                              ══════════

When you first enter SADIE you get  the  Keypad  screen.  Each  of  the 
squares  in  the box is a "key",  with the function labeled on the key.  
Use the cursor keys on the keyboard to select a key on the Keypad.  You 
can tell which is selected because  it  is  "lit  up",  that  is,  it's 
displayed in reverse video.  

To start an option, select the key and hit Enter.

To leave an option,  the rule is to hit Escape (the  "ESC"  key).  This 
works  for  leaving  almost  any option within SADIE except leaving the 
SADIE program (page 6).  There are one or two exceptions and  in  those 
cases the rules for leaving are displayed on the screen at the time.

                              ══════════
                         Here's what you can do

Load Experiment   : Get work that you have saved to your disk (F2).
Save Experiment   : Save an experiment on disk (F2, page 8).
Design Experiment : Design a new experiment,  look at  the current one, 
                    or change current experiment parameters (F4).  
Analysis          : Perform a statistical and/or graphical analysis  of 
                    experiment results (AltF1).  
Transformations   : Convert data to Log Variance,  Standard Deviation, 
                    Signal  to  Noise  Ratio,  or  other transforms in- 
                    cluding User Defined transforms.  Any analysis  can 
                    then be applied to the transformed data (AltF5).  
Set Drive/Printer : Select the disk drive where data will be  stored  & 
                    retrieved,  and  select  Epson  (dot  matrix) or HP 
                    Laserjet Series II printer (F3).

Ctrl-Home changes the color scheme for  the  menu  &  control  screens.  
There are four options to choose from, you can pick the one you like by 
repeatedly hitting Ctrl-Home.  

SADIE allows type-ahead.  This means you can type  in  commands  before 
the  screen  for the command even comes up.  To move quickly five pages 
ahead in this manual,  for instance,  you can hit the  space  bar  five 
times and watch as the screen advances a page at a time five times.  

To prevent you from typing too many  Escapes  ahead  and  inadvertantly 
dropping yourself out of the program,  there is a special "Exit to DOS" 
key.  Selecting this key and hitting Enter takes you out of  SADIE  and 
back into DOS.  If you have been working on an experiment and forgot to 
Save  it  (see  page  8)  you  will be reminded and given the chance to 
redeem yourself before the program halts and the work is lost.

F2                                                               Page 7 
                          Load/Save Experiment
                          ════════════════════

The Load Experiment facility allows you to get an experiment  that  you 
have  worked  on  and  saved  before.  If  you  want  to  design  a new 
experiment see "Design Experiment" on Page  11  (F4).  Loading  a  file 
will  erase  the  work  (if any) currently in memory.  Consequently any 
work should be Saved (page 8) before Loading.  SADIE will remind you if 
you have any work that is jeopardized.  

To get work back that you have saved,  select the "Load Experiment" key 
and hit Enter.  This is  the  default  key,  that  is,  it  is  already 
selected when the main Keypad first comes up.  

When you get the "Load Experiment" screen,  a window opens up  to  show 
you what files you have on your disk.  Type in the name of the file you 
want (eight characters max) and hit Enter (see "Save Experiment",  page 
8,  for details on file naming).  You don't have to add any  extensions 
to the name - SADIE does that automatically for you.  
.PA
                                                                 Page 8
                          Load/Save Experiment
                          ════════════════════

To save your experiment (orthogonal arrays,  factor & level names,  and 
response  data) select the "Save Experiment" key on the main Keypad and 
hit Enter.  You then get the Save Experiment screen.  
 
 
                           Naming Your File
                           ────────────────
You can use any name with up to eight characters,  including letters or 
numbers.  If you use more than eight characters for the name it will be 
truncated to eight.  SADIE saves the experiment information to an ASCII 
file,  which means your can  see  and  edit  the  information  using  a 
standard  word  processor  if  you  wish.  It  doesn't  take  a  rocket 
scientist to figure out the file format by inspection,  but it is fully 
described  on  page  R5 of the printed version of the Command Reference 
Manual for convenience.

