● Summary of Automatic Anomaly Detection Implementation

  Overview

  I enhanced your Node-RED flows.json with a complete anomaly detection and real-time alert
  system. Here's exactly what was changed:

  ---
  1. Enhanced Anomaly Detector Function

  Location: flows.json:1840 (Anomaly Detector node)

  What I added:
  - OEE Drop Detection
  - Quality Spike Detection
  - Performance Degradation Detection
  - Predictive Trend Analysis

  Key Code Snippets:

  OEE Drop Detection

  // TIER 2: OEE DROP DETECTION
  const currentOEE = Number(kpis.oee) || 0;
  if (currentOEE > 0 && currentOEE < OEE_THRESHOLD) {
      let severity = 'warning';
      if (currentOEE < 75) {
          severity = 'critical';  // Critically low OEE
      }

      detectedAnomalies.push({
          anomaly_type: 'oee-drop',
          severity: severity,
          title: `OEE Below Threshold`,
          description: `OEE at ${currentOEE.toFixed(1)}% (threshold: ${OEE_THRESHOLD}%)`,
          data: {
              current_oee: currentOEE,
              threshold: OEE_THRESHOLD,
              delta: OEE_THRESHOLD - currentOEE
          },
          kpi_snapshot: { oee, availability, performance, quality },
          work_order_id: activeOrder.id,
          cycle_count: cycle.cycles || 0,
          timestamp: now
      });
  }

  Quality Spike Detection

  // TIER 2: QUALITY SPIKE DETECTION
  const totalParts = (cycle.goodParts || 0) + (cycle.scrapParts || 0);
  const currentScrapRate = totalParts > 0 ? ((cycle.scrapParts || 0) / totalParts) * 100 : 0;

  // Track history
  anomalyState.qualityHistory.push({ timestamp: now, value: currentScrapRate });
  if (anomalyState.qualityHistory.length > HISTORY_WINDOW) {
      anomalyState.qualityHistory.shift();
  }

  // Calculate average and detect spikes
  if (anomalyState.qualityHistory.length >= 5) {
      const recentHistory = anomalyState.qualityHistory.slice(0, -1);
      const avgScrapRate = recentHistory.reduce((sum, point) => sum + point.value, 0) /
  recentHistory.length;
      const scrapRateIncrease = currentScrapRate - avgScrapRate;

      if (scrapRateIncrease > QUALITY_SPIKE_THRESHOLD && currentScrapRate > 2) {
          let severity = 'warning';
          if (scrapRateIncrease > 10 || currentScrapRate > 15) {
              severity = 'critical';  // Major quality issue
          }

          detectedAnomalies.push({
              anomaly_type: 'quality-spike',
              severity: severity,
              title: `Quality Issue Detected`,
              description: `Scrap rate at ${currentScrapRate.toFixed(1)}% (avg: 
  ${avgScrapRate.toFixed(1)}%, +${scrapRateIncrease.toFixed(1)}%)`,
              // ... additional data
          });
      }
  }

  Performance Degradation Detection

  // TIER 2: PERFORMANCE DEGRADATION
  const currentPerformance = Number(kpis.performance) || 0;
  anomalyState.performanceHistory.push({ timestamp: now, value: currentPerformance });

  // Check for sustained poor performance (10 data points)
  if (anomalyState.performanceHistory.length >= 10) {
      const recent10 = anomalyState.performanceHistory.slice(-10);
      const avgPerformance = recent10.reduce((sum, point) => sum + point.value, 0) /
  recent10.length;

      // Alert if consistently below 85% performance
      if (avgPerformance > 0 && avgPerformance < 85) {
          let severity = 'warning';
          if (avgPerformance < 75) {
              severity = 'critical';
          }

          detectedAnomalies.push({
              anomaly_type: 'performance-degradation',
              severity: severity,
              title: `Performance Degradation`,
              description: `Performance at ${avgPerformance.toFixed(1)}% (sustained over last 10
   cycles)`,
              // ... additional data
          });
      }
  }

