Defining equipment inspection points

Associate inspection points with specific equipment or categories. For example, when examining the tread wear on tires of a van, the equipment is the van, and the inspection points are the four tires. You can also associate inspection points with categories.

To define equipment inspection points:

  1. Open the Monitored Equipment form.
  2. Select the equipment, profile, or equipment category for which to define inspection points, and then click the Points tab.
  3. Click Add Point. The system automatically populates Origin.
  4. Point Type—Enter the inspection type to associate with the equipment or equipment category. The system automatically populates the point type description.
  5. Point—Enter the inspection point number.
  6. Click Submit.
    Note: You cannot remove point records that are indirectly associated with the monitored data object.
