Edit Models¶
To Edit an existing model:
-
Open Settings > Machine Data Management > Models.
-
Open the 3-dots menu at the end of the model´s row and select Edit model.
The Edit model dialog opens:

| # | Item | Description |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Name | Model identification. |
| 2 | Description | Definition of the model. |
| 3 | Visibility | Defines the visibility of this model and its Model-Based Signals. |
| 4 | Appearance | The model picture will be shown for any machine assigned to this model. NOTE: In case that an individual image for a specific machine was uploaded, the individual machine image will be displayed instead. |
| 5 | Asset type for map and list view | Select the icon and label defined in Asset Types that will be displayed in the Machines Overview for the machines assigned to this model. You can then decide if the icon should be displayed instead of the uploaded image. |
Note
The trash icon next to the model is disabled if it has assigned machines.
Threshold Configuration¶
Model-based thresholds enable users to evaluate machine use via signal level thresholds. This feature allows you to apply thresholds to many machines with minimal effort.
The Model:Admin permission set is required to use this feature.
Further details about thresholds severity levels, configuration, notification and reporting can be found in the section Threshold Notification.
Users are also able to view signal threshold history in the following visualizations:
-
Custom DataPortal events
Configuration¶
Note
Thresholds are only available in the Models tab if the model and the user belong to the same organization. For each machine model, a set of thresholds can be configured per signal.
To configure a threshold for a model, proceed as follows:

-
Open Settings > Machine Data Management > Models.
-
Open the 3-dots menu at the end of the model´s row and select Configure Thresholds. The Configure threshold page opens:

Figure 3: Signals field -
Click in the Signals field and Add new threshold
The list of signals opens.
Figure 4: Signals list -
Select the signal from the list and configure its threshold.

Figure 5: Configure threshold for selected signal
| Item | Description |
|---|---|
| Severity | Select the severity level outside the healthy signal value region. |
| Trigger Value | Set the signal value for a threshold. |
| Rearm Value | Set the value where the notification trigger is rearmed. |
Edit Threshold for a Single Machine¶
For testing or special circumstances it may be necessary to edit the threshold configuration for a single machine.
Since thresholds are designed for models, the procedure to test thresholds is as follows.
This procedure allows you to configure and view thresholds for a single machine.
-
Create a special test model without assigning it to a machine.
-
Assign the PDC to the test model.
-
Assign the model for testing purposes to a single machine and test the thresholds.
- Define the thresholds for this model.
