"Analysis" tab

1. "Analysis" tab
In the tab Analysis, the system displays telematic data from the sensor for a chosen time interval, filters local parameter fluctuations and displays the result as a chart.
To perform analysis, you need to select the type of sensor that records values of the paramater you want, and then you need to choose a time interval.
Geographic presentation of controlled parameters allows to observe what parameters tend to change. Above that, it is also possible to analyze mutial influence of several parameters and prognose changes of their values.

"Map scale" button

2. "Map scale" button
With this button, you can switch map scale. The following variants are available:
  • scale according to actual range of values;
  • scale according to possible range of values (for example, in fuel level chart - from zero amount of fuel to full tank).
     
    To zoom in/zoom out the chart area, you need to:
  • in the chart area, right-click and drag frame area so that you choose some interval:
To reset initial map scale, click the button Map scale .

"Request" button

3. "Request" button
Using this button, you can request analysis for a chosen time interval. You can set the time interval in the Query Panel.

Max/Min

4. Max/Min
These are parameters of chart values display: minimum and maximum values received from sensor. Select min. or max. to see min. or max. values of the selected parameter.
Constructing charts with max. and min. values is performed with the help of algorithms. After data analysis, these algorithms select next bigger value or equal value to display it as max.value, and next lesser value or equal value, to display as min. value. 
 
  • Here is an example of a chart with max. values of the sensor "Coolant temperature, Cо". Time interval is almost two months.
 
  • And here is an example of a chart with min. values of the sensor "Coolant temperature, Cо". Time interval is almost two months.

Sum/difference

5. Sum/difference
In order to evaluate some parameters, it's rational to analyze the sum of two values or the difference between two values. To do this, you need to request analysis of data from two sensors, and to put a tick beside the selected parameter. As a result, an additional chart (in green color) will appear. In this chart, you will see the sum of values or the difference between them.
For example, to evaluate technical state of the engine, it would be rational to analyze the values of required torque and actual torque. If the difference between these two values becomes bigger, it means that there are malfunctions.
 
  • This is an example of difference between values of required and actual torque:
 
  • In this example the sum of values of required and actual torque is displayed:
6

Per day

This option allows to display daily data from sensors.
The possibility to see daily data allows to analyze extreme values during the chosen time interval.
 
  • This is an example of daily values of oil pressure in the engine during six months of operation.
7

Initial

7. Initial
Initial chart is always enabled by default.
 
  • You can disable initial chart only when using a filter:
8

Filter

When the filter is activated, an additional chart appears.
Below is an example of the filter usage applied to daily values of engine oil temperature during half a year of operation:
With the help of the slider bar  you can set the degree of data smoothing in the chart.

Extrapolation

Extrapolation is an approximate estimation of a function's values in the points that lie outside of the set time interval, basing on the values in certain points of the time interval.
Application of predictive maintenance algorithms by extrapolating of charts of controlled parameters allows to predict a time interval at the end of which the value of a parameter will exceed the limits of the acceptable range. This information will allow to identify and eliminate malfunction in advance.
 
This tool becomes activated when the filter is activated:
Below is an example of the filter usage and the extrapolation of the chart with values of engine oil temperature:
With the help of the slider bar you can set the range limits for time of extrapolation that will be used.
10

Interval

This option allows to highlight a certain part of a chart. To do this, enable the option by selecting the checkbox: , then go to the chart area and left-click at the beginning of the required interval and at the end of it. As a result, selected interval will be highlighted in the chart as demonstrated below:
11

CAN DTC

CAN (Controller Area Network) is an industry network standard designed primarily to connect various sensors and executive devices into one network.
When you put a tick, the following table with CAN errors will appear in the area below the chart:
In the CAN errors table, information is displayed about errors detected on the monitored object for the chosen time interval.
 
  • SPN (Suspect Parameter Number) number of the parameter that the code relates to (location of the malfunction).
  • FMI (Failure Mode Indicator) identifier of the malfunction type (type of malfunction).
You can find settings of the CAN-diagnostics directory in the Sensors section.
12

List of sensors

The list of sensors contains information about sensors (enabled in the Telemetry Panel). To edit the list of sensors, see the section Settings - Telemetry.
In the chart, values of sensors with selected checkbox are displayed (as you can see, checkbox for the sensor is selected in the list on the left; the line and the chart for this sensor are red). If you want to see two charts at the same time, you need to select a second sensor from the list with the mouse cursor (the line and the chart of this sensor are blue):
13

Chart area

In the chart area, curves of values for selected sensors are displayed.
To change the scale of the chart, see the subsection Map scale.
To move in the chart area, you need to press and hold right mouse button.
To scroll along the vertical axis, use the mouse wheel.
