EPOCH 4PLUS
Figure 70 ID Generation
After an inspection plan is created in GageView Pro, the file will appear like any other
EPOCH 4PLUS file and can be uploaded to the instrument. The operator simply recalls
this file from the datalogger, and the instrument recalls the first calibration to begin the
inspection. This feature has multiple benefits:
• The operator is guided through the inspection process.
• The operator is more likely to use proper instrument setups and transducers.
• Inspection data is uniform from inspection to inspection and operator to operator.
• The operator cannot easily adjust pre-loaded calibrations.
• The data is easily exported from multiple inspections aligned by Weld Number.
This makes it easy to monitor each individual weld for quality shifts over time.
Along with the ability to upload the saved inspection plan multiple times to any EPOCH
4PLUS, an operator can also duplicate an inspection plan onboard the instrument. Once an
inspection has been completed, the operator can open the datalogger, highlight the
inspection plan, and create a new, blank template plan by pressing the [F2] key, labelled
NEW PLAN.
Inspection Data Export:
On completion of an inspection, GageView Pro allows the operator to download the
completed inspection plan file to a PC. Once the file is stored on the PC, the operator can
choose to export data to an Excel spreadsheet for reporting purposes. When Spotweld
inspection data is exported, data including calibration settings, IDs, and waveform data
are exported as usual. GageView Pro also exports the Spotweld Assistant weld
characteristic stamp and the operator selected weld stamp described previously in
Inspection Data Storage. These stamps appear for each weld ID and allow the operator to
