Gday,
ACADE is all about Parametric design... relating components in different views to each other. This works on the concept of using the same component tage in a schematic design, and a physical panel layout. But what about the other forms of design??
Things like single line diagrams, they will show VSDs etc, as well as motors... which then go into a schematic, which will show the same information, and then they will go into a Termination diagram, which will show the connection information. From there a Panel layout will show the VSD, but not the motor. So, we would then have the same piece of equipment shown on 4 different drawings, and have a different symbol for each.
ACADE has provision for the Schematic and Panel layout, but what about the single line diagram and the termination diagram?? Is there a way I can get ACADE to recognise the difference between these??
Cheers, Owen
