Point of vigilance: Your EQ is a telecom equipment? (SAT PHONES, BGAN AND GPS - Garmin Inreach Explorer) => contact RadioCom.FR@paris.msf.org for ask to create it


Tips : if in MEMO there is already one EQ with the same brand and model? Use the function duplicate 


Tips : Before creating a new entry, check in the MEMO catalogue application for the family, type, and MSF code. It’s more convenient to use this function for a search than the dropdown list 


Tips : if the rent of the equipment it s for a short term (less than 1 month), it isn’t necessary to create in MEMO

  • Check if the equipment isn’t already in MEMO : write the serial number in the global search

If the EQ doesn’t have a SN, check in “All mission”. Did you check the reception area?


  • Define the MSF number of the EQ  : AAA-XXX
  • 3 letters (The 3 last letters of the type of the equipment. Example : ADAPLAP)
  • 3 numbers: check the last number use for the letters (all mission: filter with the column, “NUM”) 
  • Search by way of a global search the MSF number choice to be sure it isn’t used by another equipment (out, sav…)


Tips : For rental EQ, another MSF number can be used. Example vehicle : LIMA-001
