Configure Modular drill integration

Activity steps:

  1. On the DataBlast application menu, select Site Maintenance.

    The Site Maintenance screen displays.

  2. Select the Service Control node.
  3. Select the Drill Machine Import > Modular tab.
  4. Click Create Modular ProVision Control Record.
  5. Leave Modular ProVision Drill Machine Import Active unchecked while configuring the interface.
  6. Complete the following fields that are specific to Modular ProVision drill integration as required.
    • Last Event ID Imported: The numerical event ID in the source Modular ProVision database from which to start looking for further records.
    • Modular ProVision Database Connection String: Click the ellipsis (...) to open the Select Database Server and Database screen to enter connection details.
    • Modular ProVision Database Timeout: The amount of wait time (in seconds) before terminating an attempt to query the Modular ProVision database and generating an error.
  7. Complete the following fields that are common to all drill interfaces as required.
    • Create Fault on 0 or Null Diameter: If checked, when the diameter provided is 0 or if no diameter is provided, a drill fault record instead of a drill machine hole detail record.
    • Reimport Skip Mode: If checked, processing of the current drill record is skipped if the hole already contains an undeleted drill machine record.
    • Time Zone: Select the time zone of the source data.
    • X/Y Deviation Diameter Count: The maximum number of design diameters distance in the X/Y plane from the design collar to the drilled collar that allows a hole to be considered within range. If the distance exceeds the amount represented by this value, the drill record is created as a drill fault, which requires manual confirmation as a valid hole record.
    • Sleep after Processing: The number of minutes to suspend processing when there are no new records available for processing.
    • Length Percentage Deviation: The percentage difference from the design drill length allowed before a hole is considered to require manual confirmation as a valid hole record.
    • Thread Database Timeout: If cleared, resets to Server default.
    • Angle Tolerance: The number of degrees difference from the design angle before a hole is considered to require manual confirmation as a valid hole record.
    • Bearing Tolerance: The number of degrees difference from the design bearing before a hole is considered to require manual confirmation as a valid hole record.
    • Ignore Drill Diameter: If checked, any drill diameter information provided by the source record is ignored.
    • Coordinate Conversion to Unit Multiplier: A multiplier applied directly to any X, Y or RL coordinate values before use.
    • Diameter Tolerance: The maximum percentage difference between the design and drill diameter before a hole is considered to require manual confirmation as a valid hole record.
    • Apply Diameter Tolerance to Valid Diameters
    • Drill Diameter Multiplier: A multiplier applied directly to the drill diameter value provided by the source drill import record.
    • Drill Diameter Rounding: The number of decimal places to round the diameter values before use (applied after the Drill Diameter Multiplier).
  8. To enable the interface, check Modular Drill Machine Import Active.
  9. Click Save Changes.
