The GREEN color is used when the measured values are in the ideal range. Please refer to the following image which is used a reference for each of the listed metrics.
The YELLOW color is used when the measured values exceed the ideal range but are still within the tolerances listed for each metric.
The RED color is used when the values measured are out of bounds and exceed the maximum and/or minimum limits including the tolerances specified for a metric.
Adding a Quality Profile
Clicking on the Duplicate button will bring up a prompt to name the new profile. These new duplicates will be listed under the Custom section on the left menu bar.
Each of the values can be adjusted by using the edit icon right next to the box. Some metrics have two sided limits for defining upper and lower bounds and some metrics only have a one sided limit. As the limit/tolerance numbers are adjusted, the web app adjusts the visual guide to show how the values for each of the colors is changed. This is shown in the example below.
