Capture and Manage Inspection Images

The camera on the device can help document corrosion in atmospheric surveys or to depict items described within the data fields in any survey. You can take pictures that support inspection and maintenance fields for a facility. These images can later be transferred to and viewed in PCS 1.13 or newer.

Images can be added directly from the survey record window. A manage images window is available to see all images attached to the selected images field for the current record, add new images to the field, delete existing images, preview and modify existing images, and rearrange the order and priority of the images for the field.

For more information on capturing and working with saved images, refer to Add or Manage Inspection Images.

Also refer to Create A Work Event for information on adding images to a Work Event.

Allegro AX camera settings can be modified to optimize images for surveys. These settings include the following:

• Flash — turn the flash on in low-light situations or off if current lighting is sufficient.

• Timer — determine whether images are taken immediately or on a timer.

• Grid — adds a grid over the image preview window.

To change any of these settings, click the icon when the camera is open. Any changes made to the camera settings will persist outside of the Periodic Survey application.
