Operations Manual for Portable Profiler - Installing and Using the Portable Profiler

摘要

This manual is divided into two sections. The first is using the UTA-Profiler Program with the portable profiler for generating surface profilers. The second is installing the portable profiler module on a typical van or truck. The calibration and initialization files used by the UTA-Profiler Program are compatible with the standard TxDOT files used with VAMOS and WinTK. Information on, deriving these files are explained in the TxDOT Profiler Operations Manual. The generated profile obtained when using the the UTA-Profiler Program with the portable profiler is consistent with the TxDOT PF9 VNET data file specifications and as such the generated profile can be directly used with current TxDOT and PROVAL application programs. The second section, installing the portable profiler module on a typical van or truck, provides a step by step process for mounting the portable profiler sensor module.