                          Load/Save Experiment
                          ════════════════════

Like the Load Experiment screen,  the Save Experiment  screen  opens  a 
window  to  show the files currently on your disk.  If you are updating 
an existing file and you save to the same file name,  SADIE will  check 
to  make  sure  you  really  want  to  overwrite  the old file with the 
message: 
            File already exists. Shall I overwrite? [Y/N] >

You type "Y" if you do want to,  "N" if you  don't.  If  you  type  "N" 
SADIE automatically lets you retry entering the name.  

You  can  return  to  the Main Keypad by simply hitting <Enter> without 
specifying a file name.

                           Set Drive/Printer
                           ═════════════════   

You  can  choose  to keep your data on a separate disk from the program 
disk,  and control the type of printer you're using with  this  option.  
To  change  the data disk drive all you do is type in the letter of the 
drive where you will be reading and writing your data and hit "Enter".  

To change printers,  hit the Tab key.  You can print to  an  Epson  dot 
matrix printer (or Epson compatible) or to an HP LaserJet Series II.  

If you want both data and program on the same disk (eg. when you have a 
hard  disk)  select  default  by  hitting  either  the space bar or the 
"Backspace" key and then "Enter".  

The data files controlled by this option include  all  your  experiment 
files  (see  Load File & Save File,  F2),  response data for Import and 
Export (F9),  and response tables saved from the Response Table  option 
(AltF3).  Orthogonal Arrays are always kept on the program disk.

                        Here's what you can do

Design Array  : Select/Edit Orthogonal Array for Design Factors (F5).
Noise Array   : Select/Edit Orthogonal Array for Noise Factors (F5). 
Data Entry    : Enter experimental results & name of response variable,
                also number of replications and decimal precision of 
                results (F6). 
Factor Levels : Enter the actual names/values for the levels of each 
                factor (F7).
Print Arrays  : Print out the Design and/or Noise Arrays using the 
                actual level names/values (F8).
Import/Export : Read in the response values from a standard ASCII file 
                or write them to a standard ASCII file (F9).

The Design Array and Noise Array control the dimensions of the response 
data in Data Entry, so you usually should set those up first.

                    Orthogonal Array & Noise Factors
                    ════════════════════════════════

The  Orthogonal  Array  option and the Noise Factor option allow you to 
select and edit the orthogonal  arrays.  When  you  first  enter  these 
options  you  are  ready  to  edit the entries spreadsheet style in the 
array you selected,  either the  Design  Factors  (inner  array)  using 
Orthogonal Array or the Noise Factors (outer array).  Choose a standard 
orthogonal  array using F1,  name each column using F5 (or ), and edit 
the array if needed for advanced experimental design applications.  
                             Edit Options

Cursor Keys : Move around the array (Up, Down, Left, Right)
Ctrl-R  : Repeat - copies cell above into current cell.

                 Orthogonal Array/Noise Factor Options

F1 Load Array:  Displays the standard orthogonal arrays  available  on 
your disk.  Type the name of the array you want to use and hit <Enter>.  
The array is then read from disk and the name of the array you selected 
is displayed at the top of the screen.  
F2 Save Array: This option allows you to save an orthogonal array that 
you  have  created  into  your library of standard arrays.  Arrays are 
always saved with your experiment, so only save new standard arrays.  
F3 Runs: Allows you to enter the number of runs (that is, rows) in the 
orthogonal array.  Press F3 and type in the number of rows you want to 
have in the array.  The maximum rows on a Design array  is  36,  on  a 
Noise Array it's 9.  
F4  Columns:  Allows  you to enter the number of columns in the array.  
Press F4 and enter the number of columns you want to  have.  Limit  on 
this number 31 for a Design array, 7 for a Noise array.  
F5 Column Name:  Each column can be named by going to any cell  in  the 
column and pressing F5,  or just by using Up Arrow to move to the name.  
Right or left arrow moves to adjacent column, hit <Enter> to quit.

