Overview: This tutorial explains how to configure Off Spec Alerts for your devices and receive automated email alerts when a high percentage of data samples fall outside the target specification range.
Steps to Set Off Spec Alert Configuration
1. Navigate to the Setting page :
2. Open device alert tab and click on the Off spec alert sub tab.
3. Please enter the off spec alert configuration.
Device : Select the device you want to monitor for off spec alert.
Time Duration : Set the time range for evaluating data intervals (samples).
Off Spec Alert Percents : Enter the percentage at which you want to trigger an alert (e.g., 50).
Alert Email : Add the recipient email address to receive the Off Spec alert notifications.
How Off spec alert works
1. Duration-Based Sample Collection:
- It retrieves all data intervals (samples) within the configured time duration.
2. Sample Evaluation:
- Each sample is analyzed to see if it falls outside the target percent range.
- If the
black line (actual) has most of its points
outside the configured target range, then the corresponding
Data Interval (Sample) is marked as
Off Spec.

3. Alert Trigger Logic:
- The system calculates the percentage of samples that are Off Spec.
- If this value exceeds the configured alert, it triggers an Off Spec Alert Email.
Example
-
Configured Off Spec Alert : 50%
-
Total Data Intervals (Samples): 10
-
Off Spec Intervals: 6
-
Calculated Off Spec Percentage: 60%
✅ Since 60% > 50%, an Off Spec Alert Email will be sent to the configured address.
