Weibull++/ALTA Diagram Control Panel

The diagram control panel in Weibull++/ALTA contains the following options.

Main Page

Analyze analyzes the relationships of the components in the diagram and puts the reliability-wise configuration into a mathematical formula.

Plot creates a plot based on the analysis results. Clicking the Plot icon before the diagram has been analyzed will automatically perform the analysis and then plot the data. (See ReliaSoft Plot Utilities.)

QCP opens the Quick Calculation Pad (QCP), which allows you to obtain reliability results based on the algebraic solution for the diagram.

Transfer to BlockSim is available only if BlockSim is activated on your computer. It exports the blocks into a new BlockSim simulation diagram. All the blocks must be associated with a published model before they can be exported.

The Analytical area displays the status and results of the analysis. If the light is green, as shown below, then the diagram has been analyzed. If the light is red, then the diagram has not been analyzed. An analyzed diagram will remain in the analyzed state unless a change is made to the structure of the diagram (e.g., a block is added or changed, a connector is removed, etc.).

You can click the (...) button to display the algebraic solution for the diagram in the Equation Viewer.

The Information area displays information for the diagram (if a block is not currently selected) or for the selected block.

Data Sheets Page

The Data Sheets page contains a list of all of the data sheets in the project that are available for use in the diagram.

You can drag a data sheet into the diagram to create a standard block. You can use any data sheet in any Weibull++ life data or ALTA life-stress data folio, as long as it has been calculated and is not using one of the competing failure modes distributions.
