FDDWorX Tab for Equipment

On the FDDWorX tab for equipment (shown below) in AssetWorX, you can configure the equipment for ICONICS FDDWorX. This tab must be added to an equipment node by using the + tab. For more information about adding an FDDWorX tab, refer to the + Tab for Equipment topic.

 

Tip: An equipment node's information may be pre-configured if it was created using an equipment class. Equipment classes can contain template information, including aliases that are identified as being surrounded by /? and ?/.

The FDDWorX tab contains three sub-tabs:

You can edit the name in the Fault Name text entry field. You can enter an expression in the Enabled text entry field or click on the button to open the Expression Editor and create a new expression.

Clicking the plus sign [+] to the left of a fault allows you to change additional properties, including:

The Enabled and Severity text entry fields are the same as those that appear when you first add a fault. See the descriptions above. A change in one location replicates to the other.

Fault Rule

Fault Rule Sub-Tab

 

The Fault Rule sub-tab allows you to construct a fault rule to associate to your selected fault. You can enter the rule directly into the text entry field or use the buttons to the right (Arithmetic, Relational, Logical, Bitwise, Functions, Variables...) or click on the button to open the Rule Expression Editor to construct the rule. See Rules/Expression Editor for additional info. You can then click on the button to check the syntax of the entered Fault Rule. Results will appear in the text field to the right.

Fault Cost

Fault Cost Sub-Tab

 

The Fault Cost sub-tab works similarly to the Fault Rule subtab. You can construct a fault cost to associate to your selected fault. You can enter the cost directly into the text entry field or use the buttons to the right (Arithmetic, Relational, Logical, Bitwise, Functions, Variables...) or click on the button to open the Cost Expression Editor to construct the cost. You can then click on the button to check the syntax of the entered Fault Cost. Results will appear in the text field to the right.

Related Values

Related Values Sub-Tab

 

For each Related Value that you wish to create, either type in a static value in the provided text box or click on the button to browse for a data point OR an expression (see the tabs in the top right of the Data Browser window). You can add up to 20 values that you wish to capture as part of the fault whenever the fault condition occurs. You can view these related values when you examine faults in the FDDWorX Viewer.

 

Clicking the button opens the Show Details Wizard, shown below.

Clicking on the button opens the Alias selection for 'RelatedValueX' parameter window, shown below.
