Opqo includes the ability to perform "nameplate scanning" for asset collection inspections.  This provides a mechanism for performing text recognition on an image to populate inspection fields.


Opqo 23.09.0 adds the ability to enable this function on regular inspections, for the cases where this functionality is useful.


Nameplate scanning can be enabled via configuration within the inspections section of the general section of the STAUTOSCRIPT.STAMCONFIG automation script in the Maximo environment:


The following enables nameplate scanning globally for all inspections:

appConfig = {
  "general": {
    ...
    "inspections": {
      "allowNameplateScanning": true,
    },
    ... 
  }
  ...
}


It is also possible to selectively enable nameplate scanning on regular inspections, by setting the allowNameplateScanning property with a list of string values.  Inspections will be checked for a matching value as follows, and nameplate scanning will be enabled if a match is found:


  • ORGID
  • SITEID
  • FORMNUM
  • ORGID:FORMNUM
  • SITEID:FORMNUM


For example, to enable nameplate scanning for all inspections at the BEDFORD and NASHUA sites:

appConfig = {
  "general": {
    ...
    "inspections": {
      "allowNameplateScanning": ['BEDFORD', 'NASHUA'],
    },
    ... 
  }
  ...
}



To enable nameplate scanning for forms 1001, 1002 and 1003 at the BEDFORD site:

appConfig = {
  "general": {
    ...
    "inspections": {
      "allowNameplateScanning": ['BEDFORD:1001', 'BEDFORD:1002', 'BEDFORD:1003'],
    },
    ... 
  }
  ...
}
