# How to see a unit's current state

### Introduction

- This guide describes how you can see what the current state of a unit is.

### States

There are the following states:

- **Running**: The unit is running and producing products.
- **ScheduledLoss**: The unit is not scheduled for production at the current time.
- **Info Stop**: The unit is running but can't produce products because of an outside cause, like the unit hasn't received the necessary materials.
- **Planned stop**: The unit is stopped because of an planned event like a service check.
- **Unplanned stop**: The unit is stopped because of an unplanned event like a power shortage.

### States affect on OEE

- **Running**: Doesn't affect the **OEE** calcuation.
- **ScheduledLoss**: Exclude the period from the **OEE** calculation.
- **Info Stop**: Affects the **Performance** aspect of the **OEE** calculation. The unit is excepted to produce in this period, but it doesn't.
- **Planned stop**: Affects the **Availability** aspect of the **OEE** calculation. The unit isn't running even though the stop is planned, it still lost time in the production window.
- **Unplanned stop**: Affects the **Availability** aspect of the **OEE** calculation. The unit isn't running when it is excepted to run.

### States colors
