Compiling Summary Statistical Reports
This section tells you how to use MultiReview to compile summary statistical reports on the following data
collected from your traces.
•
Peak-acceleration data
•
Peak-excursion data
•
Time-domain data
Compiling a Peak-Acceleration Summary Report
A peak acceleration summary report shows, for each mark in each file, the frequency at which the maximum
acceleration was recorded and the amplitude of that acceleration for each of the X, Y, and Z traces. The report can
summarize data from up to 50 log files.
Different log files can have different settings for time-domain format, filter, and FFT sample size, so when
compiling a report, MultiReview uses the same settings for all files. The settings are determined by the following.
•
The settings for the most-recent log file opened (other than a comparison file).
•
The settings you make using the
Settings
menu items.
The default report format uses a vertical layout for each of the X, Y, and Z traces: the table of amplitude data is
listed first, and the table of frequency data follows below the amplitude data. You have the option of choosing a
horizontal layout: the table of frequency data is listed to the right of the table of amplitude data.
Different log files can have different annotations for the marks in the file, so by default, the report identifies the
marks as Mark1, Mark2, Mark
n
…,
and so on. You have the option of having the report identify the marks by using
the annotations for the marks from the first file you open.
