Defining Thresholds

Use the following guidelines when defining thresholds:

• The threshold name must be unique to any other threshold that exists in the current scenario.
• The sample value and current value must be within the minimum and maximum value limits.
• The sample current, minimum, and maximum values must correspond to the data type specified within the current threshold.

To define a threshold, follow these steps:

1. Click the Threshold Definer tab in the Threshold Manager.
2. Click the cursor on a blank line in the Threshold List area. If other thresholds are listed, click after the last threshold or from the Threshold menu, select New.
3. Enter the appropriate information for the new threshold.
4. Click Add to add the threshold to the current scenario.
5. The threshold displays in the Thresholds List area.
   Optional: Add any comments about the threshold in the Comment field.
6. Click Update to confirm your changes.
7. Select Save in the File menu to save your threshold.
