    • The VMRS Repeat Thresholds display screen appears.
  2. Click All/Selected to view all VMRS codes.

    Task is the VMRS task the threshold applies to. You can right-click in the field and select Prompt to select the task from a list.

    Group is the equipment group the threshold applies to. Only one of Group or Type should be entered on a line. You can right-click in the field and select Prompt to select the group from a list.

    Type is the equipment type the threshold applies to. Only one of Group or Type should be entered on a line. You can right-click in the field and select Prompt to select the equipment type from a list.

    Note that super equipment types are allowed. If a super is defined, it means the threshold days will apply to all equipment types within that super, unless the individual equipment types also have their own threshold defined.

    Days is the minimum number of days between performance of the task on units in the specified group or type. If the task is performed sooner, a warning message is displayed on the work order screen. This lets the technician know when the frequency of repairs is unusually high for a particular unit.

  7. Click Enter to save the thresholds.
  8. Click Exit to return to the menu.
