Weibull++ Life Data Folio

Subset IDs

Batch Auto Run

The Batch Auto Run utility allows you to extract data subsets from an existing data set. For example, consider a data sheet that contains the failure times for a product manufactured in two different plants. By using Batch Auto Run, you can filter the data by manufacturing plant and then analyze the failures from each plant separately.

Batch Auto Run Setup

To use the tool, you must first define a subset ID for each data point you want to extract, making sure that the data points you wish to group together all have the same subset ID.

Note: The subset ID can be any text up to 30 characters, including spaces. For example, “A _ _ X” is not the same as “A _ X” where “ _ ” is used to designate a space.

Open the utility by choosing Life Data > Options > Batch Auto Run or by clicking the icon on the Main page of the control panel.

You will be presented with a list of all the subset IDs in your data sheet, as shown in the following example.

Double-click an available subset ID to include it in the batch auto run process or drag the subset ID to the Selected Subset IDs column. If you have more than one subset ID column in your data sheet, a drop-down list will be available to allow you to choose which column to use in the analysis.

You can also click the Select All Available button to automatically include all subset IDs in the column in the batch auto run process. Each selected subset ID will be extracted to its own separate data sheet at the end of the batch auto run process.

Processing Preferences

You can set your preferences for how the data will be processed on the Processing Preferences tab. When you change the settings and click OK, your preferences will be saved as the default settings for the next time you apply the batch auto run process for any Weibull++ life data folio.

If you select the Always place data in a new sheet option, the data will be extracted to another new data sheet with the same name as the subset ID plus an increment to reflect the number of additional data sheets that have been created for the same subset ID. The increments can be separated by parentheses, a dash or a space. The following example shows the increment number separated by parentheses.