This is the screen  that  you  use  to  enter  the  results  from  your 
experiment.  The  rows  of  this array are set by the number of runs in 
the Design orthogonal array and the columns by the runs  in  the  Noise 
orthogonal  array.  When the screen comes up you are ready to enter the 
data spreadsheet style.

the screen,  corresponding to the number of replications  specified  in 
this  block.  Each  cell  corresponds  to  a  specific run & a specific 
replication.  The replication number is shown at the top of the  screen 
in the window marked Rep #.  Notice that the number changes as you move 
down the screen to reflect the replication number of the current cell.

This option prints out the Orthogonal Array for Design factors  or  for 
Noise  factors using the actual level names.  This is useful for having 
a hard copy of your experimental design.  You can also  create  a  data 
sheet for collecting your response data with this option.  

F1 Print Design : Prints the orthogonal array for the design factors.

F2 Print Noise  : Prints the orthogonal array for the noise factors.

F3 Data Form    : Prints a data collection grid to match  up  with  the

                             ═════════════

The Import option allows you to  read  the  response  values  for  your 
experiment from a standard ASCII file.  This allows you to run computer 
simulations,  then  read  the  simulation  results  directly into SADIE 
without typing them in.  The Export option lets you send  the  response 
data  to  a standard ASCII file so other programs (such as Lotus 1-2-3) 
can read the values in for additional analysis.  The file format is: 

Line 1: Number of rows in the orthogonal array for design factors.
Line 2: Number of rows in the orthogonal array for noise factors.
Line 3: Number of replications.
Line 4 and greater: Response values just as they would be laid out on 
the Data Entry screen.  See next page for an illustration.

Both Import and Export use the file extension '.PRN' so they  are  dir- 
ectly compatible with Lotus.

The  illustration  here assumes three replications,  16 design runs,  8 
noise runs, just for the sake of argument.  If you want to be sure, set 
up the arrays for your experiment and look at how  the  response  array 
has been laid out in Data Entry.  Next page: same example with numbers.

The  illustration  here assumes three replications,  16 design runs,  8 
noise runs,  and response values between 10 and 20.  This is  the  same 
example  as  the one on the previous page,  with "real numbers" to show 
how the ASCII file format actually looks.  Three dots (...)  mean  "and 
so on" because I probably couldn't fit the whole array on the screen.

This  option  is  a simple line editor which provides six lines of text 
that you can use to place a title on your printout  of  results  or  to 
insert anotation from time to time throughout the report.  

F1 Delete Line : Deletes the line you're on.

F10 Print      : Prints all six lines with the  first  line  always  in 
bold (double strike) print and the other five in normal type.  

Ctrl-Enter     : When you hold the "Ctrl" key when  hitting  "Enter"  a 
page feed command is sent to the printer.  This  is  used  mostly  when 
you're working with a LaserJet printer, and allows you to add text to a 
page after a graphics screen has been sent to the printer.  Note that a 
similar command is available in Draw Plots and Normal Plot.

Cursor Keys : Move  the  cursor  one  space at a time.  If you hold the 
              "Ctrl" key down when using the left/right cursor keys the 
              cursor jumps to the beginning  of  the  next  word.  When 
              moving  up  or down from one line to another,  the cursor 
              may also move left, to keep it within the text in a line.  
Home      : Moves the cursor to the beginning of the line.
End       : Moves the cursor to the end of the line.
Ctrl-End  : When you hold the "Ctrl" key when hitting "End" the line is 
            centered on the screen and on the page when printed.

                         ════════════════════
When you select this option,  you are momentarily asked to  wait  while 
the bulk of the calculation is done.  When this is complete,  the ANOVA 
table is displayed.  
                        Here is what you can do
PgDn/PgUp  :  When either or both of these keys is displayed,  it means 
that there is more to see,  either using PgDn to see additional factors 
or using PgUp to review previous factors.  
//F2 : Use the cursor down () and cursor up () keys to move up and
down  the  pooling  column.  Use  F2  to toggle an unpooled factor to a 
pooled factor or vice-versa.  The Recalculate key  (F1)  lights  up  to 
indicate the current numbers don't reflect the current pooling status.  
F1:  Press F1 to recalculate the ANOVA after changing the  requirements 
for pooling of factors.  
F10:  Press  F10  to  print the results of the ANOVA at any time.  This 
prints the entire ANOVA, including the parts not being displayed on the 
screen at the time.  It also doesn't print all the extra garbage on the 
screen like the function keys.

