Cycle productivity
To view the "Cycle Productivity" window, use one of the following methods: Cycle Productivity - Touch the button.Menu - Open the main menu and select "Productivity" > "Cycle".The "Cycle Productivity" window displays the following data:Number of Cycles - The Title in the top portion of the "Cycle Productivity" window displays the number of cycles since the last reset. The values in the frame reflect data for those cycles. The title in the bottom displays the number of cycles that were configured by the user."Elapsed Time" - Time that has elapsed since the last productivity reset"Cycles Per Hour" - This value is the average number of machine cycles per hour. The title of the first group box in this dialog indicates the total number of machine cycles since the last productivity reset."Average Distance" - Average distance traveled forward for each cycle since the last productivity reset"Average Slope" - Sum of the forward horizontal distances for all cycles divided by the sum of the vertical distances since the last productivity reset"Average Cut" - Average volume of cut material per cycle since the last productivity reset"Average Fill" - Average volume of fill material per cycle since the last productivity resetAverage Cut "Per Hour" - Average volume of cut material per hour since the last productivity resetAverage Fill "Per Hour" - Average volume of fill material per hour since the last productivity resetDozer Cycle Recent Cycle Count - Sets the number of cycles reported in the "Last XX Cycles" section of the cycle productivity windowReference: For more information about how to reset productivity files, refer to "Operator Reset" or "Automatic Reset" in Operation and Maintenance Manual, SEBU8164, "General Information (Productivity)".Calculating Cycles
The following sections describe how the on-board software defines and uses cycles. The on-board software records a much larger amount of information that is shown on the Productivity window. Some of these values are explained.

Cycle (General Information)
The on-board software records information only when production dozing. For instance, a trip from the machine shop to the site will not be counted in the productivity data file.The software uses the tests that are listed below to determine when the machine is production dozing, and therefore when to record a cycle:
The forward leg of the current cycle must be within tolerance of the reverse leg of the prior cycle.
The forward leg of the current cycle must be within tolerance of the reverse leg of the current cycle.
Both the forward leg and the reverse leg of the current cycle must be either the same length or longer than the minimum leg distance (default 10 m).The tolerance is a percentage of the reverse leg distance.For example, assume that the reverse leg distance is 200 m (656 ft) and the tolerance is 50%. The forward leg must be less than or equal to 300 m (984 ft) for the current cycle to be valid. Both the prior and the
