Tripwire Thresholds Tab (Work Package Metrics Form)

Use the fields on this tab to set up the tripwire thresholds for the metric. Double-click on a threshold to edit it.

You use these thresholds to graphically show when a defined threshold is exceeded. Tripwire thresholds can be based on either the primary or secondary formula.

Note: If you enable the secondary formula by selecting the check box for the secondary metric, then the tripwire threshold is automatically associated with the secondary metric. If you do not select the check box, the tripwire threshold is automatically associated with the primary formula.

To edit the threshold colors, click Color in the Tripwire Thresholds menu group.

Field	Description
Name	This column displays the name of the threshold.
Color	This column displays the color of the threshold.
When value is...	This column represents the lower limit of the threshold. <1E-05 means 1 to the negative 5th power. It indicates a very, very small number that is greater than zero. It is used to differentiate zero from a very small non-zero value.
Value	This column represents the bottom limit to which this threshold applies. This also represents the upper limit of the previous threshold.
Description	This column displays the threshold description which displays as a Tool tip on the S2 // Diagnostics tab when the metric evaluation falls inside the threshold.
