Absolute Value Bar Chart
Note |
This INCA feature is available only if the INCA-EV-Instruments add-on is installed. For more information, see the INCA Installation Guide. Select ? > Manuals and Tutorials. |
The Absolute Value Bar Chart provides a bar graph that displays the measure variable and highlights the variable value outside of user-defined limits. For example, a battery measurement displays the cell voltages and highlights cells whose voltage exceeds user-defined limits. This allows you to get an overview of the battery cell voltage values and to identify cells that exceed a voltage limit at a given point in time. The cell voltages are represented by vertical bars, sorted from left to right from lower to higher cell numbers.
This instrument consists of the following components:
1 Bar Chart InformationNumber of Signals
Displays the number of measure variables assigned to the instrument.
Average
Displays the average value of all measure variables assigned to the instrument.
Total Values
Displays the total value of all measure variables assigned to the instrument.
Min Value
Displays the minimum value of all measure variable assigned to the instrument.
Max Value
Displays the maximum value of all measure variable assigned to the instrument.
Neg Imbalance
Displays the highest negative deviation from the average value of all measure variable assigned to the instrument.
Pos Imbalance
Displays the highest positive deviation from the average value of all measure variable assigned to the instrument.
2 Absolute Value Bar ChartSignal values
The graph shows the measure variable values of all variables as vertical bars. The height of each bar represents the value of the specific measure variable. Measure variables whose values exceed the lower or upper limit are highlighted.
Bar Color | Description |
|---|---|
Color | Values exceeding the lower limit |

Color | Values exceeding the upper limit |
Limits
Upper and lower limits are shown as horizontal lines.
