The generation of size-dependent data with the creation of PMC/PCD on PDS 10.12 is no longer supported. Alternatively, use PDS 10.10 for that purpose.
For all idents needed in a product group/project, size-dependent data is created with the following attributes:
Commodity Code DNRed DNGreen SchThrot SchThGreen Ident
The SchThrot and SchThGreen attributes will be found with the Wallthick 1 and Wallthick 2 fields.
The Ident Code attribute is the result, not the Ident attribute.
No size-dependent data results for screws. The interface recognizes screws from the ZYDEX code (6Q3C97s, 6Q3C98, 6Q3C95).
The size-dependent data only results for parts available in the pipe class.
The schedule for the size-dependent data is always created via S.20.08.
The schedule is changed with the following logic:
-
$.375 translates into .375
-
S$40 translates into S-40
Size-dependent data should only be generated if really required, because this process can take a long time. To activate size-dependent data generation with PCD generation, select the Create always during PCD Generation check box.
The following set of options controls the output of the idents. The available options are:
-
all Idents in Project/PG - The output contains all idents in the project/product group (PG), regardless of the specification.
-
only Spec Item Idents - Filters the idents like S.50.07, for specifications in the project/product group scope.
-
only Spec Item Idents in project - Filters the idents like S.50.07, for the specifications in the project.
-
only Idents in discipline with CC in Spec - Retrieves idents of the actual discipline that have their commodity code (CC) in one of the project/product group specifications.
-
only Idents with CC in project Spec - Retrieves idents that have their commodity code (CC) in one of the project specifications.
The settings in the Size Depending Data section apply to generation runs from PDS 10.12.
