The input values appear in different colors: orange, black and blue. What do they mean?

In Temperature Spreadsheet many values are orange, others black:

In Stator Node Set some inputs are blue. 

How should we interprete them?

  • Black digits: exact user input as you see it;

    blue digits: user input but truncated, you see it like this but if you click it, you'll see the real number has more significant digits;

    orange digits: determined by Romax or automatically sourced from elsewhere.

    Example, modifying Temperature Spreadsheet:

    Gearbox Assembly = 70C, shaft = 80C -> Rolling elements = 75C, Inner Ring = 80C, Outer Ring = 70C, Supply = 75C.

    Note that if you double-click on an orange number in these tables, the number turns black, indicating that Romax understands the user wanted to enter that fixed value, no longer as dynamic.

    Also note that editing a black number by deleting it will restore the dynamic orange number.

  • To bulk-restore multiple cells to their inherited value (e.g. multiple component temperatures, and/or temperatures for multiple load-cases) - highlight the relevant cells, and use CTRL+X (i.e. the Windows cut command).

    Applies to Romax software 2024.1 and later.
