This section specifies the template defect.
NOTE
The template has been defined in the context of
UK_Defence.
Refer to the business context for details of related templates.
NOTE
An explanation of a template and the associated instantiation path is
provided in the
Template overview
section.
This template describes how to represent a fault that is caused by a shortcoming in the design or manufacture of a product.
This template describes how to represent the UK_Defence concept of a defect in terms of PLCS
model elements (templates, entities, and reference data).
The EXPRESS-G diagram in
Figure
2
shows the templates and EXPRESS entities that are required
to represent the template
"defect".
The text highlighted in blue shows the template parameters.
Figure 2 — An EXPRESS-G representation of the Information model for defect
The graphic for the template to be used in other EXPRESS-G diagrams
is shown in Figure

below.

The following input parameters are defined for this template:
This is the reference to the product on which the defect occurred.
New_defect (Default=Anomalous_state_of_unknown_novelty,Type='STRING')
This is an indicator as to whether the defect is a new type of defect.
This is the identifier of the defect.
The organization that created the associated identifier. Additionally
a Person or Information System could be defined when either of these are the source; see Identifier template characterizations
This is the name given to the defect.
The organization that created the associated name.
The method used to detect the defect.
The method used to isolate the defect.
The suspected cause of the defect.
Title (Default=/OPTIONAL,Type='STRING', Optional)
The title given to the defect.
The category of the method by which the defect was detected
The following classes and their sub-classes can be used:
classifications: [Anomaly_with_defined_detection_method]![[warning:]](../../../../../../images/dex/warning.gif)
Error RDL4: The URI urn:plcs:rdl:uk_defence is not listed in dexlib/data/refdata/rdl_index.xml
The category of the method by which the defect was isolated.
The following classes and their sub-classes can be used:
classifications: [Anomaly_with_defined_isolation_method]Error RDL4: The URI urn:plcs:rdl:uk_defence is not listed in dexlib/data/refdata/rdl_index.xml
A "flag" that is used to indicate whether the product to which the defect is related can continue to be operted
until the defect is repaired.
The following classes and their sub-classes can be used:
classifications: [Anomaly_with_defined_operability_consequences]Error RDL4: The URI urn:plcs:rdl:uk_defence is not listed in dexlib/data/refdata/rdl_index.xml
The category of severity of the defect.
The following classes and their sub-classes can be used:
classifications: [Anomaly_with_defined_severity]Error RDL4: The URI urn:plcs:rdl:uk_defence is not listed in dexlib/data/refdata/rdl_index.xml
Priority (Default=/OPTIONAL,Type='CLASS', Optional)
The priority of rectifying the defect.
The following classes and their sub-classes can be used:
classifications: [Anomaly_with_defined_rectification_priority]Error RDL4: The URI urn:plcs:rdl:uk_defence is not listed in dexlib/data/refdata/rdl_index.xml
An indicator of whether the defect can be rectified with the related product in situ (in its normal operating location).
The following classes and their sub-classes can be used:
classifications: [Anomaly_with_defined_in_situ_reparability]Error RDL4: The URI urn:plcs:rdl:uk_defence is not listed in dexlib/data/refdata/rdl_index.xml
This is the reference to the person / organization / system that detected the defect.
The reference to the geographic location of the related product when the defect was detected.
The reference to the zone of the product in which the defect was detected.
The reference to the BITE code and / or data that is associated with the defect
The reference to the related activity that will / has rectified the defect.
The reference to the activity that was being performed when the defect was detected.
The reference to the mission (and hence the related theatre and scenario) in which the defect occurred.
The reference to a change that may be associated with the defect.
The date and time when the repair was hastened.
The date and time when the defect was detected.
The following reference parameters are defined for this template:
Allow the
State_definition
entity instantiated in this path to be referenced when this template is used.
%^target = $defect.defect%
The following parameter combinations specify a uniqueness constraint:
Unique constraint: Unique defect
Each instance of the
entity
(
State_definition)
within the data set shall be uniquely identified
by a combination of the following parameters on this
template (defect) namely:
ID,
Name,
Related_product.
The
instance is
referenced by the following template parameter:
defect.
The instantiation path shown below specifies the entities that are to be
instantiated by the template.
A description of templates and the syntax for the instantiation path is
provided in the
Templates Help/Information section.

The instance diagram in Figure

shows an example of the EXPRESS entities and templates that are instantiated by the template:
/defect(New_fault='New_anomalous_state', ID='D001', ID_source_organization='UK_Defence', Name='Cotter pin iwth incorrect tolerance', Name_source_organization='UK_Defence', Detection_method='/OPTIONAL', Isolation_method='/OPTIONAL', Suspected_cause='/OPTIONAL', Title='/OPTIONAL', Detection_method_category='State_observed', Isolation_method_category='State_observed', Operable_until_repaired='State_observed', Severity='State_observed', Priority='State_observed', Repair_in_situ='State_observed', Related_Product='@170', Detected_by='@245')/
(an illustration of the consolidated defect template is shown in
Figure
5 below.)

The instance diagram in
Figure

shows the graphic symbol for the template that is to be
used in other instance diagrams. The example template is:
/defect(New_fault='New_anomalous_state', ID='D001', ID_source_organization='UK_Defence', Name='Cotter pin iwth incorrect tolerance', Name_source_organization='UK_Defence', Detection_method='/OPTIONAL', Isolation_method='/OPTIONAL', Suspected_cause='/OPTIONAL', Title='/OPTIONAL', Detection_method_category='State_observed', Isolation_method_category='State_observed', Operable_until_repaired='State_observed', Severity='State_observed', Priority='State_observed', Repair_in_situ='State_observed', Related_Product='@170', Detected_by='@245')/

Characterizations
No common characterizations of the template
defect
have been identified. However, the ISO 10303-239 EXPRESS model
may enable other assignments to the entities instantiated by the template.
