I need to do an equipment schedule by department but the rooms are in a linked model so I don't think I can schedule by their properties? What's the best way to get around this?

So either it's a dumb question or there's no way to do this except for some sort of shared parameter.

I think you need to give some of the MEP folks time to respond because there are not that many regular MEP viewers.  If I have some time and nobody responds before that, I will create a file and see what options I can figure out.

 

In the meantime, you can copy the linked file's rooms and place them in your model to use them.  To do that, you will have to set the linked file to room bounding.  Read this topic in your HELP:Room Boundaries in Linked Models and Using Room Boundaries in a Linked Model

 

Also, this topic may answer your questions. How Revit Architecture and Revit MEP Share Information

Thanks for the response. The equipment schedules are for Lab equipment so it is two Revit 2013 files. The main architect's linked model has the building plan and our model has all the laboratory equipment. Just trying to figure out if there is a way to share the room properties to use them in our model. It doesn't look like you can copy/monitor them.

I think you can use a lot of the MEP process so still read those sections in the HELP.

As a last resort and as I said earlier, you can copy/paste same place all of the rooms into your model.  Then if your families are room aware (THEY MUST BE) then your problem will be solved.
