Real-Time SPC Features & Enhancements
Real-Time SPC 7.7 provides a new way to automatically deploy and configure subscription components (products, processes, stations, etc.), control chart calculation, storage, and performance improvements, along with embedded product documentation.
Feature Addition: Automated Component Setup
User Benefit
Save time with the automatic setup of new products, processes, stations, and measures. With automated component setup, you can also easily update existing components.
Summary
This enhancement provides a way to create custom configurations to import thousands of new components as well as updates to existing components. Stay up-to-date automatically using the import schedule to update your components daily or less frequently, as needed.
Feature Enhancement: Locked Control Limits
User Benefit
Use constant control limits, based on a stable process, to quickly identify unexpected variation in your process.
Summary
This enhancement allows the user to determine how much data to use in the calculation of control limits. Once enough data has been collected, the control limits are locked on the chart. Real-Time SPC keeps these limits until you indicate a recalculation is necessary. The recalculation can be done using the most recent data or from a selected range of data.
Feature Enhancement: Embedded Product Documentation
User Benefit
Easily access our online assistance to guide you through using Real-Time SPC.
Summary
This enhancement provides a main Help link and extra assistance on import errors and warnings associated with the automated component configurations.
Real-Time SPC 7.5 provides additional ways to filter and visualize performance data along with important bug fixes and interface modifications.
Feature Enhancement: Control Charts with Date Time X Axis
User Benefit
Operators and Engineers can easily identify the timestamp associated with an individual observation or subgroup.
Summary
This enhancement adds the date and time information as the default label to the control chart’s x-axis. Now, users can choose to use either the date/time label or a sequential index value to identify the plotted points on a control chart.
Feature Addition: Current Performance Summary Data Range
User Benefit
The enhanced Data Range selector is now more flexible which allows Engineers to monitor overall quality performance over customized periods of time.
Summary
This enhancement provides an improved interface for selecting the time period to view metrics related to the performance of products, processes, and stations. In addition to viewing performance data based on shifts, users can now show data based on the last number of hours and days, along with a set start and end time.
