Problem:

How can I input allowable loads for my nozzles to AutoPIPE and get a report about pump check results?

Solution:

Rotating Equipment utility does not permit the user to enter user defined allowables. The allowables calculated in this report are per code requirements and are described in the online help: 

Help > Contents> Contents Tab> Reference Information> Rotating Equipment Calculations> 

One suggestions to enter in a user allowable values where it can clearly reported as Pass / Fail is to use Insert > Xtra Data> Reference Point> see online help fro details on this command.

This feature permits the user to compare the calculated loads against a set of user defined allowables and to clearly see the results in the Output Report's  Reference Point sub-section. Furthermore, using the "Report Reference Point Results to AutoPIPE Nozzle" option, the user can send the loads over to AutoPIPE Nozzle for further analysis (free for AutoPIPE Advanced and Nuclear licenses).
