Creating process simulations

To create a process simulation, execute the following steps:

1.Access the Management Process simulation menu.

2.On the main screen toolbar, click on .

3.On the screen that will be displayed, enter an ID # and a name for the simulation.

4.Fill out the following fields in the Configuration tab:

# of readings: Enter the number of readings to be made on each sample.

# of samples: Enter the number of samples that will be collected.

Limits: Select the limit type for the specifications:

▪Bilateral: Will define the upper and lower limits of the specification.

▪Unilateral up: Will only define the upper limit of the specification.

▪Unilateral down: Will only define the lower limit of the specification.

Decimal places: Enter the number of decimal places that will be used in the readings of the characteristic.

Measurement unit: Select the measurement unit that will be used in the measurement.

Nominal value: Enter the expected value for the variable characteristic in question.

Upper tol.: Enter the acceptable value above the nominal value for the process to be considered under statistical control. Through this tolerance, the system automatically calculates the USL - Upper specification limit for the characteristic in question.

Lower tol.: Enter the acceptable value below the nominal value for the process to be considered under statistical control. Through this tolerance, the system automatically calculates the LSL - Lower specification limit - for the characteristic in question.

Edit simulation after saving: Check this field for the system to display the process simulation screen after saving and closing the data screen of the simulation in question.

Save the record.
