The Fault Tree Dashboard

The Relyence Fault Tree Dashboard gathers and organizes your Fault Tree data to provide a holistic overview of your product or system. You can create any number of Fault Tree Dashboards and customize them to your needs. 

For complete details on Relyence Dashboard capabilities, please refer to the  Getting Started with the Relyence Dashboard topic for an introductory overview, the Customizing the Relyence Dashboard topic for information on creating and customizing Dashboards to suit your needs, and the Managing Dashboards topic for details on setting properties, deleting, and duplicating Dashboards.

Relyence Dashboards are created by adding widgets from the Relyence Dashboard Editor. The Dashboard widgets includes a variety of charts, tables, and graphs aggregating data into a high-level visual format. The following applies to all Dashboard widgets:

  • Widgets can be expanded to full-screen size of viewing. Click the Maximize/Minimize icon in the upper right corner of the widget to expand and collapse a widget.
  • Drilldown is supported in many widgets. For example, clicking on a row in a table-based widget will open the underlying Analysis and take you to the selected data. 
  • Data in table-based widgets can be exported to an Excel-based report. Click the Export Report icon in the upper right corner of a widget to create an Excel report.
  • For performance reasons, table-based widgets are limited to 50 rows of data. To view all the data, utilize the Excel Report feature.

Each widget has a unique set of Properties to allow you to customize it to suit your needs. The listing below describes the available widgets and their associated property settings.

All widgets except for those in the General group have these Properties:

  • Analyses: You can choose which Analyses you want the widget to use for data gathering. The dropdown list displays a listing of Analyses that pertain to the widget (i.e. FMEA Analyses for FMEA widgets). You can choose one Analysis or multiple Analyses.
  • Use sample data: When selected, the widget will show a randomly generated set of data. 
  • Use My Titles: When selected, the Title and Subtitle fields appear for you to enter your own titles for the widget when displayed. If not set, Relyence uses default titles and subtitles.

All widgets that are available for Relyence Products that use an Analysis Tree may include the following Properties:

  • Only include the selected Subsystem: If you want to include only a specific subsystem in the widget, select the Only include the selected Subsystem checkbox. You must have only a single Analysis selected in the Analyses list to be able to select a Subsystem. When selected, choose the Subsystem from the Analysis Tree list you want to include.
  • Only include <data> from a selected Subsystem: If you want to include only the data (i.e. Parts, Incidents, etc.) from a specific subsystem, or branch of a subsystem, in the widget, select the Only include <data> from a selected Subsystem checkbox. You must have only a single Analysis selected in the Analyses list to be able to select a Subsystem or Subsystem branch. When selected, choose the Subsystem from the Analysis Tree list you want to include. To include the Subsystem and its branch, select the Include children checkbox.

Additional Properties that appear for specific widgets are noted below.
