This procedure enables you to define dimensional data parameters for a given dimensional group. These parameters then appear in the Default Data window, the Working Data window, and the Vendor Data window, as well as in the Dimensions section of the Add Data, and Edit Data dialog boxes.

Thirty parameters are available for each dimensional group. You create an active parameter by typing its description, selecting it for use, and setting its allowed minimum value to be zero or greater than zero.

  1. In the Dimensional Data for Piping Module window, select Tables > Dimensional Groups.

    SHARED Tip At this point, you can modify general properties of the dimensional group. For details, see Define a Dimensional Group.

  2. Select Properties.

  3. In the Dimensional Group Properties dialog, under Description, type the required parameter description.

  4. To include this parameter in the selected dimensional group, select Select.

    • To select all thirty parameters, select the Select all check box.

    • You cannot clear a Select check box for a parameter for which the dimensional group is assigned.

  5. If you require the selected parameter to have a value greater than zero, select the Release if Zero check box.

    SHARED Tip Clearing Release if Zero does not prevent you from placing zeros in this field, but rather prevents the release of dimensional data by disabling the Ready for Release option.

  6. Select OK to accept your definitions and return to the Dimensional Groups dialog.
