Figure 1-14. EOS codes for DA Form 2406.
1 List first the EOS code for the subsystem affecting the most
equipment, or failing most often.
2 List second the EOS code for the subsystem causing the next
most problems.
(g) Identify the EOS of a subsystem in the first (primary) position and
then list EOS "Z" in the second position when a system problem is primarily caused by a
shortage of a particular subsystem. Never use EOS "Z" by itself; always use "Z" in the
secondary position so the subsystem shortage is clearly identified.
(h) Use EOS whenever nonavailable time for system is reported.
(i) Use N (other subsystem problems) when problems occur with a
mission critical subsystem not assigned a specific EOS code.
(11) Block 9b(3), Model. Enter the model number of the item.
(a) Leave block 9b(3) blank if the line is an authorized line with
separate models below it.
