The Drilling tab of the Cyberloop EDR application allows users to monitor drilling processes. The main part of the Drilling tab contains charts and drilling parameters such as Rig Activity, Bit Depth, Hole Depth traces by default. The traces of other charts are adjusted by the user.
On the right panel are placed scaling, scrolling, and mode buttons. Selected range can be shifted by arrow controls. Single arrow control shifts the range to currently selected range Up or Down.
Click on Scale button opens modal window with available scaling steps. Scale of the selected range for the TIME mode with following steps:

Scale of the selected range for the DEPTH mode with following steps:
10m - 20m - 50m - 100m - 200m.
The drilling parameters can be monitored in Depth mode or Time mode. If the Depth mode is selected the charts are plotted depending on the hole depth. If the Time mode is selected the charts are plotted depending on the time.
To switch to one of the two modes, click on the corresponding button on the right panel. When the monitoring mode is switched on selected the button is highlighted with green color.
The representation of the charts gets updated in real-time if the Live mode is turned on. To turn it on click on the Live button so it is highlighted with green color. When the Live mode is tuned on, the selected range will be reset to the live values.
