1 How to Export Data from LIS and analyze in with an Excel Pivot table All machine stops are captured within LIS and are displayed in the TPM interface screen. This TPM Interface screen shows the machine downtime events for the time frame selected. Once the Get Events button is selected a list of downtime events is shown on the spread sheet. If a user selects the Equipment Break Downs radio button the list will show only the downtime events greater than 10 mins, they can then redefine those stops with a more specific reason if the reason is Internal Stop. Currently only the Equipment Break Downs can be changed to more specific reasons. This data is valuable to use to analyze the equipment downtime. This data can be exported to an Excel spread sheet and inserted into a Pivot table for further analysis.

2 Exporting the Data out of the Line Information System 1. Goto the Reports page within LIS Reports Button 2. Chose the LineX_TPM1 report for the line you want to analyze 3. Click on the hide system tree button to make the report full screen Clicking this button will hide or display the System Tree

Select Absolute Time Mode and choose the start and end times you are interested in. 5. Now click on the Update Quick Time button to refresh the data on the page with the newly selected time interval. 6. Now that all the data is on the spread sheet right click on the spread sheet. Choose Export Local.

4 7. Choose My Computer Choose the Local Disk (D:) Name the file and save it to the D: drive, any one of the folders or create a new folder. Click Save 8. Now minimize the LIS window This will bring you to the desktop of the LIS File and Print Server

5 9. Look for the shortcut to the D: drive where you saved the export to. There should be a short cut on the desktop. If there is not do the following: Right click on the desktop and choose New -> Shortcut Type in \\ \d$ To log into that machine use the following credentials: Username Administrator Password lis You will see this Click Finsh.

8 12. To set up the pivot table just drag the fields from the pivot table field list to the rows and columns label and value fields as shown in the below example. By dragging these three fields into the row, column and values fields the pivot table will start to form This gives you the total minutes of downtime for each machine. We can add the frequency of each error as well by dragging DurationTotalMinutes down to the Values field again. On the second Sum of Duration Minutes left click on it and choose count instead of sum.

9 And you will end up with the total minutes of downtime and frequency. Now to quickly filter out the machines you can add a slicer - Click on any cell within the pivot table - Choose the options menu item and chose Insert Slicer Choose Machine and click OK

10 Now you can choose any one or multiple machines very quickly and easily. Hold the CTRL key down to select multiple machines Double clicking on any number will open a new sheet with the data detail. This is just one of the many ways to look at the data from the TPM report. When you save this file be sure to save it as an Excel file. The file that you exported from the LIS system was a CSV file.
