11.3 Statistics The ME6000 program offers statistical analysis of measurements. The average, standard deviation and standard deviation in percentage are calculated, as well as machine performance index C and C . The upper and lower limits result from the set limit values. -
Page 38: Changing The Limit Values
Picture 43: Statistics The limits given in the set-up, if there are any, are used to calculate the CMK value. Otherwise, the limits from “CMK Settings” (see Changing the Limit Values) are used. NOTE The machine performance index CM and CMK are first calculated when more than 5 measurement values have been taken. -
