Active Inspection

The Active Inspection pane displays the main inspection details for the currently selected asset. Once configured, these selections persist across sessions based on the logged-in user ID. If you log out and log in as a different user, their settings may differ.

When viewing data in any panes of IC-Inspection, it typically pertains to the active entities displayed in the Active Inspection pane.

When you enter new data, the data is recorded against the active entities displayed in the Active Inspection pane, relevant to the specific entity. For example, if you launch an event, the event’s workpack and survey set will be the ones selected here (if applicable).

Before you start an inspection, fill in the fields on this pane:

Field

Description

Asset

Displays the currently selected asset.

Workpack

You must select the workpack against which inspection data is recorded. This field is mandatory. Click the ellipsis (ellipsis) in the field and select a workpack from the list.

Survey Set

You must select the survey set in which survey data is stored. Click the ellipsis (ellipsis) in the field and select a survey set from the list, or, create a survey set by clicking Add in the toolbar. In general, survey sets are preconfigured in NEXUS IC (see Configure Survey Sets).

ROV

If you use multiple ROVs during an inspection, you can select the relevant ROV in this field to make it clear to inspectors what ROV their video is being recorded against. Click the ellipsis (ellipsis) in the field, which takes you to the same Select Survey Set dialog as above. If a ROV has been linked to the survey set (in the Edit Survey Set dialog), it is displayed in the ROV column.

Event Template Group

If you want to use event templates to create ad hoc events, you must select the relevant event template group here. For more information, see Create Ad Hoc Event Using Event Templates and Set Up Event Templates.

Warning

If you attempt to start inspections from two different IC-Inspection copies on the same survey set simultaneously, an error message is triggered: “Another session is open with the same survey set selected.”

This practice is forbidden because both IC-Inspections would write to the same survey set concurrently, making it impossible to associate events with accurate survey data afterward. To avoid this, move at least one of the IC-Inspection instances to log data in a different survey set. Even if two events are logged at the exact same time, correct survey data can be associated with each event because they draw from the appropriate survey set. For clarity, ensure that you fill out the ROV value in each concurrent survey set, allowing reviewers to understand the intended connections.
