WinCanVX is a special software application to gather data from pipeline inspections done with camera robots. The application is finally providing you easy readable reports implying pictures and video clips taken/recorded directly via the LiveVideo signal.
Furthermore inclination data, section/manhole sketches and other kinds of information can be assigned to the corresponding pipe sections.
The present guide is giving you a quick overview of the basic work flow operators must know to get a report that contains the most important inspection data.

A built-in positioning wizard always selects that spot on the screen where you actually move the preferred panel keeping the left mouse key pressed:

Once you have rearranged the panels according to your personal needs for the acquisition of main and lateral sections (satellites) or manholes this individual view (profile) can easily be saved for further WinCanVX sessions via the tab Views. The main interface (group of panels) as well as each single panel of course can be maximized to full screen size.
