Schematic Model Viewer
The Schematic Model Viewer allows users to view the contents of the schematic model database independently of diagram layouts. It provides a continuous navigable view of equipment items and the interconnecting networks, independently of which system they belong to or which P&ID they have been drafted on.
The ConnMapAddin with Schematic module is implemented as a CAF Add-in, meaning that it can be hosted by different applications. The viewer will also require access to a SCHE DB as part of the current MDB.

Sample Model Map results
To start the viewer, the user will have to select an equipment item. This item will be placed at the centre of the generated view and the system will automatically find all connections in the database and display each connection as a graphical sub tree. Each sub tree is traversed through all branches until other equipment items or branch ends are encountered.
Branching points (such as Tees, Owlets or 3-way valves) are represented by a generic branching point symbol. The initially generated view will not extend beyond the equipment items encountered at the end of the branches, but it is possible for the user to manually expand and continue exploring along the schematic network. Equipment items are displayed using different symbols, selected by a set of customer definable rules.
