Modifying the Imported Tags Meaning
Depending on your seismic monitoring system setup, you may be importing events with different tags into mXrap. When you open mXrap, any events with imported tags ‘b’ and ‘n’ are turned off by default and all other imported tags (e.g. ‘e’) are turned on. If your database contains other imported tags, you can change the meaning (GOOD, OUTLIER, or BLAST) using: General Setup Windows > Event Tag Editor > Imported Tag Meaning.
Modifying Root Access in mXsync
Use mXsync to easily add and remove users from your mXrap roots.
Modifying The Blast Record
When trying to add, delete or change blasts in mXrap, best practice is to use the ‘Blasts Editor’ found under the ‘General Set-Up Windows’ tab: If you need to make bulk changes however, it may be tempting to directly alter the input file in the root folder. Problem: When you open the ‘Blasts.csv’ in MS […]
What are Bundles?
Bundles are a form of protection which we use to limit access to specific parts of mXrap applications. One of the primary incentives behind the use of Bundles is to reduce the amount of the root folder which is exposed to users for editing. While we encourage users to modify the root folder to suit […]
Survey decimation
Are your surveys really slow to load? Are you having difficulty rotating your 3D view? The problem might be the level of detail in your survey files. If the level of detail of survey files is unnecessarily high, it will slow down the 3D view for no reason. This is often the case with stope […]
Survey input configuration
Are you unable to see your surveys, but can’t work out why? Are some of your surveys located a long way away from the rest of your mine when they shouldn’t be? This could be due to the input configuration of your survey files. The order of the co-ordinate components (Easting, Northing, RL) are sometimes […]
What do the hazard iso’s mean?
The Iso View in the Hazard Assessment application expresses the seismic hazard in two ways. The current yearly hazard within the chosen grid volume. This is shown in the footer of the 3D view, as the probability of an event exceeding the design magnitude. The spatial distribution of the hazard. This is highlighted by the […]
What are minodes?
Minodes are what we use in multiple places in mXrap if we want to assign information to development. They are just point locations, dotted along your development, in roughly 5m intervals. Things like ground support and PPV hazard are really only relevant for development locations, so minodes are our way of denoting these places. Minodes […]
What on Earth is MUL?
Yes, this is a frequently asked question…. MUL or MUpper-Limit refers to the truncating magnitude of the Gutenberg-Richter distribution. We used to refer to this as Mmax in the Hazard Assessment app and on the frequency-magnitude chart but we found there was confusion caused by Mmax being used to describe multiple things. Hopefully if we […]
What survey formats can be imported into mXrap?
mXrap supports the following survey formats to be used in 3D views: DXF (AutoCAD .dxf) DTM / STR (Surpac .dtm/.str) PNT (.pnt) INP (Map3D Geometry .inp files) Regarding DXF files, this is a complicated format that AutoCAD often updates with new specifications. Our importer will always be behind the latest updates and therefore incompatible with […]
