I see it as follows: First of all you need to calculate the total amount of energy in those vibrations. I take it simply, may not be perfect but will serve the purpose. Max value of peak and then take the percentage of that zone. In the top graph this is 1.8*10^7=18000000 26.54%=4777200 of whatever units is in the graph. In the bottom graph there are 5 zones. 1st zone is already 3504000 2nd zone is 6660000 3rd zone is 7892000 4th and 5th zones are even bigger. When you add them up you get a far bigger amount of energy that goes into the vibration. Apart from the fact you have only 1 zone in the first graph, the total energy is far far less as well so the top graph is way better I think. Now I am in no way an expert in these graphs but I merely follow some logic when looking at the values displayed in the graphs and this conclusion is what I made out of it. I am also interesting to see what others have to say about it, always up for learning something new.
Hello,
You are indeed right that the first graph looks better. In fact, the right side of these two graphs are quite similar and the changes are the spikes from the left side that are higher on the second graph.
Regarding the green zones, they are in fact not calculated using a "constant" threshold. The goal is to take all kind of machines into account and guide the user to the speed ranges he can use based on his own graph. Here is how I calculate these zones:
That's neat. Sounds you really thought it through to make it work in a large range of different printers which is great.
Somehow I think that having a somewhat less dynamically calculated threshold could improve the green zones. I'm not exactly sure how, but if I consider my own two graphs I can't help but think that the first graph should be mostly green, at least up to 350mm/s. But I understand if someone runs this on a very noisy printer and even the lowest is above 4.0 1e7, you need some way to mark the best zones to stay in. In that case your algorithm works great.
Perhaps here's an idea. As with input shaper profiles, there is often a choice for performance (ie, ZV), and one for quality (ie, MZV). Maybe you could allow for a similar choice in determining the green zones. In my case, if I would choose quality, the green zone threshold would be lower resulting in potentially less green zones and lower max print speeds. But if I choose performance, it would allow for a higher threshold and larger (or more) green zones.
Give it a thought!
Hello, I've fully reworked the vibration measurement macro and script so this issue is a bit outdated. Can you try the new tool?
If there's still some need, do not hesitate to reopen this issue :)

Describe the bug and expected behavior
So both graphs have been taken on the same machine, with no other changes than these 3 things:
!
to correct the reverse wiringThe first graph is with reverse wiring. The second with the default wiring.
When we look at the green zones on each, one might think the second graph is better but I doubt that is the case (hence I am opening the report).
The green zone on the second graph goes up to 0.4 on a 1e8 scale. 40,000,000 to be exact. This is equivalent to 4.0 on a 1e7 scale, the end of 400mm/s. Basically, the entire first graph should be green zone.
Unless I misunderstand something, please clarify then if its not too much to ask 😸.
Thanks for your time!
