Value ScalingsAs individual metrics are measured in different units, their numerical values may vary too much for usefulvisual comparison. For example, fuel consumption rates, measured in L/hr and usually single digits, maynot be easily comparable at first glance to engine speeds, measured in RPM and often in the thousandsor tens of thousands. To remedy this, the Value Scaling for each metric can be changed manually. Thevalues for this metric will be multiplied by the scaling factor. Decimal fractions can also be entered toreduce values (0.5 to halve, 0.02 to divide by 50, etc.). Enter the desired scaling factor and click the ApplyScaling button.
Note:
• When using any Value Scaling other than 1, the resulting values adjacent to the graph will notbe correct. The scaling function is an aid for visual comparison of trends only.
• Version 1.2.0 of MineDash does not display units for each metric at present. To check the unittype for a specific metric, go to the Current State report.
