Goal is to create a string signal that shows the different operation modes in a device at each time. Step 1. Create the sample modes using Values Search Tool, Advanced Search: Value Search Tool, Advanced Search Step 2. Create a continuous condition called “Mode” comprising all three (startup, steady state, shutdown), and assign a property to each capsule to identify the mode. for more information please look at the following link: Set property to a capsule Formula for creating the mode with property condition: $ShutDown = $Shutdown.setProperty("Mode", "ShutDown") $StartUp = $Startup.setProperty("Mode", "StartUp") $steady = $Steady.setProperty("Mode", "Steady") combineWIth($StartUp, $steady, $ShutDown) Step 3. Use the Formula Tool to create a string signal using the "mode with property" condition and shows the mode of the input signal at each time. Here is the formula for creating the string signal (Mode is the Mode with property condition in here) : $inputsignal.transformToSamples( $capsule -> sample($capsule.getStart(), $capsule.getproperty('Mode')), 10d)

Issues with different devices can lead to shutdowns and failures. In this example we want to monitor the duration of each operation mode of an input signal. This example can be used to monitor all the conditions that can lead to inefficient device performance. In order to monitor all operation modes we need to, 1. Create all the modes using Value Search Tool. a. StartUp (input < 75) b. ShutDown (input > 95) c. SteadyState (75 < input < 95) 2. Create a continuous condition called “Mode” comprising all three (startup, steady state, shutdown), and assign a property to each capsule to identify the mode. for more information please look at the following post: A Guide to Working with Capsule Properties $ShutDown = $Shutdown.setProperty("Mode", "ShutDown") $StartUp = $Start.setProperty("Mode", "StartUp") $steady = $Steady.setProperty("Mode", "Steady") combineWIth($StartUp, $steady, $ShutDown) 3. Finally, calculate the total time per mode using Histogram Tool. For more information on Histogram Tool please see the following link: Histogram Tool Content Verified DEC2023
