This topic describes the specification requirements for rectangular offset (OFST) components.
Parameter description requirements
-
Parameter #1 = Width of arrive
-
Parameter #2 = Height of arrive
Data set requirements
For information about data set requirements that apply for all rectangular components, refer to Rectangular component requirements.
The following requirements are in addition to the data references that are created for parameters.

** Where the Default value is set to a parameter, the Expression value must be set to the same parameter. This is applicable for all component types.
P-point requirements
For information about P-point requirements that apply for all rectangular components, refer to Rectangular component requirements.
P-point P2 is PTMI type because it is offset from the Z axis.
The following table shows the additional required P-points:
|

Connection Type (PCON) |
Bore (PBOR) |
Axis Direction (PAXI) |
PZ Axis (PZAXI) |
Point Width (PWID) |
Point Height (PHEI) |

Specification requirements
The following specification headings are required:
-
Type (TYPE)
-
Duct Shape (PSHA)
-
Duct Width (PWID)
-
Duct Height (PHEI)
Specific Type (STYP) is not required but is used in AVEVA supplied rectangular specifications.
