The PDS metadata adapter simplifies the process of mapping when you are using the Schema Editor, which is delivered with the SmartPlant Foundation software. This adapter synchronizes the tool map schema with the tool metadata. You must run the MetaData Adapter to synchronize your PDS project data with the PDS3DToolMapSchema.xml.

Follow the steps below to create a session (.eds) file that points to the PDS Project and the Schema configuration file EFSchema.cmf.

  1. Verify that the EFSchema.cmf file information is compatible with the installed version of the schema.

  2. Use any standard text editor to create the session file as shown below:

    <?XML Version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"/>|
    <Container>
    <SPF URL="http://ServerMachineName/SPF2019" Plant="MyPlant">
    <REGISTEREDTOOLS>
    <REGISTEREDTOOL Signature="AAAF" Toolname="PlantDesignSystem3D"
    SourceDescription="PlantDesignSystem3D">
    <TOOLPARAMETER Name="ProjectAddr" Value="C:\Proj1\project\"/>
    <TOOLPARAMETER Name="ProjectNumber" Value="PROJ1"/>
    <TOOLPARAMETER Name="ProjectNode" Value="SERVERNAME"/>
    </REGISTEREDTOOL>
    </REGISTEREDTOOLS>
    </SPF>
    <Configuration>
    `S`C:\Program Files\Common Files\Intergraph\EFSchema\EFSchema.cmf!Y
    `ActS`C:\Program Files\Common Files\Intergraph\EFSchema\EFSchema.cmf!Y
    </Configuration>
    <Forms>
    </Forms>
    Scopeless
    </Container>

    1. As a quickstart, copy the above text and use it to create your .eds session file.

    2. Change the project and tool schema information to meet your project requirements:

      • <TOOLPARAMETER Name="ProjectAddr" Value="C:\Proj1\project\"/>

        Replace Proj1 with your project name and type your project folder location.

      • <TOOLPARAMETER Name="ProjectNumber" Value="PROJ1"/>

        Replace PROJ1 with your project name and number.

      • <TOOLPARAMETER Name="ProjectNode" Value="SERVERNAME"/

        Replace SERVERNAME with your project node.

      You do not need to change the line: <SPF URL="http://ServerMachineName/SPF2019" Plant="MyPlant">.

  3. Start SmartPlant Schema Editor > Developer.

  4. Select File > Session Files > Open Session File, and then select the .eds file you just created that points to the EFSchema.cmf file and the PDS project.

    The Schema Editor begins syncing the projects and displays the Synchronize dialog.

  5. Select SPF 2019 and click OK.

  6. Click OK on the EditorUtils message to continue.

  7. Select PlantDesignSystem3D in the Engineer Applications list.

  8. Select Load map schema and Connect to application schema, and then click OK.

  9. On the EditorUtils message, click Yes to continue.

    The Schema Editor begins syncing the projects and displays the Synchronize dialog.

  10. On the Synchronize dialog, click OK to accept the changes.

  11. Select File > Save > Tool Schema File to save the changes to the PDS3DToolMapSchema.xml file in the project folder, and then exit Schema Editor without saving the session file.

Next: Update the Tool Schema File
