Add OCO instances to System Platform objects

Once you have created your OCO templates, you can add instances of the templates to your equipment model in the System Platform IDE below any object that you want to create in MES as an entity with OCO-related capabilities.

1. In the System Platform IDE Model View, configure your equipment model, including any objects that represent MES entities that require OCO-related capabilities.

   For detailed information about creating your equipment model in the System Platform IDE, see the System Platform IDE help.

2. Create and add an OCO instance as a child of any modeled object that represents an MES entity that requires OCO-related capabilities.

   An object can contain only one OCO object as a child.

   

3. Configure the individual OCO instances in your equipment model as needed.

   For general OCO configuration information, see Configure OCO templates and instances.

   For information about the specific configuration attributes, see the appropriate chapters in this document.

When you are ready to export the OCO instance to the MES database as an MES entity, see Build the MES entity model from OCOs.
