After the System Administrator initializes and creates a domain, Smart Instrumentation creates the following items:

  • Reference cables

  • Reference device panels with terminal strips

  • Connection types

These reference items suffice for the most common connections to device panels. For more sophisticated combinations, you should create your own reference items.

For example, for a 2-wire device you need to create in the Reference Explorer:

  • A device panel with a two- terminal strip named DEFAULT 2W DEVICE PANEL

  • A cable with a shielded twisted pair (cable + one shielded pair), named DEFAULT 2W CABLE

  • A connection device that connects two wires from a pair one after the other named 2 IN A ROW

You can then select the above items the wiring profile to define the reference wiring properties for a given instrument type.

When you start a new wiring scheme, the folders in the Domain Explorer are empty. You can right-click one of the panel folders in the Domain Explorer and on the shortcut menu, select New and then select the required option. The Reference Explorer contains several reference panels and cables that are provided as shipped data that you can copy to the Domain Explorer.

You must have appropriate access rights to alter the reference items.
