Using Diagnostic Matrices in the AssetWorX Provider

Once you have created a Diagnostic Model, complete with a Fault Symptoms/Causes Diagnostic Matrix, within the FDDWorX provider in ICONICS' Workbench online configuration tool, you can link it to an Asset within the AssetWorX provider.

 

Note: For more information about the AssetWorX provider, look for the related topic(s) in the Help Documentation.

 

A Selected Asset in the AssetWorX Provider in Workbench

 

The Assets branch of the AssetWorX's Project Explorer is where users can configure equipment (also called "assets") and house a hierarchical asset tree. Users could enter many assets, such as for a large enterprise-sized corporation or a few, for a smaller single-site company. Universities and colleges could benefit from listing numerous assets spread over one or more campuses. The AssetWorX was designed to handle the wide possibilities of the size of users' asset collections.

 

In the example above, the Assets branch has been expanded to reveal "Company", which contains "Foxboro bakery", which contains a "North" location, which contains "Baking line" which contains an "Ingredients Mixing Tank". You might use "Ingredients Mixing Tank" as an Asset to which you connect a Diagnostic Model that was created in the FDDWorX provider.

 

There are multiple ways to add a FDDWorX Diagnostic Model to a selected asset in AssetWorX.
