Step One: Process
Tanks

|
This program extracts data from the
tank files and assembles it into a form that the SIR analytical
software can use. |
Step Two: Prepare
to Build File
 |
This is the next
screen you see.
Notice that the program will
automatically combine data for manifolded tanks.
|
Step Three: Select
Parameters for Analysis
 |
On the next screen,
enter the company number and the ending date (the date through
which you want the analysis done). The beginning date
automatically defaults to a date 90 days prior to the ending date.
Choose to run an analysis on one
location, a range of locations, or all locations. |
| Once you OK these
selections, the program runs on its own. What's the speed of the
analysis process? On a Pentium-class computer, less than 5 minutes
per 120 tanks. |
Step Four: State ID
Verification
 |
The next program verifies that each location has a state ID
code. The state codes tell the system whether to apply .1 gph or .2 gph as the
reportable loss threshold. Most states have adopted the .1 gph threshold, but because not all have,
AUTOSIR has to be
able to handle both automatically. |
| Once you tell this
program to proceed, sit back and wait for the number crunching
to finish. |
Step Five:
View/Print Analysis
 |
You will be returned back to
the Analysis Menu.
Here, choose View/ Print
Analysis to see the results of the SIR analysis that you have just run.
|
Step Six: Report
Selection
 |
For
the fastest way to look at the status of all your tank and line systems,
choose option 5, Status File.
The Manager's Report would
list only those tanks that returned a call other than "No Reportable
Loss Detected." It is an exception report.
|
Step Seven: Status
File
 |
Any AUTOSIR report can be viewed on the screen,
printed, or saved to disk.
That's it! That's all you do
to execute a SIR analysis and view the results. It's so easy and fast that
you could test your tanks and lines every day.
Most AUTOSIR users run SIR at
least once a week to find problems early, while they are small-and fix them!
