The ROUTE Module
How to Collect ROUTE Measurements
Branching from the active Route hierarchy item are SET, Machine, and Point hierarchy
level items.
SET hierarchy level items are optional. Machine and Point hierarchy level items are
mandatory for all @ptitude Analyst databases.
A “SET” can only hold other SETs and Machines. A “Machine” can
only hold measurement POINTs.
• Use the same arrow button procedures described above to navigate these
additional hierarchy items and their sub-items. In short:
Left/Right arrows - navigate up and down hierarchy levels.
Up/Down arrows - navigate sub-items in drop down lists branching from a
hierarchy level.
When on the last or first POINT in a Machine, use the down or up
arrow keys to progress to the next or previous machine,
respectively.
