At the end of a
day’s work (shift) if you have not completed the exploratory hole close KeyLogbook by using
End
shift
option
NOTE
; THIS IS NOT THE END OF THE HOLE, the hole will be continued at the next shift. The
programme will take you through the
end shift
requirements such as hole depth and water levels the data will then
be saved. You will then have the option to send the data for this exploratory hole and if so where to. Follow the on
screen instruction selecting Email, USB, or FTP or any combination of these. If you have a phone signal, the data
(
PDF of the log, install sheets etc and EXL of the measure and AGS for all data from the hole
) will be sent to the
engineer and or client for the job. If you do not have a phone signal KeyLogbook will send the data as soon as it
has a signal, (
you will be warned if the data has not been sent
). A signal is not needed to save to a USB, just insert
the flash drive to the tablet. The programme now automatically closes down and the tablet can be turned off.
Finish Hole
On finishing exploratory hole press the
Finish
hole button on the main thumbpad.
NOTE
THIS OPTION SHOULD
NOT BE USED UNTIL ALL DATA HAS BEEN ENTERED INCLUDING INSTALLS If you are going to install the
next day choose the
end shift
rather than the
finish hole
and complete the install details on the next shift. You will
then be asked to record the end of hole details including final depths and water levels etc You will then have the
option to send the data for this exploratory hole and if so where to. Follow the on screen instruction selecting either
Email USB or FTP or any combination of these if you have a phone signal the data (
PDF of the log, install sheets
etc and EXL of the measure and AGS for all data from the hole
) will be sent to the engineer and or client for the
job. If you do not have a phone signal you can send the data as soon as you have a signal, (
you will be warned if
the data has not been sent

this KeyLogbook will return to the project sheet for you to choose the next exploratory hole to record. To exit the
programme tap the
Project
button and then the
exit
button.
Recording the GPS Position
Version v1.2.0.0. utilises the GPS position of KeyLogbook, once the GPS is enabled from the options thumbpad
keylogbook will automatically record in the accurate GPS position of the exploratory hole on completion, just place
Keylogbook on the exploratory hole and select Location and then the GPS option, it may take a couple of minutes
for KeyLogbook to locate enough satellites to give an accurate position. If for any reason Keylogbook is unable to
locate the position it will display a timed out message and the position may be entered manually using the position
from another device or alternatively it may be left blank. The position is displayed on the trial pit log but is not
displayed on borehole logs but in both cases it is sent with the AGS data on export. Giving the GPS position will
allow the exploratory hole
’s position to be instantly plotted with the appropriate software.
If the orientation and level are know these can also be recorded and exported from this option.
