How do I configure the KPI: Mean Time Between Failure?
The standardized KPI, 'Mean Time Between Failure', can be monitored via the KPI Details page and also via the MTBF Report. Here you learn how to configure it in the Admin app.
From the KPI panel on the machine page, click on the menu option
‘Configuration’ for Mean Time Between Failure. You will then be taken to
the configuration page.
Here you need to select an appropriate sensor to
provide input data for the formula:
MTBF = Uptime / Number of repairs
1. Status (availability): This sensor needs to be supplying data on the
current status of your machine. Is it actively running or not? The
virtual or physical sensor need to provide the following values: "0" for
"OFF", "1" when the machine is operating normally, "2" if the machine
is in failure.
2. The target panel allows you to define an ideal target value for your MTBF.
3. You can set up cautionary and emergency targets, which behave in a similar way to sensor thresholds. When the MTBF crosses a threshold an event will be triggered, which will be displayed in the KPI timeline, and may trigger a notification if these are enabled. Keep in mind that the you want the MTBF to be as long as possible, so the cautionary threshold should be a lower value than the 'target', and the emergency threshold should be even lower.
Once this is done, you have enough to click save, upon which your KPI will become active.
