Quick Guide to Output Management

You are viewing an old version of the documentation. You can switch to the documentation of the latest version by clicking the top-right corner of the page.

This section introduces the operations related to output management.

Output management provides two main functions:

  • Quality judgment: Evaluate the measurement data of the project to determine whether the target object meets predefined quality standards or specifications. Quality judgment can be used to evaluate all the measurement items as a whole and finally obtain the overall quality judgment result of the project. You can configure the comprehensive judgment rule or custom judgment rules for quality judgment.

  • Communication output: Can be used to customize the output content. By default, the Mech-MSR software outputs only the overall quality judgment result of the project. This function allows you to customize the output of the project. For example, you can add the measurement result (judgment result and measured value) of a specific measurement item to the output.

  • Quality judgment and communication output should be set per project.

  • After the project is run, the overall quality judgment result (OK or NG) of the project will be displayed on the top of the graphical programming workspace. If quality judgment has not been set for the project, the overall quality judgment result of the project will be OK by default.

The following operations are mainly introduced:

Configure the Comprehensive Judgment Rule for the Project

The comprehensive judgment rule can be used to evaluate the measurement data of multiple measurement items as a whole. If the result of any measurement item is unqualified (NG), the result of the whole project is NG. Only if the results of all measurement items are OK, the overall judgment result of the project is OK.

To configure the comprehensive judgment rule, follow these steps:

  1. On the toolbar of Mech-MSR, select Output Management  Quality judgment .

  2. In the Quality judgment tab, set the Select project parameter to the desired project, and then select the Comprehensive option.

  3. In the Select Measurement Items area, select the measurement items to be used for comprehensive judgment, and then click the Apply button.

    add comprehensive rule
  • After configuration, the status of the project set by the Select project parameter changes from “Unconfigured” to “Configured”.

  • The above procedure can also be used to modify the measurement items involved in the comprehensive judgment.

Configure Custom Judgment Rules for the Project

Custom judgment rules are used to meet complex quality judgment needs. You can configure multiple custom judgment rules, and each rule can contain multiple measurement items.

The fit relationship between the judgment rules and measurement items is as follows:

  • If all measurement items under a judgment rule are unqualified (NG), the judgment rule is NG.

  • If any of the judgment rules is unqualified (NG), the quality judgment result of the whole project is NG.

To configure custom judgment rules for the project, follow these steps:

  1. On the toolbar of Mech-MSR, select Output Management  Quality judgment .

  2. In the Quality judgment tab, set the Select project parameter to the desired project, and select the Customized option.

    add custom rule
  3. In the Judgment rules area, click the Add rules button.

  4. In the pop-up Select Measurement Items dialog box, select the measurement items you need, and then click the OK button.

    add custom rule
  5. Repeat the previous two steps to add more judgment rules, and then click the Apply button.

    add custom rule 2

To delete a custom judgment rule, click delete behind the custom judgment rule in the Judgment rules area, and then click the Apply button.


In a project, one measurement item can be included in only one custom judgment rule. If you want to add a measurement item to another custom judgment rule, you need to delete the measurement item from the current custom judgment rule before adding it to another rule.

To delete a measurement item from a custom judgment rule, in the Judgment rules area, click the delete behind the measurement item, and then click the Apply button.

To add a measurement item to a custom judgment rule, follow these steps:

  1. In the Judgment rules area, click edit behind the custom judgment rule.

  2. In the pop-up Select Measurement Items dialog box, select the measurement items you want to add, and then click the OK button.

  3. Click the Apply button.

Add Measurement Items to the Project Output

To add measurement items to the output of the project, follow these steps:

  1. On the toolbar of Mech-MSR, select Output Management  Communication output .

  2. On the Communication output tab, set the Select project parameter to the desired project, and then click the Add button in the Output area.

    communication output
  3. In the pop-up Select Measurement Items dialog box, select the measurement items you need, and then click the OK button.

    select output measurement items
  4. In Output area, set the Corrective compensation parameter for the measurement item according to the actual needs, and then click the Apply button.

    apply communication output
    • In the Output area, the ID before the measurement item name is the order of the measurement items in the output of the current project.

    • After Corrective compensation is set for a measurement item, the Output Results panel of the relevant Step will display the measured values before and after correction of the measurement item.

To delete a measurement item from the output of the project, in the Output area, click delete behind the measurement item, and then click the Apply button.
