Using Extreme Values Scanner

The Extreme values tab in the KS6800A PathWave Measurement Analytics software is used to scan for and display fields that are found to be too far from the mean value, that is at the extreme points of a distribution. It may be comprised of either very small or very large values in the distribution. The KS6800A software runs the scanner to identify if one or more measurement fields in a dataset were confirmed as outliers with extreme values from the normal distribution after analysis under the Normal Scanner. See Displaying Possible Normal Characteristics.

The Extreme values Scanner displays a timestamp in the Last Run entry whenever you perform a scan. By default, this entry is blank.

  1. Click so that the KS6800A software scans for measurement fields that may appear to have outliers in the form of extreme values, which are far from the mean value.
If available, the results from the scan appear in the Extreme values Outliers area. For further description, see Displaying Extreme Values Outliers.
