Modules and Related Options
PCS modules are purchased either separately or as a package. Modules and related options, such as Bridge Import and Telluric Compensation, become operational after entering the software activation key provided by American Innovations (AI).
Modules/Related Options |
Description |
---|---|
Cathodic Protection Data Manager (CPDM) |
CPDM manages cathodic protection (CP) data for facility types such as test points, rectifiers, foreign bonds, galvanic anodes, and tanks. Distribution and transmission companies use this module to manage and track corrosion data as well as other types of corrosion-related data. |
Indirect Survey Manager (ISM) |
ISM manages and analyzes survey data for above ground continuous surveys (also referred to as indirect surveys). You can enter survey readings manually or use the Allegro field computer or mobile device or PCS Bridge to transfer survey readings in ISM. The types of continuous surveys supported in ISM include: Close Interval Survey (CIS), AC Close Interval Survey (AC CIS), DC Voltage Gradient (DCVG), AC Voltage Gradient (ACVG), AC Current Attenuation (ACCA), Soil Resistivity, and ILI. |
Atmospheric Corrosion Manager (ACM) |
ACM manages atmospheric corrosion data as required by US DOT 192 and 195 regulations. |
Valve Manager (VM) |
VM manages valve inspection and repair data. The module provides compliance scheduling, data management, and reporting of valve information. |
Internal Corrosion Manager (ICM) |
ICM tracks internal corrosion data in compliance with US DOT 192 and 195 regulations. ICM supports facility types such as inhibitor injectors, coupons, samples, and probes. |
Leak Survey Manager (LSM) |
LSM manages and provides compliance scheduling for leak surveys, classifies leaks and repair data, and supports follow-up activities. |
Custom Module Management (CMM) |
CMM is an optional module available for purchase that becomes operational after activating your PCS license. PCS supports up to ten (10) user defined modules with each module supporting up to ten (10) user defined facility types. Features and functionality available in the various modules distributed with PCS are also available in CMM. These include routes, schedules, reports/graphs, user defined fields (UDFs), themes, and so on. |
Bridge Import |
An optional feature available for purchase that requires a Bridge activation key for use. This feature allows you to transfer data between PCS and an external system, such Bullhorn Web or a GIS or work management system. |
Telluric Compensation |
An optional feature available for purchase that becomes operational after applying your PCS license. This feature provides support for telluric current compensation of survey readings and management of stationary survey data used in telluric compensation. PCS enhancements for telluric compensation include CPDM, ISM, Stationary Survey Maintenance, Field Computer, and Reports/Graphs. |
