Not really sure I understand. Are you trying to install MSL controls in the plant? If so, do you mean from the standpoint of say a MSL 5 part that has been exposed to the mfg floor for 24 hours then returned to the cabinet: how do you collect the information of how long it was exposed, when it was returned to the cabinet, that kind of information? Or are you trying to find out what physically happens to a part that has exceeded its floor life?
