5.12 

Insert the inclinometer probe in the access tube with spring loaded wheel pointing  in direction 
marked ‘A+’. Orient far end wheel of probe in direction ‘A+’ as marked on casing grooves and 
insert it into access tube  up to  first mark on the cable. Pull probe along the  entire length of 
access tube with a help of pull cable reel from the other end. Keep unwinding the interconnecting 
cable.  

5.13 

Let probe rest at the end of the far end of access casing for approximately 5 minutes to stabilize 
temperatures within the probe and cable. Pull probe along the entire length of access tube with 
the help of cable reel, taking readings at intervals of 0.5 m. Continue logging data unless 

Face 

AB

 Done is displayed on screen. A walkie-talkie or mobile phone can be used for communication 

at the other end of the horizontal borehole. 

5.14 

Pullout probe from casing and remove probe from the cable connecting inclinometer probe and 
connect it to the other end of the probe.  

5.15 

Now insert the inclinometer probe again in the ABS Inclinometer casing and pull it to the other 
end of the access tubing with the spring loaded wheel pointing in direction ‘A-’ i.e. the farthest 
end of ‘+’ at the sprung wheel side. Pull the probe along the entire length of access tubing from 
pull cable end to probe cable end, taking readings at intervals of 0.5 m. When all the faces are 
logged, borehole completed will be displayed. 

5.16 

Upon probe reaching end of casing, take out the probe. 

5.17 

Remove the threaded adaptor from the probe and fix it on the protective cap (Refer to figure 11).
