1. Open the Project’s Mission Profile file.
|
The Mission Profile file is a singular support file that is created when the Project is created. You need only to open it. You can open a Mission Profile file in the same way as any other file. For more information, see General File How-Tos.
|
|
2. Insert a mission definition for each unique mission profile
|
Insert the necessary mission profiles. For more information, see Inserting a Mission Profile.
|
|
3. For each mission definition, insert the appropriate mission phases.
|
For each mission definition, insert the phases in the mission. For more information, see Inserting a Mission Profile Phase.
|
|
4. Calculate prediction and/or FMEA results.
|
You run calculations by clicking Calculate on the standard toolbar or by selecting > . For more information, see Calculating Prediction Results. To have mission calculations run for predictions, in the Calculate window, both Prediction on the Calculation Selection page and Mission calculations on the Prediction page must be selected. Mission calculations include mission failure rate, mission MTBF, mission reliability, and mission availability based on the various mission phases in the Mission Profile file. To have mission calculations run for FMEAs, in the Calculate window, FMEA must be selected on the Calculation Selection page and the > page must be completed. For more information, see Calculating FMEA Results.
