•
Custom Grid
- A three-dimension file with user-defined locations and grid coordinates for points. Often used for tank floors, ship
hulls, and similar applications. Users can build numerous “grids” (up to 999) within a file. Each grid is made up of up to 702 rows
and 702 columns. Each row and column meet to establish a data-point input location.User parameters are Reading Type (Standard or
Extended), Number of Locations, Location Label Length, Grid Labeling, Starting Row and Column, Ending Row and Column Start
Point, and End Point.
•
Custom Point
- A two-dimension file with user-defined location and point labels. Often used for process piping circuits, pressure
vessels, and similar applications. Accepts up to 999 data points in each location. Up to 999 locations are allowed. User parameters
are Reading Type (Standard or Extended), Number of Locations, Location Label Length, Points Per Location, and Point Label
Length.
•
Boiler
- A three-dimension file with user-defined location names, sequential numeric tube labels, and a fixed (custom) set of point
names. Often used for boiler wall tubing and similar applications. Stores up to four data points per tube, for up to 999 tubes. Data can
be recorded at up to 9,999 elevations.User parameters are Reading Type (Standard or Extended), Number of Elevations, Elevation
Label Length, Starting Tube #, Ending Tube #, and Points on Tube.
•
Copy - Enables you to copy a selected file to another file.
Note:
Custom 3D and 4D files are only supported as built outside of the DMS Go DR creation system.
After selecting the option, enter the associated parameters, listed for each type in Table 3 on the next page. When you have finished, press