  Predictive Trend Analysis

  // TIER 3: PREDICTIVE ALERTS (Trend Analysis)
  if (anomalyState.oeeHistory.length >= 15) {
      const recent15 = anomalyState.oeeHistory.slice(-15);
      const firstHalf = recent15.slice(0, 7);
      const secondHalf = recent15.slice(-7);

      const avgFirstHalf = firstHalf.reduce((sum, p) => sum + p.value, 0) / firstHalf.length;
      const avgSecondHalf = secondHalf.reduce((sum, p) => sum + p.value, 0) / secondHalf.length;

      const oeeTrend = avgSecondHalf - avgFirstHalf;

      // Predict if OEE is trending downward significantly
      if (oeeTrend < -5 && avgSecondHalf > OEE_THRESHOLD * 0.95 && avgSecondHalf < OEE_THRESHOLD
   * 1.05) {
          detectedAnomalies.push({
              anomaly_type: 'predictive-oee-decline',
              severity: 'info',
              title: `Declining OEE Trend Detected`,
              description: `OEE trending down ${Math.abs(oeeTrend).toFixed(1)}% over last 15 
  cycles`,
              // ... additional data
          });
      }
  }

  2. Global Alert UI System

  Location: flows.json:602-624 (New global ui_template node)

  What I created:
  - Floating alert panel (slides from right)
  - Pop-up notifications requiring acknowledgment
  - Alert badge counter
  - Pulsing animation for active alerts

  Floating Panel HTML

  <!-- Floating Toggle Button -->
  <button id="anomaly-toggle-btn" ng-click="toggleAnomalyPanel()">
    <span class="alert-badge" ng-if="activeAnomalyCount > 0">{{activeAnomalyCount}}</span>
    <span ng-if="activeAnomalyCount === 0">⚠️</span>
    <span style="writing-mode: vertical-rl;">ALERTS</span>
  </button>

  <!-- Floating Alert Panel -->
  <div id="anomaly-alert-panel" ng-class="{expanded: anomalyPanelExpanded}">
    <div class="anomaly-panel-header">
      <h2 class="anomaly-panel-title">Active Alerts</h2>
      <button class="anomaly-close-btn" ng-click="toggleAnomalyPanel()">×</button>
    </div>

    <div class="anomaly-alert-list">
      <div class="anomaly-alert-item {{anomaly.severity}}" ng-repeat="anomaly in 
  activeAnomalies">
        <div class="anomaly-alert-header">
          <h3 class="anomaly-alert-title">{{anomaly.title}}</h3>
          <span class="anomaly-severity-badge {{anomaly.severity}}">{{anomaly.severity}}</span>
        </div>
        <p class="anomaly-alert-desc">{{anomaly.description}}</p>
        <p class="anomaly-alert-time">{{formatTimestamp(anomaly.timestamp)}}</p>
        <div class="anomaly-alert-actions">
          <button class="anomaly-ack-btn" 
  ng-click="acknowledgeAnomaly(anomaly)">Acknowledge</button>
        </div>
      </div>
    </div>
  </div>

  Pop-up Notification HTML

  <!-- Pop-up Notification Container -->
  <div id="anomaly-popup-container">
    <div class="anomaly-popup {{popup.severity}}" ng-repeat="popup in popupNotifications">
      <div class="anomaly-popup-header">
        <h3 class="anomaly-popup-title">{{popup.title}}</h3>
        <button class="anomaly-popup-close" ng-click="closePopup(popup)">×</button>
      </div>
      <p class="anomaly-popup-desc">{{popup.description}}</p>
      <button class="anomaly-popup-ack" ng-click="acknowledgePopup(popup)">Acknowledge
  Alert</button>
    </div>
  </div>

  Key CSS Styling

  /* Floating Alert Panel Container */
  #anomaly-alert-panel {
    position: fixed;
    top: 0;
    right: 0;
    width: 400px;
    height: 100vh;
    background: linear-gradient(160deg, #151e2b 0%, #1a2433 100%);
    box-shadow: -0.5rem 0 2rem rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5);
    z-index: 9999;
    transform: translateX(100%);  /* Hidden by default */
    transition: transform 0.3s ease;
    border-left: 2px solid #ff4d4f;
  }

  #anomaly-alert-panel.expanded {
    transform: translateX(0);  /* Slides in when expanded */
  }

  /* Pulsing animation for alert button */
  #anomaly-toggle-btn.has-alerts {
    animation: alert-pulse 2s infinite;
  }

