Selecting Test Set Usage

Feature Description

 

Test Set Folders are color coded by their usage

 
eXpress uses color coded test sets and allows them to be designated according to their usage. There are 4 standard usages (Detection & Isolation, Detection Only, Isolation Only, Prognostics). There are two Advanced featured tests Sets used in Advanced licencing capabilities (Not featured in this help file). Finally there is a Non-Diagnostic test set designation to allow building tests that will not be used in diagnostics (Automatically building effects, etc.Dynamic Causes on Failure Effects).
 
When Diagnostics are run Fault Detection and Isolations Tests [Ex. ] will show up in both the Detection Candidates window and Isolation Candidates window
When Diagnostics are run Fault detection only tests [Ex.. ] will only show up in the Detection Candidates window.
When Diagnostics are run Fault Isolation only tests [Ex. ] will only show up in the Isolation Candidates window.
When Diagnostics are run Prognostic tests [Ex. ] will only show if the Prognostic Candidates window is selected
Template-Based Fault Detection Tests are only used in The Maintenance   (Advance feature requiring special Licencing)
Explicit Inferences Tests is part of a feature under development for future Design Statistics Reporting
