Observe the following guidelines:
-
There can be only one utilization reason tag record for each piece of equipment.
-
If more than one record is included in the CSV file for a piece of equipment, the last one in the file is used in the model.
For more information about how these tags are used for automated collection of utilization reasons, see Automated equipment utilization data collection.
Column
Description
Namespace
This is a required property.
This is the the namespace for the piece of equipment to which this utilization reason tag applies.
Name
This is a required property.
This is the name of the piece of equipment.
The piece of equipment that is being specified by the Namespace and Name properties must already exist in the model. Equipment is defined by importing equipment CSV model files.
Utilization Reason Tag Reference
This is a required property.
This is the tag to collect data from for the named equipment.
-
The tag must be a fully qualified name (FQN), which includes the data source as the first tag component (for example, Austin.Capper1.UtilReason).
-
The tag entry must be valid for data collection to occur.
Note: It is strongly recommended that you use only tags with a data change trigger, and not a periodic trigger. This will optimize system throughput and database query response time by minimizing the logging of unnecessary data.
Default Utilization Reason
This is a required property.
This is the utilization reason that is used if the utilization reason provided in the process tag value is invalid.
