Placing Equipments

You can place an equipment in a diagram view.

A representation for the equipment can be defined under the equipment or in the Data Setup. If no representation is found for this type of equipment, a representation is searched among its fathers' type. For more information about definition of a representation in Data Setup, see Equipment Resources.


Before you begin:
  • Create an equipment.
  • Create a symbol representation for the equipment.
  • Open an existing diagram view.
  1. In the tree, right-click the equipment and select Place in View.
  2. Click the diagram view at the convenient place to insert the component.
    The symbol is placed and a context toolbar appears.
    Note: You can define a full or partial representation for equipements through main and called representations. For more information, see About Main and Called Representations.
  3. Optional: To modify the position of the symbol, select one of the following commands:
    • Flip horizontally
    • Flip vertically
    • Rotate to left by 90 degrees
    • Rotate to right by 90 degrees
  4. Click anywhere in the diagram view to validate the placement.
