Figure 1: Location Tab
There are several tabs that are common to most or all equipment data dialog boxes. For information, see:
You can specify the location of the equipment on the floor of a building. You can give the location a name, specify the X and Y coordinates of the location, and select a floor.
The coordinates could be measured in feet, for example, or they could represent points on a grid. There are no units associated with the coordinates, so you can use whatever measurement makes sense for you.
For more information, see Facilities, Floors, and Locations.
