6 Debugging Inspections 61 How to RoundTrip Debug Using the Emulator The iVu Emulator is a Windows application that allows you to operate in a Windows environment exactly as you would on the sensor itself In general the Emulator is an inspection debugging tool you can import stored inspections and configuration from an iVu sensor then modify its parameters on the emulator and restore the updated configuration back to the sensor When you install the iVu Emulator by default it is installed in the following folder CProgram FilesBanner EngineeringiVu Series You can run the Emulator from this folder but you will need to move files between the USB drive and PC To avoid moving files you can copy the Emulator executable to the USB drive and run the Emulator directly from the USB drive This howto describes the procedures for doing roundtrip debugging either using the iVu Emulator installed on a PC or using it directly from the USB Thumb Drive NOTE This document refers to saving configuration and inspection logs in folders based on the sensor name If you have not yet named the sensor then folders will be named using the first 8characters of the sensor serial number 611 How to Debug Using the Emulator from a PC 1 Plug a USB Thumb Drive into the sensor 2 Save Inspection Logs to the Thumb Drive a On the Main Menu Inspection Logs View Logs screen click the Save icon to save the inspection logs b When prompted select Yes to save sensor configuration along with the Inspection Logs The location of these files on the USB Thumb Drive will be displayed after the operation is completed The Inspection Logs are saved in USBBANNER SENSORNAMEInspLog and the sensor configuration is saved in USBBANNERSENSORNAME For example if the sensor name is myName Configuration File CONFIGCFG path USBBANNERmyName Inspection Logs path USBBANNERmyNameInspLog NOTE If the sensor has no name then the folder is the first 8characters of the serial number 3 Remove the USB drive from the sensor and insert it into an available USB port on a Windows PC that has the iVu Emulator instal led Important Make sure the iVu Emulator is NOT running before going to the next step 4 Copy the Sensor Configuration from the USB Thumb Drive to the folder where the Emulator is installed on the PC For example if the sensor name is myName and the iVu Emulator is installed in the default location on the PC copy the file USBBANNER myNameCONFIGCFG to CProgram FilesBanner EngineeringiVu Series 5 Copy the Inspection Logs from the USB Thumb Drive for example USBBANNERmyNameInspLog to the InspLog folder on the PC for example CProgram FilesBanner EngineeringiVu SeriesInspLogs 6 Start the emulator 7 Set the Trigger option to Internal Online Only rev A wwwbannerengineeringcom tel 7635443164 71