This option simply displays the average response for each level of each 
factor.  If there are more factors beyond what is  being  displayed  on 
the  screen  the  PgDn  key  appears.  Pressing PgDn scrolls the screen 
through the additional factors.  

F1:  Pressing F1 sends the response table to a disk file,  allowing you 
to use Lotus or other programs for additional analysis or for different 
graphics applications.

This option allows you to see the interaction table of any  one  factor 
by any other factor.  There are two rows of function keys at the top of 
the  screen.  The first row is always a design factor (or a column from 
the inner array);  the second row is either a design factor or a  noise 
factor (outer array column) to be compared.  

F2  Design/Noise:  selects whether the interaction to be displayed will 
be design factor vs design factor or design  factor  vs  noise  factor.  
Pressing F2 toggles from Noise to Design or from Design back to Noise.  
PgUp/PgDn:  Steps through the list of  design  factors.  The  key  only 
appears on the screen when it is active.

                            ══════════════
This option converts the  raw  data  entered  under  Data  Entry  to  a 
transformed  value  or  statistic.  There is a list of nine pre-defined 
transforms displayed,  and also a "User Defined" option that allows you 
to  define  your  own transform.  A "selection bar" can be moved up and 
down the list to select the tranform to be used.  
Note that this option replaces the raw data,  so it's important to save 
the experiment (see F2) before transforming the data.  

F1 Run Transform:  Starts the conversion of entered data to transformed 
data.  
F2 Edit Formula:  Allows you to enter your own formula for transforming 
the  data.  This formula corresponds to the "User Defined" option.  You 
can type in any expression (see next 2 pages) then Enter when finished.  
  /  Move Up/Down:  Moves the selection bar up and down  the list  of 
transformations shown on the screen, to select the one to be used.

With  the  first  nine  (pre-defined) transforms,  the formula for each 
transform is shown.  Summations (Σ) are  taken  for  each  run  of  the 
design array, that is, Σy means sum of responses for all noise runs and 
replications  of  each  design  run.  The  result  of transforms with a 
summation sign in them is a single response value for each design  run.  
Note: Ve = Σ(y-µ)²/(n-1), Sm = (Σy)²/n = nµ², where µ is the mean for a 
design run and n is the number of responses for the design run.  

                             User Formulas

You can type in any expression in the "User Formula" line,  and it will 
be  used  as  the  formula  for  the "User Defined" transform.  In this 
formula, "y" is used to represent the response value being transformed.  
When you run the  transform,  this  expression  is  computed  for  each 
response value, and each response is then replaced with the new value.

This option allows you to graph any response.  You can control  whether 
you  plot all factors together or individual factors,  which factors to 
plot,  and whether to plot  main  effects  or  interactions.  You  have 
either  automatic  or manual control of the scale of the plot.  You can 
also send the plots to the printer (Epson or LaserJet: see F3).

F1 Main Effect/Interaction:  Toggles whether you will see a main effect 
or an interaction plot.  If you select Interaction,  the PgUp/PgDn keys 
appear so you can select the factor to be used for the interaction.  
F2 Design/Noise:  Toggles whether the Main Effect factor to be  plotted 
will be a design or noise factor.

                               ═══════════
This option computes the effect of each factor (two-level  experiments) 
as  the average response at level 2 minus the average at level one.  It 
then ranks effects from most negative to most positive and constructs a 
cumulative normal plot.  The effects that are "random" will fall  on  a 
straight line, and the effects that are "significant" will be far above 
or  far  below  the  line.  Use PgUp/PgDn to increase/decrease slope of 
zero reference in big steps, / to change in small steps.
