Belt Velocity Chart

Previous pageReturn to chapter overviewNext page

 

The simulation produces an X-Y chart of the belt speed at selected points during the simulated period. Data is from the case currently being evaluated, that is operating case and dynamic case.

This chart can be viewed by:

Selecting the Home menu item.

Clicking the Velocity tab.

Media_MainScreenVelocityButtonDA

The thin gray line represents the planned full speed (from BA).

A table of the minimum and maximum values for each point will be displayed with the descriptions color coded to the lines. If you click on the colored box next to a specific description, the line will be hidden from the graph. If you click the box again (it should be white), then the line will reappear.

Media_BeltVelocityChartDA

The chart typically displays from start (0 time) to full simulation time. This range can be reduced by dragging the scroll bar between the chart and time axis labels.

Comments can be added using the "Comments" button in the lower right corner of the window:

Public Comments: The engineer's comments that will be displayed on the print out document.

Private Comments: The comments that will be only displayed in the file and will not be displayed on the print out document.

Reporting

A report with this chart can be created using the Print Current Report routine in DA or the Report routine in BA.

By right clicking on the chart, the user can either create a "csv" text file of the chart data or a "jpg" picture file of the image.
