This topic documents all of the fields of the Equipment Standards table.Note that some of these fields are used by the ARCHIBUS Client/Server applications and are not used in the Web Central applications.
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Equipment Description | Enter a description that helps identify the equipment used by this standard, such as "PC used by administrative staff." |
| Equipment Category |
Enter an equipment category, such as PRINTER, HVAC, or SAFETY. The Category enables you to manage and review equipment by the Category it is assigned to. |
| Classification Code | Enter the CSI classification code for this standard. By associating a classification code with a standard, you assign it to all equipment assigned to the standard. Assigning an equipment item to a classification code is important when using the CSI Classification system with the Assessment applications. If you use the default CSI classifications, you can connect your condition and environment sustainability assessment items to industry-standard guidelines for replacement, maintenance, and repair costs. |
| Standard HeightStandard Width and Standard Depth: |
Enter the standard dimensions of this equipment. (The program does not use these values when generating asset symbols.) |
| Manufacturer / Model Number |
Enter the company that produces this equipment, and the equipment's model number. This is useful for tracking warranty information, or for locating equipment if the manufacturer announces a recall or safety warning. |
| Standard Price |
Enter the price you typically pay for this type of equipment. |
| Standard Cost to Move: | Enter the standard cost to move a single item of this equipment standard. |
| Standard Area ft2 |
Enter the area that this equipment requires. You can enter the area the equipment occupies (its footprint), or you might also include its circulation or operating area. This is helpful for equipment that needs space around it for safe or effective operation, or for servicing. Including the area equipment requires is helpful when designing the layout of any space that has equipment in it. |
| Amperage/Equipment BTU/Power/Voltage | Use these fields as needed to record operational information for this equipment standard. |
| Size/Capacity |
Use this field to document the equipment's size or capacity. |
| Phase | Select whether this equipment asset uses single-phase (1), two-phase (2), or three-phase (3) electrical power. |
| Years Life Expectancy |
Include the Years Life Expectancy based on industry standards for each specific equipment standard. Year Life Expectancy is the mean service life in years assigned to the asset. The application determines the life remaining (Remaining Life field) for an asset based on Years Life Expectancy minus the actual Equipment Age (yrs). |
| Equip. Std. Graphic | Use this document field to hold a picture of the equipment standard. The View Equipment Plan and the Equipment Standards Book report uses this field to show a picture of the equipment item. |
| Drawing Block |
Enter the name of the block, such as COMP-IBM, that represents the equipment standard and is used for asset inserting or populating equipment in drawings. The block you reference can be either a unit block or a full-scale block. |
|
Field |
Purpose |
|
Std is Multiplexing? |
Specifies whether the standard is multiplexing. If a particular equipment item of this standard does not have this value, you can enter a multiplexing status for the Equipment record. |
|
Std Telecom Service Type |
Specifies the telecom service type for items of this standard. If a particular inventory record of this standard does not have this value, you can enter a telecom service type for the particular inventory record. |
|
Std Telecom Area Level |
Specifies the telecom area level for the standard. If a particular inventory record of this standard does not have this value, you can enter a telecom area level for the particular inventory record. |
|
Std Hierarchy Level |
Defines the telecom hierarchy level for the equipment standard. If a particular inventory record of this standard does not have this value, you can enter a hierarchy level for the particular inventory record. |
|
Telecom Equipment Type |
Specifies the specific equipment type, such as computer, printer. Choose a value from the validating list. |
|
Telecom Contained Tables |
Choose the type of elements this equipment standard can contain: Equipment Ports, Positions, or None. For example, if a PBX standard is to track its terminations as positions, complete this option with Positions and specify the maximum number of positions in the next option. |
|
Number of Contained Positions |
If you specified Positions in the above option, enter the maximum number of positions devices of this standard can contain. |
