The Equipment Manager section of OBEM uses information from the building automation system to collate and present data about equipment performance metrics, such as faults and operating parameters. You can use this information to identify recurring problems and areas for improvement. You must configure any equipment you plan to monitor in OBEM in the Setup section of the user interface. This configuration includes information about equipment relationships, so you must know how each item of equipment relates to other equipment and spaces in the building. This information is crucial for the fault detection and diagnostics functionality, which you can use to examine a fault in detail and then create a work order to resolve.
