Generating reports on the balance of OV2 and OV5 information exchanges
You can run a utility that reports on the balance of information exchanges used on needlines in OV-2 operational node connectivity diagrams with the information exchanges used by ICOM arrows on OV-5 activity diagrams.
Prerequisite
There must be at least one OV-5 activity model and a corresponding OV-2 operational node connectivity diagram in the current encyclopedia. The symbols in each diagram must be defined and the appropriate information present for comparison.
In the OV-2 and OV-5 diagrams that you select, the following balancing operation checks are performed:
•needlines without information exchanges
•information exchanges without corresponding needlines
•information exchanges on needlines not used on the activity model
•information exchanges to operational activity validation
•source operational activity and operational node discrepancies
•destination operational activity and operational node discrepancies
•source or destination operational activity and operational node
To generate balance OV2 and OV5 information exchanges reports:
1 Click Tools > MODAF Utilities.
2 Select Balance OV-2 and OV-5 Info. Exchanges.
A list of top-level OV-5 activity diagrams and OV-2 operational node connectivity diagrams is displayed.
3 Select one OV-5 diagram and one OV-2 diagram from each list for balancing.
4 Click Run.
The report is generated in a Word document with a list of the balance check results.
