You can specify the static relationship of systems to one another on the SV-1 System Interface Description diagram. This product builds on the logical operational view that you created in the OV-02 Operational Resource Flow diagram.

On the SV-1 diagram, you specify the allocations of specific systems that are being addressed for implementing specific functions.

This graphic is described in the surrounding text.
