5.1.3 Building & System Data Tab: BER Recommendations
The available NCM recommendations are listed by Category which can be selected from the left-hand list. Another way of selecting NCM recommendations is through the Code selector at the top. NCM recommendations cannot be deleted.
The user may modify NCM recommendation data (except the Text) and then three things occur:
· The recommendation changes from green to blue in the list
· The bottom frame shows “(EDITED)”
· The “Revert to NCM” button becomes enabled.
“Revert to NCM” will discard the user’s changes and reverse the above three actions.
The user may add new recommendation(s) in the current Category using either the Add or Copy buttons. These appear blue from the beginning and can be deleted.
The user may exclude any recommendations (green or blue) from consideration by SBEMie, by double clicking the tick box in the list. These then change from green or blue to grey. Double clicking the cross back to a tick will include them again and return to the original colour.
In the Recommendations Report, the recommendations will appear as follows:
Section (a) Green NCM recommendations triggered by SBEMie and with a payback of less than 3 years, listed in increasing order of payback
Section (b) Green NCM recommendations triggered by SBEMie and with a payback of 3 to 7 years, listed in increasing order of payback
Section (c) Green NCM recommendations triggered by SBEMie and with a payback of over 7 years, listed in increasing order of payback
Section (d) Blue NCM recommendations triggered by SBEMie *and* all blue USER recommendations (no trigger for these), listed in increasing order of payback
Grey NCM recommendations will not appear at all, even if SBEMie would have triggered them.
Grey USER recommendations will not appear at all.
