Methods and apparatus for configuring a data analyzer

摘要

A method for configuring a data analyzer is provided. The method comprises displaying to a user, on a presentation interface coupled to a processor, a graphical representation of at least a portion of the data analyzer. A data analyzer configuration for the data analyzer is then generated using a user input interface, which is coupled to the presentation interface and the processor. The presentation interface then displays to the user a plurality of selectable machine train components. The method also comprises generating, using the user input interface, an interactive graphical representation of a machine train including at least one of the selectable machine train components. Using the processor, a configuration file is generated based on the data analyzer configuration and the graphical representation of the machine train. The configuration file facilitates diagnosing operation of the machine train using the data analyzer.

1. A method for configuring a data analyzer, the method comprising:
displaying to a user, on a presentation interface coupled to a processor, a graphical representation of at least a portion of the data analyzer; generating, using a user input interface coupled to the presentation interface and the processor, a data analyzer configuration for the data analyzer, wherein the user input interface comprises at least one selectable hardware card that is compatible with the data analyzer; displaying to the user, on the presentation interface, a plurality of selectable machine train components; displaying a digital representation of a physical appearance of a selected hardware card of the at least one selectable hardware card; generating, using the user input interface, an interactive graphical representation of a machine train including at least one of the selectable machine train components; and generating, using the processor, a configuration file based on the data analyzer configuration, selected one or more cards of the at least one selectable hardware cards, and the interactive graphical representation of the machine train, wherein the configuration file facilitates diagnosing operation of the machine train using the data analyzer at a later time.
