Different types of events.

Downtime Types

TilliT includes the following built-in downtime types that can be used when raising equipment events:

Downtime Type	Description
UNPLANNED	Unplanned equipment downtime not attributable to a specific cause.
BREAKDOWN	Equipment breakdown events, tracked separately from general unplanned downtime.
PLANNED	Scheduled downtime such as maintenance windows.
UNAVAILABLE	Periods where the asset is not available, such as shift breaks.

BREAKDOWN is a distinct downtime type that allows breakdown events to be reported and analysed separately from UNPLANNED downtime.
