You can set hyperlinks to files for all equipment data. This is useful for quickly viewing other types of documents such as PDF, DOC, Excel, pictures, and databases that may contain information about the equipment. For instance, while analyzing a switchgear, you might want to review the specifications for LV switchgear, the available datasheet on the existing switchgear, and the maintenance log database. You can set hyperlinks as shown below.
