-
You can automate the process of scoping plant items by scoping a composite drawing. Once a composite drawing is scoped, all the plant items that are associated with graphical elements on the drawing are scoped automatically. Furthermore, the parent items of those plant items are also scoped automatically even if the parent items are not on the scoped composite drawing.
-
When scoping an item that is connected in parallel with another equipment item, the software automatically scopes all the items that are connected in parallel to the scoped item. For example, if you select Motor-1 that has been connected in parallel with Motor-2 and Motor-3, the software will also automatically scope Motor-2 and Motor-3 together with their upstream items all the way to their power sources.
-
Certain related items that are scoped, such as circuit internals, do not appear in the Project Management table.
