3 Welcome Welcome Thank you for purchasing Hurco s Infrastructure Management System, IMS, software. IMS was developed to help you manage one of our most important infrastructures, water distribution. The IMS system was designed to be used with Hurco s Fire Flow Pro for fire flow testing, unidirectional flushing, c-factor testing and Hurco s Valve Star for valve exercising and management. This IMS software can also be used as a standalone system ready for you to enter data and create reports. This software has many user friendly features including drop down menus and data selection fields, report editing, security features and much more. This software will give you every function you need to manage your water distribution system including valves, hydrants and mains. IMS software modules include: Hydrant and Valve Maintenance, included with base package. Fire Flow Testing C-factor Testing Unidirectional Flushing Valve Exercising QSI Integration Module for Valve Star G4 and Fire Flow Pro QSI This manual will take you through the step by step procedures for using the IMS software. We use simple to understand instructions and photos to assist you in learning how to get the best results from your IMS software. Please follow each step completely to insure you will get the valuable data, management tools and reports you expect. The IMS system is designed for any size water distribution system and set up so you can generate your own custom reports using Crystal Reports. To get started, please read this manual front to back. If you need help getting started with your new IMS software, the staff at Hurco will be happy to assist you. We can set up training by Webex, telephone, fax, or even onsite training. Please call to learn more about our training programs. You will have unlimited Webex and telephone support for one year from your purchase date. In this IMS software program, we give you numerous fields to collect and record important data about your water distribution system. As a general rule, these features are based on the recommendations of the American Water Works Association, (AWWA) and the National Fire Protection Association, (NFPA). It will be your responsibility to read and understand these recommendations. Hurco Technologies, Inc. will not be responsible for the incorrect collection of data or for the failure to follow AWWA and NFPA recommendations. Assign a competent worker with knowledge of your distribution system and capabilities to manage data in a software program. Always verify that the equipment you are using to collect data in the field is properly calibrated and certified. To set up training or for general information regarding your new IMS software, call Hurco Technologies, Inc. at Sincerely, Lyndon J. Hurley President, Hurco Technologies, Inc.
