Runtime
History charts are available as part of the Monitor and Results tabs.
Group variable mapping occurs in the Procedure definition part of the test. If more than one type of group
is available, the Monitor for Change box of the History Chart Properties contains a drop-down selection
button. The default value is Current Cycle Index. Other variables listed in the Monitor for Change box
are variables specified in the Save Variables box of the Map Variables window.
Analysis
History charts are also available in data analysis.
If more than one type of block is available, select a value from the drop-down list. The default value is
Cycle. Other variables listed in this box are variables specified in the Save Variables box of the Map
Variables window.
If an invalid cycle is selected for the chart, a warning icon is shown with the error message, “Invalid cycle
values are not plotted.”
Display Name
This is the name that is shown for the object in the application. It is a required property so the box cannot
be empty. The default is the type of the chart and the number indicating how many are on the Display tab,
such as Cycle Statistics Table 1. You can also click in the box and type a new name.
Note:
The Display Name is only used in the event of validation errors.
Visibility Panel
Visibility Panel
For Docking, select where on the monitor you want the test-run display to be positioned, Top, Left, Bottom,
Right, or Fill, where the display fills the entire tab or panel.
Show Condition lets you show or hide the test-run displays, depending on the condition of the variable
expression. For example, you could set up a condition to check the variable containing the specimen type
for a Set Variable test-run display to make visible the diameter only when the specimen type is round, but
hidden for a rectangular specimen. Likewise, you can use two more Set Variable test-run displays for
width and length to be visible if the specimen type is rectangular but hidden when the specimen type is
round.
