The Failure History By Asset plot allows you to determine patterns in the failures such as if they are occurring at random, or close together, or more frequently over time. You can view a timeline that shows when each failure occurred for an asset if the data for an analysis contains failure dates for one or more assets. If the data for an analysis contains failure dates for one or more pieces of equipment, you can view a timeline that shows when each failure occurred for each piece of equipment.
Note: Interaction with charts is not available on touch-screen devices.
For each piece of equipment included in your analysis, Failure History By Asset shows when each failure occurred. The pieces of equipment are listed along the y-axis of the timeline. Dates are listed along the x-axis. The timeline illustrates the general distribution of failures over time for the pieces of equipment included in the analysis. It can also be used as a tool for identifying which pieces of equipment do not fit the normal failure distribution pattern. The timeline is not intended to provide specific information about failures and dates.
The range of dates displayed along the x-axis is determined by the failure dates that exist. The timeline will always include all failure dates, including those that occurred outside the Analysis Period.
The start date of the analysis period is always designated on the timeline by a green line. If the start date is the same as the first failure date, the green mark will appear directly on the y-axis. The end date of the analysis period is indicated on the timeline by a green line if it is set to a specific date. The end date is not shown on the timeline if you have selected I want to use today's date as the end date for this analysis.
