SKUs

Performance Mode

This defines how Performance data is measured. Choose the metric that matches the SKU. Units per Hour

Batch Size

For SKUs that are produced in batches, this will multiply the count received from the OPTA device or tablet to give the total unit count.

Value

Set the expected production rate in units/hr.

Instructions

If you have an internal link to a process document you can include it here for the operator.

Downtime Detection Cycle Time Multiplier

When using 'Production Cycle' downtime detection mode, a duration based on the SKU cycle time is used to determine when a station should be considered stopped.

By default, this value is 150% of the cycle time. So for an SKU with a cycle time of 2 minutes, Busroot would consider the station stopped if no production has been observed after 3 minute.

Changing this multiplier to 2 (200%) would mean that downtime is not flagged until 4 minutes after the last observed production.

Minimum Cycle Time

Set a minimum cycle-time for the SKU. If more than one signal is received in this period, Busroot will only count one unit. This allows filtering of signals during setup process for example.

Allow Use in Ad hoc Production Schedules

Select whether the SKU will be available when creating Ad Hoc Schedules on the Operator Tablet.
