Before you begin
- You have a Run with an identified anomaly open in Explore with the affected Channel plotted.
How anomaly investigation works
When a signal shows unexpected behavior, you can zoom into the affected time range and plot related Channels side by side to determine whether the anomaly is isolated to a single signal or correlated across multiple signals. Comparing related Channels helps narrow down the root cause, such as a sensor failure, an environmental event, or a system-level issue.Investigate an anomaly
- Use range controls to zoom into the time range where the anomaly occurs.
- Add related Channels to the same Panel or an adjacent Panel to compare signals.
- Optional: Create a Calculated Channel to derive a signal that highlights the anomaly, such as a difference or ratio between two Channels.
- Optional: Add an Annotation to mark the anomaly for review or to share with your team.
- Optional: Share the workspace to send the exact state of your investigation to another engineer.
- Optional: Create a Rule to automatically detect the same anomaly in future Runs.
