Elements |
The Elements tab enables you to define elements to include in specific types of tests. If a particular element (measurement type) is used in multiple tests, you only need to define it once.
To limit the display of information in the grid and maximize performance, use the filter to sort on test element ID.
The field in the top section of the tab defines the data that the software displays.
Test element ID
Unique identifier of the test element currently selected in the grid or that you are defining. This field has a list box. If the ID is already defined, its description displays to the right of the ID.
When you specify a test type ID that includes this element, its ID displays on the Test Results tab of the Data -> Equipment Activity -> Testing -> Test Results screen.
The fields in the bottom section of the tab specify information about the test element ID. Unless otherwise indicated, these fields are required.
Description
Description of the test element.
Procedures
Sequence of steps required to perform the test element.
Validate minimum value
If this box is checked, a minimum value may be entered in the field to the right. If a number is entered during the test, it must be equal to or more than the value set as the minimum here. This value must be less than or equal to the Validate Maximum value if that field is set as well.
Validate maximum value
If this box is checked, a maximum value may be entered in the field to the right. If a number is entered during the test, it must be equal to or less than the value set as the maximum here. This value must be more than or equal to the Validate minimum value if that field is set as well.
