Building FTA Diagrams

Previous topic Next topic  

Please note several important facts about RAM Commander FTA module:

Each RAM Commander project may contain multiple (unlimited number) of diagrams.
Diagrams may be connected to each other using Transfer gates (each tree may contain Sub-Trees, which are referenced in the main tree using "Transfer" gates).
All diagrams in the same project use the same basic events library.

 

After initiation of FTA module, list of FTA diagrams appear. Select an existing diagram or choose to create a new diagram and press Ok. Then FTA diagram window will appear.

Each FTA diagram window displays single Fault Tree. You may open several FTA windows simultaneously and switch between them.

A diagram consists of gates, events and remark items - you may create, edit, delete, copy&paste these diagram elements. Use the available options (scrolling, zooming, opening sub-trees, etc.) to obtain the best possible view of the diagram. A more in-depth explanation of each option is provided later in this chapter.
