Integrated asset management
12.1 Configurations with Maintenance Station
Asset management
In the "MS server as separate computer" option you create a separate project in the multiproject
for the PC stations for asset management
The data present in the multiproject serves as the basis for asset management (diagnostics
blocks, HW Config, system charts with diagnostic blocks and PDM).
The names of the components in the diagnostics area are derived from the names of the
components in HW Config and PDM. Assign unique names that do not exceed 14 characters.
