Getting Started
Welcome to Cyzag Blueprint! This guide will help you get up and running with operator rounds and asset condition monitoring.
What You Can Do
With Cyzag Blueprint, you can:
- Complete operator rounds on mobile devices, even without network connectivity
- Capture readings for temperature, pressure, vibration, and other measurements
- Record observations with photos and notes when you spot issues
- Track asset conditions over time with historical data and trends
- Handover between shifts with complete visibility into what the previous shift observed
Your First Round
1. Log In
Open the mobile app (iOS or Android) or web application and log in with your credentials. Your supervisor will provide your username and password.
2. View Assigned Rounds
From the home screen, you'll see your assigned rounds for the current shift. Each round shows:
- Route name (e.g., "Morning Shift - Pulping Round")
- Number of stops (e.g., "8 stops")
- Due time (e.g., "Due by 8:00 AM")
- Status (Not Started, In Progress, or Completed)
3. Start a Round
Tap a round to begin. The app will guide you through each route stop in order.
4. Capture Readings at Each Stop
At each route stop, you'll see:
- Asset name (e.g., "Digester D-101")
- Location (e.g., "Unit A – Pulping, basement level")
- Readings to capture (e.g., Temperature, Pressure, Vibration)
- Work instructions with safety warnings and measurement procedures
Enter each reading value. The app will indicate if a reading is:
- Normal (within expected range)
- Warning (approaching limits)
- Alert (outside acceptable range)
5. Add Observations
If you notice anything unusual, you can:
- Add notes describing what you observed
- Take photos of equipment conditions or defects
- Flag issues for supervisor review
6. Complete the Round
After visiting all stops, mark the round as complete. Your data will sync automatically when you have network connectivity.
Don't worry if you lose connectivity during your round. All readings and photos are stored securely on your device and will sync automatically when you're back online. You can complete entire rounds without any network connection.
Understanding the Dashboard
After logging in on the web, supervisors and operators see a dashboard showing:
- Completion Rate – Percentage of rounds completed on time
- Total Rounds – All rounds for the current period
- In Progress – Rounds currently being executed
- Overdue – Rounds past their due time
- Open Work Items – Issues flagged for follow-up
The dashboard also shows:
- Overdue Rounds – Rounds that need immediate attention
- In Progress Rounds – Rounds currently being worked
- Upcoming Rounds – Rounds scheduled for the next 7 days
- Recent Activity – Latest completed stops and readings
Key Concepts
| Term | Description |
|---|---|
| Route | A predefined inspection path with specific stops (template) |
| Round | One execution of a route by an operator at a specific time |
| Route Stop | A location on the route where you inspect equipment |
| Reading | A measured value (temperature, pressure, vibration, etc.) |
| Observation | Notes, photos, and comments about equipment condition |
| Work Item | A task created to follow up on an issue found during a round |
Example: Morning Pulping Round
Here's what a typical round looks like at Blueprint Paper Mill:
6:00 AM – Operator John Smith starts the Morning Shift - Pulping Round
Stop 1: Digester D-101 (basement, offline)
- Records: Temperature 168°C, Pressure 5.5 bar, H-Factor 1150
- All readings normal, moves to next stop
Stop 2: Feed Pump P-404 (pump room, offline)
- Records: Discharge Pressure 12.5 bar, Amperage 48 A, Vibration 7.2 mm/s
- Vibration exceeds threshold → adds note: "Audible knocking from drive end bearing"
- Takes photo of pump bearing
- App automatically flags for supervisor review
Stop 3: Black Liquor Tank BL-02 (ground level, online)
- Records: Tank Level 65%, Temperature 82°C
- All normal, round complete
- All offline data syncs automatically
Outcome: 11 readings captured, 1 observation flagged, supervisor schedules bearing inspection.
