Defining KPI Elements for Equipment
On each piece of equipment for which KPIs are to be calculated, define the following KPI elements:
• PRI (planned run time per item)
• PQ (produced quantity)
• GQ (good quantity)
For more information on the KPI elements and how they are used in KPI calculation, see Calculating KPIs.
To define the KPI elements, complete the following steps:
1. In ThingWorx Apps, on the Equipment tab of Configuration and Setup, click the name of the piece of equipment to open the configuration pages.
2. In the configuration menu, click Additional Properties.
3. From the list of additional properties, select the plannedRunTimePerItem_PRI property, and click 
.
.4. Specify a static value for the property if appropriate.
OR
Change the type of the property from Static to Bound, and bind the property to a connected server tag. For example, bind the property to a KEPServerEX tag associated with a sensor on the physical piece of equipment.
For more information, see Additional Properties.
5. Click OK.
6. Repeat steps 3 through 5 for the producedQuantity_PQ and goodQuantity_GQ properties.
 | For equipment using the PTC-provided Line equipment type, the plannedRunTimePerItem_PRI, producedQuantity_PQ, and goodQuantity_GQ properties cannot be bound to KEPServerEX tags by editing these properties on the Additional Properties page. For lines, to define these properties as KPI elements by binding them to KEPServerEX tags, edit the properties on the equipment Thing in ThingWorx Composer, and locally bind them to the appropriate KEPServerEX tags. |
