I.8.2 DUMP SMART DATASET
In case the computer cannot be connected to internet (no available connection, IT policy, …), the SMART
Dataset can still be sent by E-Mail, within a zip file.
1. Select the arm for which the SMART dataset needs to be sent
2. Enter the vault and click on the action button “dump SMART Dataset and Log file”
3. Confirm the creation by clicking on “Yes”
4. Then a zip file is created on “Public documents\ROMER\RDS\Temp” and the folder is open, pointing
on the created file.
5. Copy the dump file on a removable support (USB memory, CD, …) and send the file to the Hexagon
Manufacturing Intelligence technician.
The dump file contains the following data:
current’s
Content of the whole local SMART dataset (including all the local arms)
Rds.log
RDSLocalDBDLL.log
RDSToolBox.log
RDSTOolboxDLL.log
Log files that can help the investigations
I.8.3 OPEN A SMART DATASET
To be able to read a SMART dataset (from a dump file for example), a button is available in the vault:
1. Unzip the dump file
2. Enter the Vault and click on the action button “Open SMART dataset”
3. RDS Toolbox then switches in a “SMART dataset” mode (see SMART chapter) to simulate the distant
computer.
4. All the SMART information of the arms on the distant computer can be displayed and analysed.
