Run Checker

Once the check requirements have been set up, click Check to start the checking operations. The results are displayed in the Checker Results window in the format of:

• Item

• The check(s) carried out

• Result of check

  • Passed - all the items that have passed all specified checks

  • Failed -all elements that have failed one or more checks

• Reason - a brief description of the reason for the failure

• Message window - displays check messages foe example: Test Passed.

To navigate to any item displayed, click on that item in the list.

This facility is particularly useful when a failed element can be navigated to correct the reason for the failure before repeating the checks.

To save the results of a data check to a file, select one of the following:

• Control > Save > Results

  Displays a File Browser which allows the user to save both the Passed and Failed results to a specified filename and location.

• Control > Save > Failed Reference

  Displays a File Browser which allows the database references of elements that have failed to be saved, together with the checks performed to a specified filename and location. This facility makes it easy to recheck the failed elements later.

To reload a list of failed element references, select Control > Load > Failed References to display a File Browser to navigate to the required filename.

If the list of available checks has been modified during the users current AVEVA E3D™ session, for example, by editing existing checks or adding new ones, the user can update the Checker window to show the new options by selecting Control > Reload Checks.

The checks will be reloaded from the relevant default and user directories and the Classes, Groups and Checks options will be updated.