  @keyframes alert-pulse {
    0%, 100% { box-shadow: -0.25rem 0.5rem 1rem rgba(255, 77, 79, 0.6); }
    50% { box-shadow: -0.25rem 0.5rem 2rem rgba(255, 77, 79, 1); }
  }

  JavaScript Message Handler

  // Handle incoming messages from Event Logger
  scope.$watch('msg', function(msg) {
      if (!msg || !msg.topic) return;

      // Handle anomaly UI updates from Event Logger output 2
      if (msg.topic === 'anomaly-ui-update') {
          var payload = msg.payload || {};

          // Update active anomalies
          scope.activeAnomalies = payload.activeAnomalies || [];
          scope.activeAnomalyCount = payload.activeCount || 0;

          // Create pop-up notifications for new critical/warning alerts
          if (payload.updates && Array.isArray(payload.updates)) {
              payload.updates.forEach(function(update) {
                  if (update.status !== 'resolved') {
                      var anomaly = scope.activeAnomalies.find(function(a) {
                          return a.event_id === update.event_id;
                      });

                      if (anomaly && (anomaly.severity === 'critical' || anomaly.severity ===
  'warning')) {
                          scope.popupNotifications.push(anomaly);
                      }
                  }
              });
          }

          // Update button state
          var btn = document.getElementById('anomaly-toggle-btn');
          if (btn && scope.activeAnomalyCount > 0) {
              btn.classList.add('has-alerts');
          }
      }
  });

  Acknowledgment Handler

  // Acknowledge anomaly from panel
  scope.acknowledgeAnomaly = function(anomaly) {
      if (!anomaly) return;

      // Send acknowledgment message
      scope.send({
          topic: 'acknowledge-anomaly',
          payload: {
              event_id: anomaly.event_id,
              timestamp: Date.now()
          }
      });

      // Remove from active list
      var index = scope.activeAnomalies.findIndex(function(a) {
          return a.event_id === anomaly.event_id;
      });

      if (index !== -1) {
          scope.activeAnomalies.splice(index, 1);
          scope.activeAnomalyCount = scope.activeAnomalies.length;
      }
  };

  ---
  3. Acknowledgment Handler Function

  Location: flows.json:626-644 (New function node)

  // Handle acknowledgment from UI
  if (msg.topic === 'acknowledge-anomaly') {
      const ackData = msg.payload || {};
      const eventId = ackData.event_id;
      const ackTimestamp = ackData.timestamp || Date.now();

      if (!eventId) {
          return null;
      }

      // Update database
      const updateQuery = `UPDATE anomaly_events 
          SET status = 'acknowledged', acknowledged_at = ? 
          WHERE event_id = ?`;

      msg.topic = updateQuery;
      msg.payload = [ackTimestamp, eventId];

      node.warn(`[ANOMALY ACK] Event ${eventId} acknowledged`);

      return msg;
  }

  Output: Sends UPDATE query to MySQL node to mark alert as acknowledged

  ---
  4. Wiring Changes

  Event Logger Output 2 (Previously Empty):

  // BEFORE
  "wires": [
      [
          "anomaly_split_node_id"
      ],
      []  // Output 2 was empty
  ]

  // AFTER
  "wires": [
      [
          "anomaly_split_node_id"
      ],
      [
          "anomaly_alert_ui_global"  // Now wired to global UI
      ]
  ]

  ---
  5. OEE Threshold Initialization

  Location: flows.json:1974-2012 (New inject + function nodes)

  Inject Node (Runs on Startup)

  {
      "id": "init_oee_threshold",
      "type": "inject",
      "name": "Initialize OEE Threshold (90%)",
      "props": [{"p": "payload"}],
      "repeat": "",
      "crontab": "",
      "once": true,          // Runs once on startup
      "onceDelay": 0.1,
      "payload": "90",       // Default threshold
      "payloadType": "num"
  }

  Function Node (Sets Global Variable)

  // Initialize OEE alert threshold
  const threshold = Number(msg.payload) || 90;
  global.set("oeeAlertThreshold", threshold);

  node.warn(`[CONFIG] OEE Alert Threshold set to ${threshold}%`);

  return msg;
