SmartPile® Fix Utilities – Renumber/Combine Blows
When collecting data on two different acquisition stations for the same pile, the
user will end up with two sets of blow data, each starting with blow 1. This fix
utility will allow the user to renumber blows so sets of blow data can be
combined as follows:
1. Identify the last blow of the original drive session (note the number).
2. Identify the drive session that need to be combined with the original
drive session in the Target Directory box (green box). It should be
noted that this utility will only function if both sessions have the same
radio ID (which should be the case since the sessions contain data
collected from the same pile).
3. Enter the number of the last blow of the original drive session (see step
1) in the Blow Adjustment box (red box)
4. Begin the renumbering by clicking on the Renumber Blows button
(purple box).
5. Once completed, you can copy the updated blows (using the Windows
File explorer) to the Original Blows Directory and rerun the drive session
with the both sets of blow data.
Note that if no Blow Adjustment is entered (i.e. left at zero), then nothing is
done. Also, the user can enter a negative number in the Blow Adjustment box.
If no other utilities need to be used, the user can click on the Quit button (black
box). Please note, however, that this will cause the session to be cleared and
before the review can continued the session should be reloaded (see step 11)
Subsequent to these changes, it is recommended that the updated drive session
be packed and submitted to the portal.
