SCORING MODULES:
Overview:
After welding a pass, the user can now see whether
each defect/discontinuity was within acceptable stan-
dards (passed) or not (failed). The acceptable stan-
dards implemented in VRTEX
®
360 are known as
scoring modules. Instructors can use the Instructor
Mode to enable the scoring module they would like to
use (i.e., AWS D1.1 or ASME). The pass/fail marks
will appear on the LASER screen for relevant passes
(scoring modules do not cover all of the available
VRTEX
®
360 welds).
The SCORING MODULE feature can be used when
the user wishes to have their welding evaluated
against the ASME or AWS D1.1 standards. This
option can be selected by entering the INSTRUC-
TORS MODE using the instructor’s key. From the
Sign In screen, turn the Instructor’s Key 90º to the
right. Use the joystick to highlight SCORING MOD-
ULE located at the bottom right corner of the
Instructors Mode screen. Use the red SELECT button
to open the options in the module. Use the joystick to
toggle between Based on ASME Standards, Based on
D1.1 Standards, and None. Use the red SELECT but-
ton to choose a standard. Press the orange BACK
button twice to return to the Sign In screen.
