Creating a Measuring Point Directly 

  1. From the initial R/3 menu, choose Logistics ® Plant maintenance ® Technical objects ® Environment ® Measuring points ® Create.

    2. The initial screen for the direct maintenance of measuring points is displayed.

  2. Specify in the field MeasPointObject, whether the measuring point that you want to create is located at a functional location or at a piece of equipment.
  3. Choose Continue.
  4. Enter the number of the technical object that you wish to create the measuring point for, and the required measuring point category.
  5. Choose Continue. The detail screen for maintaining general data for the measuring point is displayed.

    6.  

  6. Enter data as required in the detail screen.

Bear in mind the following rules:

If you want to enter quantitative measurement results for the measuring point (for example, 20 degrees Celsius, 10 cm, 300 ampere, 1000 candela), you must assign a numerical characteristic to it with the required unit.

If you want to enter qualitative measurement results for the measuring point (for example, sufficient, low, too high, too dry), you must assign the required code group to it.

If the entry of qualitative measurement results in the form of an evaluation code is sufficient for a measuring point, you do not need to enter any characteristics for the measuring point. You just specify one code group and select the field ValCode sufficient.

If you want, you can assign both a characteristic and a code group to a measuring point.

Make any other necessary entries. For more information on this, see the detailed descriptions in the following topics:
  1. Save the master record of the measuring point.
