This table describes the types of resources that you can use in different Synthesis applications. These resources can be created while you're performing an analysis and also from the Resource Manager.
Note: The Resource Manager in each Synthesis application displays only the resources that may be relevant for that application. For a summary of which applications can create and/or use different types of resources, see http://www.ReliaSoft.com/synthesis/integration.htm.

Used In |
Universal reliability definitions (URDs) describe a set of reliability and maintenance characteristics for a particular component/assembly. |
BlockSim, RCM++, Xfmea, RBI |
Models can represent probabilities, durations or costs, either fixed or time-dependent. They are used by other resources to represent the reliability of a component, the duration of a task, the expected cost of a repair, etc. |
Can be published from analyses in Weibull++, ALTA, BlockSim, DOE++, RGA and Lambda Predict, or created manually. Used in BlockSim, RENO, Xfmea, RCM++ and RBI. |
Tasks represent maintenance activities:
|
BlockSim, RCM++, RBI |
Task packages represent groups of tasks that are performed together at scheduled intervals. |
BlockSim, RCM++, RBI |
Crews represent the personnel who will perform a maintenance task. |
BlockSim, RCM++, RBI |
Spare part pools determine whether a spare part will be available, how long it will take to obtain and how much it will cost. |
BlockSim, RCM++, RBI |
Maintenance groups are used to model situations in which some event within the group can trigger maintenance or state changes for other components/assemblies. |
BlockSim, RCM++, RBI |
Switches describe how the activity transfers between active and standby blocks in BlockSim's standby containers/gates. |
BlockSim |
Mirror groups are used to represent the exact same component/event in more than one location within your analysis. |
BlockSim, RCM++, Xfmea, RBI |
Maintenance templates define the activities that will be performed during a maintenance phase in a phase diagram. |
BlockSim |
Actions describe specific assignments that need to be performed. |
All applications via My Portal; DFR Planner and FMEAs in RCM++, RBI and Xfmea |
Controls may be used in FMEAs and/or control plans to represent methods to reduce or eliminate the risk associated with potential failures. |
RCM++, Xfmea, RBI |
Variables store numerical values that can be programmatically varied during simulation. |
BlockSim, RENO |
RENO functions store equations that are evaluated based on input values passed to the function during simulation. |
RENO |
RENO static functions store equations that are evaluated before simulation begins. |
RENO |
RENO simulation definitions are used to trigger simulation of a BlockSim diagram from within a RENO flowchart, allowing you to use one or more results from the simulation in the flowchart. |
RENO |
RENO tables store arrays of values in rows and columns. |
