2. Under Filtering Tools, in the FT Transaction
Manager Topic/Device list, select the device from
which you want to load data points.
3. At the top of the dialog box, click Refresh Points.
The Data Points area at the bottom of the dialog box is
populated with data points for the selected device.
4. Double-click the data point that you want to use.
The data point appears in the Data Point box in the
Configure Performance Parameters dialog box.
TIP
To delete the data point that you have selected, click
Clear.
How do I access the dialog box?
1. On the Configure menu, click FactoryTalk Metrics >
Performance Parameters.
The Manage Performance Parameters dialog box appears.
2. Select the activity area for which you want to associate
machine states, and then click Configure.
The Configure Performance Parameters dialog box appears.
3. If necessary, select the FactoryTalk Transaction Manager
configuration for the activity area.
4. In the left pane of the dialog box, click Part Count.
The Part Count parameter is part of the Throughput value in the
OEE equation. It indicates how many parts have been produced by
the activity area. FactoryTalk Metrics compares the rate of items
produced to the value given for the ideal cycle time, so the unit of
measure is not important (however, it must be the same unit of
measure as the ideal cycle time).
