Tolerances setup screen

The tolerances setup screen contains fields for specifying nominal
values, upper/lower warnings, upper/lower limits and minimum/
maximum bar graph levels for each dimension. An audio alert can also
be specified for warnings, limits, or both.

Tolerance ranges are indicated numerically and by bands of color on
the Current Value bar and dial screens.

The default bar and dial displays show Pass values in green, Warning
values in yellow, and Fail values in red.

These pass, warning and fail levels are shown in the bar graph of
current values to the right, and explained in the table below:

Tolerance

Description

Pass

Above low warning and below high warning. Pass
values fall within the specified range of acceptable
values.

Warning

Outside the range of pass values, but not at or
beyond the specified acceptable limits. Warnings
indicate the need to evaluate the process to prevent
the future generation of unacceptable, or failed
parts.

Fail

Outside the specified range of acceptable limits
specified.

Max/Min

Highest and lowest graph scale values. These
values determine the range of values plotted on the
graph. This range should be greater than the range
limits of acceptable limits.

The colors used to indicate pass, warning and fail can be
changed using the Display setup screen on page 123.
