XL Software v2.21 Release

Run Event End Adjustment

This feature automatically adjusts the boundary between each Run and Down event, such that the Down event starts after the last cycle of the Run event. This feature does not change your overall OEE score. It simply recategorises time from an OEE Performance loss (the Run event) to an OEE Availability loss (the Down event) to better model what is actually happening on the production line. So if you want to use this feature please go to the Run States page and turn it on.

TV Mode

Your favourite report on the big screen. An often asked for feature is here!

Many XL users already show their favourite report or dashboard on a TV for all to see. Now we have made it even easier with the all-new TV Mode. Display a focused, extra high-resolution view of the XL web page interface on a TV to see the data you want, where you want, with no distractions. Craft your ideal dashboard, choose your most used built-in reports, or simply showcase a web-based view of your scoreboard to align your entire team with what’s happening on your shop floor.

Reuse Dimensions in KPI Groups

Visualise multiple metrics for the same dimension within a single KPI Group. For example, compare each of the Six Big Losses by Shift, or OEE Factors by Part, all within the same KPI Group widget. Understand the context of your data in an instant

Celebrate Wins

Visualise a job well done.

By popular request, we added an XL800 (prior generation) feature to the XL810. Fireworks!

Motivate your plant floor team by celebrating success. If Efficiency meets the “good threshold” at any point during the last ten minutes of the shift, you can show congratulatory fireworks and “Great Job, Team!" on the XL810 scoreboard to recognise your team for their win!

Defects per Million

Let’s welcome a new metric to the 140+ member family - Defects per Million. This is especially useful in industries where defect counts are typically very low, but still of paramount importance, such as PCB assembly. Defects per Million provides an additional perspective on quality by presenting it in terms of reject pieces per million total pieces.
