Overview
The term downtime is used to refer to periods when a system is unavailable to perform its primary function. (WIKI). FIIX CMMS ships with a downtime tracker that gives organizations the ability to measure downtime, uptime, MTTR, and MTBF. To trigger a downtime event, machine operators or technicians can toggle the asset to the offline mode, assign a reason code for the downtime event and provide optional comments. It is possible to add your own offline statuses in the settings section of the CMMS.
