1 | Num Levels: Specify the number of levels for your factors. Currently, you can create single-level designs with 2-5 levels. Note that all factors contain the same number of levels. If a factor has less number of levels, you will have fill the remaining with dummary levels. | ||||||||||
2 | Num Factors: Specify the number of factors in your design. You can create designs for up to 15 factors. The number of factors that you can choose depends on the number of levels you pick for your design. | ||||||||||
3 | Design:
Select the design (typically a Latin square design). The available Latin square designs depends on the number of levels and number of factors you specify earlier. The available designs are as follows:
| ||||||||||
4 | Randomize: Specify whether you want to randomize your runs when you create the design. Randomization helps with minimize the effect of unknown noise factors on your study. | ||||||||||
5 | Signal Factors: Specify if you have signal factors in your design (currently unavailable). | ||||||||||
6 | Noise Levels: Specify the number of noise levels (these are runs across the outer array) used to estimate mean and standard deviation | ||||||||||
7 | Factor Name: Specify a name for the factor. Make sure the names are unique across all factors and that the names do not contain special characters. | ||||||||||
8 | Level 1: Specify the value for level 1 for each factor. | ||||||||||
9 | Level 2: Specify the value for level 2 for each factor. Similarly complete the values for all levels. If a level does not exist, leave it blank. | ||||||||||
10 | Clear/Analyze Design: If this checkbox is set at Create design then a new design is created and saved to the worksheet. If the checkbox is set to Analyze design then any data stored on the worksheet is analyzed and the results of the analysis is updated. | ||||||||||
11 | Help Button: Click on this button to open the help file for this topic. | ||||||||||
12 | Cancel Button: Click on this button to cancel all changes to the settings and exit this dialog box. | ||||||||||
13 | OK Button: Click on this button to save all changes and compute the outputs for this analysis. |
1 | Terms Included:
Specify the terms to include in your model for analysis. The available options are:
| ||||||||
2 | Objective:
Specify the objective of your study. The available options are:
| ||||||||
3 | Set Terms: Select the terms to include in the analysis. This textbox is enabled if you specify Manual for the previous setting. You will need to specify the terms that you want to include separating the terms with a semi-colon. For example, A;C will include two terms A and C for this analysis. | ||||||||
4 | Analyze Design: Make sure the checkbox for Analyze design is selected if you would like to generate analysis results. |
0 | Pick Charts: Select the charts you would like to display for this analysis. Click on checkbox for Mean plots if you want to generate the plot of the mean values. Click on the checkbox for Stdev plots if you want to plot the results for standard deviation values. Click on the checkbox for SN Ratio plots if you want to plot the results for the Signal to Noise ratios. |
1 | Title: The system will automatically pick a title for your chart. However, if you would like to override that with your own title you can specify a title for your chart here. Note that this input is optional. |
2 | Sub Title: The system will automatically pick a subtitle for your chart. However, if you would like to override that with your own subtitle you can specify a subtitle for your chart here. Note that this input is optional. |
3 | X Label: The system will automatically pick a label for the x-axis. However, if you would like to override that with your own label for the x-axis you can specify a different label here. Note that this input is optional. |
4 | Y Label: The system will automatically pick a label for the y-axis. However, if you would like to override that with your own label for the y-axis you can specify a different label here. Note that this input is optional. |
5 | X Axis: The system will automatically pick a scale for the x-axis. However, if you would like to override that with your values for the x-axis, you can specify them here. The format for this input is to specify the minimum, increment, and maximum values separated by a semi-colon. For example, if you specify 10;20 then the minimum x-axis scale is set at 10 and the maximum x-axis scale is set at 20. If you specify 10;2;20, then, in addition to minimum and maximum values, the x-axis increment is set at 2. Note that this input is currently disabled and you will not be able to change this setting. |
6 | Y Axis: The system will automatically pick a scale for the y-axis. However, if you would like to override that with your values for the y-axis, you can specify them here. The format for this input is to specify the minimum, increment, and maximum values separated by a semi-colon. For example, if you specify 10;20 then the minimum y-axis scale is set at 10 and the maximum y-axis scale is set at 20. If you specify 10;2;20, then, in addition to minimum and maximum values, the y-axis increment is set at 2. Note that this input is optional. |
7 | Horizontal Lines: If you want to add a few extra horizontal reference lines on top of your chart you can specify the values here. The format for this input is numeric values separated by semi-colon. For example, if you specify 12;15 then two horizontal lines are plotted at Y = 12 and Y = 15 respectively. Note that this input is optional. |
8 | Vertical Lines: If you want to add a few extra vertical reference lines on top of your chart you can specify the values here. The format for this input is numeric values separated by semi-colon. For example, if you specify 2;5 then two vertical lines are plotted at X = 2 and X = 5 respectively. Note that this input is optional. |
