Quick Parameter Estimator Wizard View

To use the Wizard view of the Quick Parameter Estimator (QPE), simply follow the prompts on each page. The first page will present and describe three different types of models that you can build with the QPE. Below are the three models and the kind of information you'll need to provide in subsequent pages.

To build a Reliability model you need to provide information about:

How age affects the product's reliability.
The product's intended design life and the estimated warranty time.
Best-case, worst-case and most likely unreliability estimates for the product at the end of the design life and warranty time.

To build an Event occurrence model you need to provide information about:

Whether age affects the probability of the event's occurrence.
Best-case, worst-case and most likely estimates for how often the event will occur.

To build a Task duration model you need to provide information about:

Best-case, worst-case and most likely estimates for how long it will take to complete the task.

The last window will display the tool's selected distribution and the calculated parameters. It will also provide one of the two options described below.

If you opened the QPE from an analysis folio or utility, the Update button will be available in case you wish to update that window using the selected distribution, calculated parameters and selected time units.
In Weibull++/ALTA, if you opened the QPE from the Ribbon, the Finish & Copy button will be available in case you wish to copy the parameters results to the Windows Clipboard.
