Adding a Container

Containers are separate divisions under the main company description in the Asset Tree that allow you to
group Welding Power Sources together to suit your needs. You can also define the OEE “idle” and
“planned” times for the Container. Once you create a new Container, you can assign a new or previously
added Welding Power Source to that Container.

Figure 4.20 Creating a New Container

TIP |

To make it easier for you to build your Asset Tree, create all

your Containers first. Then you can simply select the
appropriate
Container when you create your Welding Power
Source entries (rather than creating them and then editing
them again).

To add a new Container:
