Set Up Rules for Automatic Completion of ISO 15926 Mappings

ISO 15926 mappings can be automatically completed. The automatic completion is carried out in accordance with rules set up by the user. For example, the user can specify that the GTYPE of VALV is automatically mapped to the Control Valve designator.

To set up the rules for automatic completion, select the Configure Auto Complete option. The Auto Complete Configuration dialog is then displayed.

To set up a rule:

1. In the Rule field enter a Regular Expression that is used to select which designators are to be mapped using the rule.

   For example, if the rule is to map Control Valves, enter CONTROL VALVE. If the rule is to be used to map different sorts of valve, enter VALVE. All designators containing "VALVE" would be mapped using this rule.

   For guidance on using Regular Expressions, refer to Appendix A: Regular Expressions.

2. In the GTYPE field, select the GTYPE that designators selected by the rule expression are to be mapped to.

3. In the SCSTYPE field, if required, enter the SCSTYPE that designators are to be mapped to.

4. The order in which rules are listed is the order in which they are processed.

   To change the position of a rule in the list of rules, select the row containing the rule and press the up or down arrow option as required.

   Once a rule has been applied to an ISO15926 designator, the mapping it applies cannot be overwritten during that process by another rule.

If the Overwrite existing values checkbox is checked, existing mappings are overwritten when rules are applied. If the checkbox is unchecked, existing mappings, either entered by the user or set by a previous Auto Complete process, are not overwritten.

To delete existing rules, select the rows containing the rules and click Delete Selected Row(s).

To delete all rules, click Delete All.

To close the dialog and save any changes, select the OK option.

To close the dialog without saving changes, select the Cancel option.
