Energy Sources
In this section, you can define or revise each energy source to be locked out and identify the methods
and devices for doing so. You can also rearrange the order of energy sources and delete energy
sources from the procedure.
To add energy sources:
1. In the Procedure Sections panel, click Energy Sources.
- or -
From the Main Menu, select Edit>Energy Sources. The Energy Sources window opens.
• If the Energy Sources window displays only the tab New Source and all fields are blank, go to
the next step.
• If the window displays
tabs for one or more energy sources , click Add Energy Source to
open a window without existing data.
Tip!
Before entering new information into a field, be sure to double-check that you are not
accidentally overwriting existing data or making unwanted changes to a procedure.
2. Energy Type: Choose the energy type by choosing the type from the drop-down list. After you
enter the location, an icon for that energy source will display below the name and text containing
its abbreviation will display in the Action field.
3. Description: Choose the energy source description by choosing the description you want from
the drop-down list. Or, type your own description into the box. The description will be added to the
energy source box.
Note: Some descriptions (such as volts and psi) display “xx” to remind you to enter a
specific number. When this occurs, click on the x, delete them, and type in the actual
number.
Tip!
The Lockout Step section lets you pull together and/or enter specific instructions for
the lockout step. You can type your own text into any of the text boxes or you can use
the built-in default text. Click the down-arrow in each box to see the options. Click an
option and the text will display in the text box in the window and in the actual procedure.
If these default lists do NOT contain the text or terms you often use, you can easily add
them. See Chapter 7: Setting Defaults for details.
