Stat > Reliability/Survival > Distribution Analysis (Right Censoring) > Nonparametric Distribution Analysis > FMode

If you have multiple causes of failure, enter a column or columns to evaluate the reliability of the individual failure modes. For more information on failure modes, go to What is a failure mode?.

Use failure mode columns
Enter the columns that contain the failure modes. To represent right-censored observations in the failure mode column, use an asterisk (*) for numeric columns or a space for text columns.
Failure Mode Options
  • Use all failure modes: Include all failure modes in the analysis.
  • Use failure modes: Enter the failure modes to include in the analysis. Enclose text values in double quotation marks.
  • Eliminate failure modes: Enter the failure modes to exclude from the analysis. Enclose text values in double quotation marks.
