AutoBlast is a ground vibration monitoring and logging device. It can be used in various applications of Civil Engineering such as industrial vibration monitoring, ground transportation traffic vibration monitoring, construction site monitoring, noise, and vibration monitoring in a blasting zone. It is also useful in the fields of Earthquake Engineering for monitoring the structures of buildings, bridges, and dams.
Measurement is taken using a packet of velocity sensors (geophones) and Air Overpressure level using a microphone, storing the data into a built-in memory storage, which can be downloaded to a PC via Bluetooth. AutoBlast can be configured to perform a sensor check operation before monitoring starts to make sure, the sensors are functioning properly. Events are automatically recorded when the measurement level of the vibration noise exceeds a threshold value, and alarms can be raised. These can be auxiliary alarms (i.e., light signal or siren) as well as notifications sent by Email or SMS using the built-in modem.

AutoStop brake meters measure deceleration (braking efficiency) directly (which is the design parameter used in original homologation) to an accuracy of 2%. Distance is calculated by the meter in its internal computer using the average deceleration measurement, time to stop (from the internal real time clock – accuracy 1.0%) and the assumption that the final speed is zero. The double integration process involved in the mathematics compounds these measurement accuracies and dependent on the shape of the deceleration versus time trace can generate a different result. The difference will be much less than that obtained from using any peak deceleration instrument such as a Tapley meter. The difference is due solely to the mathematics and is not a function of the AutoStop meter. Regulators in certain jurisdictions still use “distance to stop” – because in the 70’s and 80’s direct measurement of braking efficiency to an accuracy of 2%. The regulations will “catch-up” eventually.

IMPORTANT THINGS TO KNOW
BLUETOOTH PRINTER:
Hold Power button and Volume Down button at the same time for a couple of seconds.Go to: SETTINGS > ABOUT > VERSION
(See Fig 1 below)
Go to: SETTINGS > ABOUT > TABLET SERIAL
(See Fig 1 below)
When the BrakePro app starts, it shows “Looking for GPS Signal’ for a long time and I can’t use the unit.
Your unit is having trouble acquiring a signal, take the unit outside. Alternatively connect your unit to a Wi-Fi network to assist in establishing a connection, this can reduce start up time considerably.
My brake software is expired. How do I reactivate it?
Through the Workshop Manager app. You need to make sure that you have the latest version of the Workshop Manager app to reactivate your license. If the Workshop Manager app prompts you to download an update, press on DOWNLOAD and wait for the update file to be downloaded into your Workshop Pro 10 Tablet. Once it is done, a prompt saying DO YOU WANT TO INSTALL AN UPDATE TO THIS APPLICATION will be displayed. Press INSTALL and wait for the installation to finish. Once done, press OPEN to open the newly updated Workshop Manager app. You can then proceed to reactivate your license by pressing PURCHASE LICENSE and follow the on-screen instructions to proceed. If the BrakePro app still do not recognise the new license, restart the BrakePro app.
How do I know what version of software I have?
Go to: SETTINGS > ABOUT > VERSION
(See Fig 1 below)
Where can I find my Serial Number?
Go to: SETTINGS > ABOUT > TABLET SERIAL
(See Fig 1 below)
Figure 1: The About screen shows your softwear version number, tablet serial number, android ID, and your GPS location zone.
When should I calibrate my Workshop Pro?
Calibration is required yearly. This can be done yourself through BrakePro app by going to SETTINGS
*IN NSW YOU MUST SEND YOUR WORKSHOP PRO AND PEDAL EFFORT SENSOR TO US FOR YEARLY CALIBRATION.
When do I need to send in my Workshop Pro?
You do not need to*. If you are having issues with the Workshop Pro (i.e. Won’t charge or won’t turn on), you can take the device to your nearest Distributor. Alternatively, call our service line ( 3 8840 3016 ) for advice before sending your unit back.
My unit prompts me to update the BrakePro app but shows an error when it tries to install.
Contact Service Team and they’ll walk you through this issue.
Figure 2: Workshop Pro in position ready for testing. If the unit is moving in the seat, place on the floor of the passenger seat. Supplied velcro will secure in place.
When activating my unit, I get an error such as ‘Address field too long’ or similar.
Please check your address. If the address is very long you may need to abbreviate it. Do not use special characters such as commas or slashes, as these will trigger errors. Just leave a space in their place when possible.
The app is running slowly when sorting out stored tests.
Please clean up tests regularly by transferring them to the computer using the USB cable.
The time on my unit is wrong, how do I fix this?
Change the time to AUTOMATIC if you had changed it manually. If it’s on network time but still incorrect, connect to a network to get the updated time. The time zone may be wrong, so swipe up on the bottom of the screen and press the circle button. Once you’re on the home screen swipe on the middle of the screen to open up the list of apps. Open ‘Settings’ and scroll down to select System Settings. Then select Date & Time. Switch off Automatic Time Zone if it’s on and then set correct Time Zone manually if that is wrong.
My results are in the wrong units, how do I change them?
Open Settings from the Brake Pro app’s main menu and then select Test Results Settings. Choose your desired Units and then press either the house or gears icons to save your choice. You can also change the units for decelaration on the test results screen by pressing on the decelaration readings and choosing from the menu that pops up.
Why am I getting a speed error?
The Workshop Pro is moving relative to the vehicle. This is a common error when the unit is not secured properly to the vehicle. See Figure 2 on previous page. The supplied Velcro will stop your Workshop Pro from moving,when attached to the carpet floor on the passenger side of the vehicle. Never hold in your hand for the test, or between your legs, or on the floor of the driver’s side.
How do I delete a saved result?
To delete individual saved test results, open Database on the main App menu. Hold your finger down on the test you want deleted and it will be highlighted in red. You can then select multiple tests to be deleted. Click the trash can in top right corner to delete the selected tests.
