The workflow basically consists of the following steps:
import data
structure (group) data
evaluate data
export evaluation
In the program, this workflow is structured by arranging the program tabs from left to right.
Import data The measurement protocols can be imported from different sources. Special plugins are provided for this purpose. All available plugins are visible in the tab Import under Import Sources and can be opened by clicking on the button.
Structure data (group) In order to be able to analyze large data sets in a meaningful way, it may be necessary to structure the data set. This structuring can be done in the tab Grouping. To structure the dataset, filters can be set and various groups can be formed. A later performed analysis will always be executed on all defined groups. The results of the groups can be compared (graphical + tabular) afterwards.
At least one group must be created. This can contain e.g. all available data.
Analyze data There are different ways to analyze the data. A separate tab is available for each type of analysis. The following tabs are available for data analysis:
History and Statistics: Display of the measured value histories, calculation of statistical key figures and display of the distribution of the measured values.
Error Distribution: Calculation and display of the group specific error distribution and comparison of the error distribution with other groups
Graph Comparison: Display and comparison of any measured value curves in a diagram
Similarity Analysis: Calculation of the similarity of selected measured values based on cross correlation
Trend Analysis: Recognition of trends in measured value curves and calculation of compensation curves.
Within each analysis tab the respective configuration options and evaluations are displayed.
Export analysis Each analysis method has one or more specific export formats. These are listed in the top line of the respective tab. Depending on the analysis, overall overviews, tables, graphs or detailed reports can be created.
