Go to the post-processing mode. Next, go to the Beam> Unity Check page. You should be able to see the UR reported in a tabular form. Click on the “Actual Ratio” column from the right hand side of the window. It arranges the table in the ascending order of URs.  Keeping the “ctrl” button pressed, click on the beam numbers in the table. You will see that members with UR ranging from 0.5 to 0.9 are highlighted.
