Configuring the Analysis

Each analysis rule has specific requirements. Therefore, the procedures for configuring an analysis and its requirements are documented in the "Configure \<analysis name> Rule" \topic found under each analysis.

   The Choose Analysis Template window opens.

7. Click OK so that the system creates a new Model analysis.

   The Analysis Properties window opens.

8. In the Name box, assign the analysis a name.

9. Click on the Analysis Rule down-arrow and select the Sigmafine Balance (or other analysis) rule.

10. Click on the Time Rule down-arrow and select the Periodic time rule.

11. Under Analysis Rule, click the Settings button to configure the analysis rule.

    A configuration window opens allowing you to configure the analysis settings for the analysis rule you have selected (in our example we chose Sigmafine Balance.)
