Pave-IR Operator's Manual - Version 1.2

Full-Text PDF

Author(s):

S.D. Sebesta, T. Scullion, W. Liu, G.L. Harrison

Publication Date:

March 2006

Abstract:

This manual provides Pave-IR (infrared) operators with instructions for installing the Pave-IR Version 1.2 hardware and using the Pave-IR software package to collect and view thermal imaging data with the Pave-IR system. Pave-IR Version 1.2 mounts to the footplate of the paver and therefore does not require operators to propel the device. The manual includes a description of components, power management, system check procedures, installation, data collection, data viewing, and sensor calibration, and includes a software guide and support information. Thermal imaging examines hot-mix asphalt (HMA) overlays as they are placed. With the Pave-IR system, an infrared sensor bar replaces infrared cameras for thermal imaging. The Pave-IR system provides for reduced investment cost, simpler operation, more thorough data collection, and improved data processing capabilities, when compared to infrared cameras.
