Energy sources including electrical, mechanical, hydraulic, pneumatic, chemical, thermal, or other sources in machines and equipment can be hazardous to workers. The Energy Sources list allows an administrator to manage the various Energy Sources that are available when building your procedures. Using this function, you can set the default verbiage to use for Lock Method, Unlock Method, Verification etc. which simplifies the creation of your procedures. You can also set what color is associated with the Energy Source, and this color will be displayed on both the app and printed procedure.
