The Readings Tab (Measurement)

This tab displays all parameters which have been selected for measurement from the Local Monitoring screen. Since parameters are for multiple jobs, job details are also displayed.

Recording Readings Manually

Enter readings in the Reading field. The background color is set based on limits specified for the parameter:

Green - The reading is within control limits.

Yellow - The reading is out of control limits.

Red - The reading is out of specification limits.

The reading displayed is the setting value plus actual reading entered.

For a manned station, if the reading is entered manually, it is saved when you press Enter.

The current reading serial number in the current sample is displayed as the Reading No.

Select or deselect the Chart column depending on whether you wish to view charts for the readings of the parameter on the Charts tab. Upto four Critical parameters are selected by default. If no critical parameters exist, the first four parameters are selected.

Display Job No. check box is provided in Reading Tab. When user selects Display Job No. then Job NO. can be seen in the grid else can not be seen. Size of the Part and Parameter column can be changed.

 

Sample Frequency

Screen should check that readings for parameter are taken as frequently as defined in Sample Frequency in Standard QAP. If readings are not taken within time and in company setting user checked Display/Capture Time to Take Reading then screen should notify that readings are not taken and its time to take reading. Notification will be different in manned and unmanned station. In case of manned station message will be displayed on screen. And in case of unmanned station message will be inserted in message table for all supervisor users. Supervisor user is one whose role is defined as "SUPER ". Sample frequency is made available for 100% inspection and sampling technique. Time to take reading message will not get display or recorded if check box of Display/Capture Time to Take Reading is not checked.

Deletion of the reading/Sample-

When the user presses the key F6 for any of the parameters for which readings are entered, then it would ask user "Are you sure you want to delete this reading?" with Yes/No. If the user clicks on No the reading is not deleted. If the user clicks on Yes then one reading deleted for that parameter

While deleting the sample it will check corrective action has been taken or not, if corrective action has been taken then it will display. "Corrective action has been taken. Do you want to delete the sample? " If the user clicks on No the sample is not deleted, if the user clicks on Yes the sample is deleted.

While deleting the sample it will check for Trend raised. If trend raised then it will display. "Trends have been raised. Do you want to delete the sample? " If the user clicks on No the sample is not deleted, if the user clicks on Yes the sample is deleted and trend will get reset.

When sample is completed & user Press F6 then system will prompt the message "Are you sure you want to delete this sample" & if user press Yes then

- It will check corrective action has been taken or not, if corrective action has been taken then it will display. "Corrective action has been taken. Do you want to delete the sample? " If the user clicks on No the reading is not deleted, if the user clicks on yes the sample for all parameter is deleted & then grid will show 0 / Sample Size

 

- If Trend raised then it will display. "Trends have been raised. Do you want to delete the sample? " If the user clicks on No the sample is not deleted, if the user clicks on yes then sample for all parameter get deleted & then grid will show 0 / Sample Size. If user press No then No sample for all parameter get deleted

 

Deletion of the reading/Sample – For Single Instrument Multiple Parameter

When all parameter have same reading serial no and sample is not completed i.e. in case of individual reading & user Presses F6 then system will prompt the message "Are you Sure Do you want to delete reading only for the selected Parameter?"

If user Presses 'Yes' then reading for selected parameter for current Reading serial No will get deleted & Reading serial No get updated for a parameter.

If user Presses 'No' then system will prompt a message - "Are you sure Do you want to delete reading for all parameters?" If user presses 'Yes' then reading for all parameters for current Reading serial No will get deleted & Reading serial No get updated for all parameter. If user presses ‘No’ then record will not deleted.

Job is of Single instrument multiple parameter having 3 Parameters. Sample Size is 3. First two parameter has taken 2 reading i.e. 2/3. Third Parameter has taken 1 reading i.e. 1/3. User tries to delete the reading of 3rd parameter. Message should display ‘Can not delete reading for the selected parameter as parameter is of Single Instrument.’

 

Remark for reading

After entering the reading, user can enter the remark for reading. Icon for Remarks – Click on this column i.e. on icon it will display the Remarks for Reading Screen with latest Sample No. and Reading No. If No Readings are taken for the parameter and try to click on icon it will display the message as ‘No readings taken for the parameters’.

If a remark is present then it will show the remarks for the selected reading else it will show the Reading Sample screen.

 

Single Switch Facility –

If Job is of single switch, i.e. there will be different instrument attached to different parameter, and different port for each parameter. All the parameters data will be dumped on the press of a single switch and if any one parameters data is not coming from the respective port then all the parameters data will be ignored and it would not update the database.

 

Do not accept the reading which are 20% [Configurable] more than specs limit-

 

Suppose if LSL value is 5 and USL value is 15 then 20% of USL Value- LSL value would be 3 and 20% of USL value- LSL value would be 17, so the permissible readings should between 3 and 17 any reading that is not within in this range should not be dumped to the database, but should be stored in the log file and the acknowledgement yellow light will not glow and the reading will be shown on the screen without incrementing the serial number.

Angle Parameter -

After user click on Measure button of frmMonitor screen, frmMeasurement screen will display. If parameter UOM is angle then Reading column of grdReadings show value in degree otherwise its show in decimal.

In manual mode enter value in decimal & pressing enter button on that Reading column it will convert to degree if parameter UOM is angle otherwise it remain as decimal.

In automatic mode when reading comes from port or from channel it will show the value in angle if parameter is of type Angle else value will be display in decimal

Display current sample No on Reading Tab–

 

If one of the parameter having sampling technique is ‘Sampling’ then column header name is "Sample No", will display just before the "Reading No" column.

If parameter-having sampling technique is ‘Sampling’ then "Sample No" column will show the current sample no.

If all selected parameter having sampling technique is "100% Inspection" then column header name change from "Sample No" to "Count" & is position is just before the "Reading No" column. Reading No column will not be visible in case of 100% Inspection.

If parameter having sampling technique is ‘100% Inspection’ then "Count" column will show the count of all reading,

After deleting the reading or sample from Reading Tab or Chart Tab, then Sample no./Count should get updated.

 

LG Network Monitoring–

In case of LG Network Monitor When user launch measurement screen from Local Monitor with job i.e. already selected in another instance of ProQMS then system should prompt the message 'Selected job is already running in another instance of same PC'

 

In case of LG Network monitor when data receives in the Measurement screen and same parameter is launched in the global Monitor screen then Measurement screen should sends the signal to Global monitor screen for refreshing the reading and chart.

 

In case of LG Network monitor when user deletes the reading/sample or Add remarks or taken corrective action in the Measurement screen of Local Monitor and same parameter is launched in the global Monitor screen then Measurement screen should sends the signal to Global monitor screen for refreshing the reading and chart.

 

When user tries to delete the reading or sample from global monitor screen i.e. Global view of particular parameter and the same parameter is selected in the Measurement screen of Local Monitor then system should display the message ‘Cannot delete. Data collection is in progress’.
