Raw Reason Codes

Machine utilization raw reason codes can be sent directly from an entity to MES via a UCO. Depending on how the raw reason code is configured in the UCO or in MES Client, it will create a new utilization event in the MES database, using the utilization reason to which the raw reason code was mapped.

One and only one raw reason code can be active at a time. If more than one raw reason code expression evaluates to True simultaneously, the active raw reason code is the one with the highest priority. The priority is determined by their order in the raw reason code list and the Minimum Time Before Activation setting in the UCO instance.

If a raw reason code that is not configured for the entity is received, the Unknown Reason utilization reason, which is configurable for each entity or UCO instance, is used.
