Prepopulate multiple choices with embed data

TomG , I know you are expert in this space, can you help?

Are the values stored as recodes (I.e., “1, 2”) in the contact list?
You need to parse the comma separated string and loop through the result to set each recode individually.

They are stored as comma separated values as string. I figured out a stupid way of doing it it works but it will be lot of repeated if statements. Looking for elegant way of doing it like you said.
var qobj = this;
var recodes = "${e://Field/Equipment}";
/*alert(" The value of Equipment is " + recodes);*/

if(recodes.includes("Freezer")) {
this.setChoiceValue(1, true);
}
if(recodes.includes("File Cabinet")) {
this.setChoiceValue(2, true);
}
I did not like the above code as each If statement executes here but works!!

var ids = {
"Freezer": 1,
"File Cabinet": 2
};
var qobj = this;
jQuery.each("${e://Field/Equipment}".split(", "),function(i,val){ qobj.setChoiceValue(ids[val],true); });

TomG , you are THE man!
