Line List Configuration
Line List Configuration
Using the standard PDMS/Marine Search facility, users may retrieve and view the line list of the project, derived from the imported schematic data. For practical examples of line list configuration and generation, see 20.7: Appendix G: Configuration of Line Lists using Pseudo Attributes.
In addition simple schematic line and 3D line data, which does not conform to the schematic connectivity model (does not contain a member hierarchy), and which may have for example been imported from an Excel spreadsheet, can be compared based on derived connectivity configured using this feature.
Before this can be done, additional configuration is required to specify which elements are to be included in the line list/line list compare and to add rules for generating the text displayed in the line list for the From and To attributes. In addition rules may be defined for specifying how diagram names are displayed in the line list. For an example of the use of Line List pseudo attributes with AVEVA Schematic 3D Integrator to compare a simplified 2D connectivity model against a 3D model please see the Schematic 3D Integrator User Guide.
This configuration is carried out using the Line List Configuration dialog. Select Tools > Line List Options from the main menu to display the Line List Configuration window.
The dialog consists of three sections. The left-hand section displays a tree-view of the configuration rule groups and the rules they contain, and is used to create and delete rules.
The rule nodes are LLENTRY, LLFROM/LLTO and LLDIAGRAMS.
LLENTRY, LLFROM, and LLTO are pseudo attributes of the Schematic SCPLINE and SCBRANCH elements, and of the Design PIPE and BRANCH elements. These pseudo attributes can be used to configure output for inclusion in a line list. In addition they can be used in conjunction with Schematic 3D Integrator to compare a simple Schematic Pipe and Branch structure (for example one which has been imported from a spreadsheet, and which does not use the Schematic connectivity model) against a 3D piping network.
LLDIAGRAMS is a pseudo attribute of the SCPLINE and SCBRANCH elements and is used to configure line lists.
The rule groups and the top level Line List Configuration node are fixed and cannot be deleted or added to.
The Rule Properties section is used to define and display the properties of whichever rule or group is currently selected in the tree view. The Rule Filters section is used to create filter to apply the currently selected rule.
Note that a number of default rules are supplied with the application. These are described briefly below.
To close the dialog and save changes made to line list configuration, click OK. To close the dialog without saving changes, select the Cancel option.
