The Smart P&ID interface allows you to import P&ID drawing data (for example; pipe runs, vessels and instruments) into your database from a Smart P&ID database.
You import the P&ID data first by connecting to the appropriate Smart P&ID database from which the Smart Instrumentation Import Utility will import the drawing data.
After you connect to the Smart P&ID database you select the source unit and source P&ID. With the source data selected, you can perform the import setup process and import the selected P&ID data.
In the Smart P&ID Interface, when you create a new link for importing data into a table while connected
to a plant, the software automatically creates the correct connection in the link
properties.
Smart P&ID must be closed before starting the import session, to ensure that any modifications
made to the drawings are properly imported to Smart Instrumentation.
