Downtime Contextualisation
Providing reasons for machine downtimes is essential for analyzing and improving production performance. At ENLYZE, this process is called downtime contextualisation.
This guide walks you through assigning reasons to detected downtimes in the ENLYZE platform.
Prerequisites
Before you start, ensure that:
Downtime detection is configured for the relevant machine ➡️ Configuring Downtime Detection
Downtime reasons have been defined in your ENLYZE configuration ➡️ Defining Downtime Reasons
Accessing the Downtime UI
Downtime contextualisation is performed through the ENLYZE App: app.enlyze.com
You can access the contextualisation interface in two ways:
Production Overview Panel. It is located on the app's home page and shows downtimes per machine for the selected time range.
Downtime Section. Provides the complete list of downtimes across all machines. Use the dropdown in the upper-left corner to filter by machine.
To begin contextualising, simply click on the downtime entry you'd like to edit.
How to Contextualise a Downtime
The contextualisation interface shows an overview of the selected downtime and the downtime editor:
Assigning a Reason
Browse the predefined reasons, organized by categories and groups.
Click a reason to assign it directly to the downtime.
Optionally, add a comment for clarification.
Click Save (bottom right) to apply your changes.
Click Cancel (bottom left) to discard your changes and restore the previous state
Splitting a Downtime
To split a downtime into multiple parts:
Click the scissors icon below the downtime plot
Define time intervals
Assign reasons to each segment individually.
Once a downtime is contextualised, the information becomes available in the ENLYZE Manufacturing Data Platform. This means it can be used by any connected service or application for reporting, analysis, or optimization.
