L3 Analyzing Your Test

5.8 Using Min/Max/Avg Tool One of the more commonly used analysis tools is the Min/Max/Avg tool. It often used to measure the maximum stress or load values, or to measure the average of all data points within a scope segment.

5.8.1 Maximum Algorithm The Maximum algorithm is sometimes called the peak, but it should not be confused with peak when using peak & valleys. The Maximum algorithm is the greatest value of a variable within the data stream for a scope segment. The scope segment may be the entire test duration or a segment within the duration.

The Min/Max/Avg tool may be used with load, distance and time.

The Min/Max/Avg tool has two functions. Min/Max is one function. Se- lecting above the curve will deliver the Maximum result, while selecting below the curve will report the Minimum results.

The Maximum algorithm reports the greatest value of load or distance for your test setup.

Average Function

Min/Max Function

The Average function calculates the average of all data points within the scope segment. The average can be load or distance.
