5.2.4 Stroking Rate Graph Detail

The stroking rate

detail screen
(“Stroking Rate
Graph” tab – see
Figure 5.5) graphically
shows the production
rate for a machine for
the last 8 hours, last 24
hours, or the current
run. The default is the
current run, but
clicking the “Last 8
Hours” or “Last 24
Hours” buttons near
the bottom of the
dialog box will change
the time scale.

This graph shows

the production rate in
strokes per minute as
an area graph in 10-
minute intervals
(unless a job is
changed, in which case the interval is terminated to keep the rates associated with the correct job). The
production rate for each die that is run that day on the machine appears in a different color.

The graph is arranged by time of day and can be zoomed if greater detail is desired from a section of

the total graph. To zoom in on the graph, move the mouse pointer to one corner of the area to enlarge,
hold down the left mouse button, and without letting up on the button, move the mouse to the other
corner of the area. When the mouse is being dragged to the second corner, a rectangle will show the
zoom area. Note that after a zoom, the graph can be zoomed again to go even further in. To restore the
graph to the full view, click on the “Undo Zoom” button.

To export the graph to a file or clipboard for use by other windows programs, click in the “Export”

button. A window will appear with choices about where to send the graph.

To print the graph, click on the “Print” button. The graph will be sent to the default windows

printer.
