This topic describes attributes of the State Configuration that is defined for the ACAAn Asset Criticality Analysis record and all the records that are linked to that record. Using the ACA interface, you can evaluate the criticality of systems and the individual locations and pieces of equipment that make up those systems by defining the consequences and probability of the failure events that may occur. In this way, you can determine which of your systems, locations, and pieces of equipment have the highest risk of failure in your facility. In other words, using the ACA interface, you can determine which of your systems, locations, and pieces of equipment are critical. family in the baseline GE Digital APM database.
The following diagram illustrates the State Configuration that is defined for the ACA family. The boxes represent states, and the arrows represent operations. You can determine the cardinality of an operation from the direction of the arrow (i.e., the state to which the arrow points is the successor state).
The Planning state is the initial state of all new ACA records.
By default, states and operations will appear on the datasheet when you are viewing an ACA record.
By default, all states and operations displayed in the diagram are reserved. This means that you cannot remove or modify any of these states or operations. You can, however, add your own states and operations to the State Configuration.
By default, the MI ACA Owner State Configuration Role is assigned to all predecessor and successor states in the ACA State Configuration. You can assign other State Configuration Roles to any state.
