IEC, FIDES, 217Plus

Some new methods like IEC 62380, HDBK-217Plus, FIDES and UTE C 80-810 use complex mission profiles instead of standard environments used by MIL-HDBK-217 like GB, GF etc.

These profiles contain information about thermal cycling, humidity, pollution, vibration, process factors and much more.

When one of such profile-based methods is selected as default method in the Project Configuration dialog, list of Environments on item data dialogs will switch to method - specific missions instead standard list of GB, GF, GM etc.

You may configure these mission profiles for each particular project using mission profile manager.

To open the mission profile:

1.	Open a Product tree view.

2.	From the Project menu, choose Configuration.

3.	The Project configuration dialog box opens:

4.	Press the button with default electronic reliability prediction method name.

5.	Mission profile manager will appear:

RelCalc_Fides_MP

6.	See specific reliability prediction method handbook for more information about profile parameters.
