Use the PDMS 30.01 Configure PDMS screen to configure the origin and/or the defaults of the data for the PDMS transfer on PDMS 20.01.

These settings are project- or product group-specific. Product group settings affect only the attached projects that do not have their own configuration. You can use the functionality to copy the product group configuration to the logged on project.

Languages for Detail Text

Enter the NLS for RTEXT/XTEXT, STEXT/YTEXT (optional, only for several languages), and TTEXT/ZTEXT (optional, only for several languages):

The detail text name is typed in the specification and the catalog and describes the manner of the component. The text is stored in the RTEXT, STEXT, and TTEXT attributes. The text of the isometric is distributed on the parts list at construction. The SKEY attribute of the detail text selects the corresponding symbol in ISOGEN.

The material text name is typed in the specification and the catalog and describes the material of the component. The text is stored in the XTEXT, YTEXT, and ZTEXT attributes. The text of the isometric is distributed on the parts list at construction.

Definition for Bolts

Enter the defined rule (PDMS 20.04) for the bolts.

This rule contains all single bolts.

Suffixes and Fix Values

  • GMREF Suffix - Default suffix for the GMREF (geometry set reference to a 3D geomset)

    GMREF is a reference indicator to a 3D Geomset element.

    A 3D geomset is a grouping of the primitive elements that make up a piping component, joint, or fitting. It specifies the dimensions, orientation, and obstruction geometry of each primitive. The geomset defines what is drawn for a particular component by PARAGON (and other PDMS modules), and also defines the obstruction geometry of the component for use when clash checking. Each component is built up from a combination of three-dimensional primitives.

  • PTREF Suffix - Suffix for the PTREF (point set reference).

    PTREF is a reference indicator to 3D point set element.

    A PTSET is a group of P-Point elements. P-Points are used for construction to positioning and orientation, and to verify the connection of the elements. P-Points are also required by the construction of the 3D geomset in PARAGON.

  • DTREF Suffix - Suffix for the DTREF (dataset reference)

    Design Datasets (DDSE) are used to store the properties of design template items, which may then be used to define the template’s parameters. Each property is stored in a Design Data (DDAT) element under a DDSE, with each DDAT being identified by a keyword held in its DKEY attribute. The property definition can be specified by an expression held in the DDPR (Design Data Property) attribute, while a default value for the property (to be used if the expression cannot be evaluated for any reason) can be stored in the DDDF (Design Data Default) attribute.

    Unlike a design reference to a catalog component, which can access only a single catalog dataset via its DTREF setting, a reference to a design template can access more than one design dataset. A local design dataset is owned directly by the current element, a template design dataset is owned by the first template below the current element, while a current design dataset is at the same level as the current element and has the same owner.

  • CMPW - Default name for the component data element CMPW (Component World).

    You can copy a configuration from the product group into the project. There you can modify the configuration specific to the project.

Attributes for Flange Bolt Points

Enter the attributes for the bolt diameter, number of bolts, flange thickness, an additional attribute for flange thickness, and the bolt type.

Settings for Specon Files

You can set the Catref to the ident code in the Specon files for the elbolets and weldolets. For this purpose, use the Rule for Elbolets & Weldolets field in the Spec Transfer block at the bottom of the screen. Select a rule defined on PDMS 20.04 PDMS Groups from the LOV in this field to identify the elbolets and weldolets. If the rule for elbolets and weldolets is specified here, the components (idents) identified as elbolets and weldolets by this rule will be set in the Specon file.

If the Append to Catref? check box is selected, the translated values of PBORs from S.40.01 Nominal Sizes Window 2 will be appended to the Catref.

The translated values are defined in the Dn Translation field on S.40.01 Window 2.

Geometric and Attributes for Insulation

In the Geometric for Insulation field, enter the geometry table that contains information about the insulation.

Enter attributes in the DN from, DN to, Temp from, Temp to, and Thickness fields.
