Add equipment on site
Updated August 9, 2026 · 1 walkthrough
Registering a unit means its readings, history and next service hang off the equipment rather than off one visit. Do it the first time you see the unit.

Adding a field to a unit with no type
Capture fields are organised by equipment type, so a unit with no type has nothing to attach them to. Set the type first and the relevant fields become available.
Why it is worth the extra minute
- Next year's visit opens with last year's readings already in front of you.
- A failing trend is visible as a trend rather than as an isolated bad number.
- Quoting a replacement is a matter of pointing at the unit's history instead of re-explaining it.
