Screen Areas

When you first start the program the main window below will be displayed. The LogMan window will look like below. This window consists of a title bar, menu bar, optional toolbars, desktop, and a status bar. In addition, popup menus can be displayed by clicking the right mouse button



Title Bar

The title bar is located at the top of the window and displays the program's name, the currently opened project, and the currently opened borehole log.

Tool Bar

The tool bar is located below the menu bar and contains the main level of commands in the program.

Menu Bar

The menu bar is located below the title bar and contains the main level of commands in the program. It uses standard Windows pull-down menus. You can choose any menu item on any submenu that is not dimmed (You can custom LogMan menu and toolbar and save all changed).
When the program is first started new data sheet will appear.

Panel

Some panel for input data, You can drag, expand, collapse it.

Data table

All most Logman data store in Table. That very quick with copy, cut, paste.



1. Lithology windows
Lithology window is used to Input general information of strata.


When Lithology window active then can edit or in put some thing in �Project information panel� : PROJECT, LOCATION, LOGGER and INSPECTOR. These information will be DEFAULTED when it is added one BOREHOLE LOG or new CROSS. Besides, LOGMAN helps adjusting these information to each BOREHOLE or specific cross.

Table LITHOLOGY
To input the general information about LITHOLOGIES in surveyed area, including:
+     LAYER name.
+     LITHOLOGY DESCRIPTION
+     WEATHERING
+     HARDNESS of rock
+     Soil or rock grade
+     Symbol 1-4: Patterns of soil and rock will showed on the DRAWING, it�s allowable to have some patterns in one layer.
E.g : Organic soil, highly weathered Granite. These PATTERNS are used by Autocad and can be written as order from customer.
+      Fracture of rock (Discontinue density).
+      Discontinue description
The above information can be automatically selected directly by DEFAULT OPTION in the program or can be selected from many available patterns.
2. Boreholes list windows
List all boreholes in project include borehole�s header.
E.g : Project name, Borehole name, X coordinate, Y coordinate, Depth of borehole�
In order input data you may use this windows after have information of lithology and before make a cross which include some borehole.



2.1 Table BOREHOLES LIST
General information about borehole, including :
+     BOREHOLE NAME: It is required to have a new hole.
The boreholes without name or being deleted will not inputted into database.
To delete borehole data, see the ROW DELETE. to copy borehohe data, see COPY BOREHOHE DATA.
+     ELEVATION
+     X COORDINATE (or NORTH)
+     Y COORDINATE (or EAST)
X and Y COORDINATE can be used to locate the borehole position onto the plan map.
notice: Any item which is kept blank or error will be defaulted as zero.
+    WATER LEVEL: The stable ground water level in the borehole if any.
+     DEPTH: The depth of borehole will be automatically updated during entering the data of layers. It�s not required to input or adjust this item.
+    SCALE: Scale of borehole logging.
+    STARTED DATE and FINISHED DATE.

3. Windows to input detail data of borehole and cross.

In a order, After inputting general information of boreholes, we choose different specific windows to input data of each borehole or cross.
- Borehole details windows
Used to input and adjust the information of each hole, including 3 tables and one panel:

When this window active user can edit borehole header from �borehole header� panel. Project, State, Section� was default by project data, but you can change it. Remember it may difference with each other.

- Cross details windows

Used to input and manage the data of cross
There are two types of crosses : CROSS and FENCE (little cross) with the same data.

When this window active user can configs cross from �Cross configs� panel. Hor. scale, Ver. scale, Draw scale bar�

- Options windows

Used to configs the way and value to input data, custom interface.





All change will available after chose �Apply�

Menu FILE



The menu displays a list of commands for controlling file 

Menu EDIT



The menu displays a list of command to manipulate the data in table, e.g: cut, copy, paste, insert row, delete row.

Menu View:

Used to Show or hide some panel, windows.


Menu Tools:

Used to choose various configuration for the program

+  Enter DIRECTION :choose direction to move the cursor after inputting the data in one cell.
+  SPLIT BOREHOLE LOGS: permit user to split the borehole log into many pages in case the size of drawing is too large.
+  Hatch the layer material for cross section: The program will automatically fill layers with pattern(s) when drawing the cross.
+  Little cross (fence) only Hatch the layer nearly Borehole. e.g 5m, 10m.
+  Options: Configs the way to input data and user interface.

Menu Draw

+  START AUTOCAD: Run Autocad to make Boreholes or cross if it has not been started. LogMan can be run Autocad itself.


+  DRAW BOREHOLE LOG: You must be chose a template, Windows Boreholes list must be active.
TEMPLATE A3, A4: often used in hydraulic or water resource project.
TEMPLATE 3,4 (with SPT GRAPH and without SPT GRAPH): often used in civil engineering project
+  DRAW CROSS: All cross available in lists will be create, if Windows cross are active then only select cross will be create.
+     LITHOLOGY HATCH: hatch the material of strata with pattern(s) by layer or point selection.
+     LEGEND: helps to create a table of legends for lithology used in Acad drawing.
+     INSERT SYMBOL OF BOREHOLE: Locates the borehole position onto map together with notation, elevation and depth.
+      LIST OF SAMPLES: List all sample in project into Excel file.
