Specification List

The currently configured specifications within the catalog database are categorized and displayed in the Specification List window, by default the highest element in the hierarchy, specification worlds are displayed.

Use the Spec World Types drop-down to filter specifications relevant to a specific design discipline (Piping, Structural Steel, and so on).

The options are as follows:

• All

• Piping

• Heating & Ventilation

• Cable Trays

• Hanger & Support

• Equipment

• Structural Steel.

  Note:
  All applicable Spec World elements are shown in the Spec Worlds list. This facility reads the Purpose attributes of the Specification Worlds to find the required elements, so it will only work correctly if these have been set. Use the All setting to find a required specification if it is not displayed.

Once the relevant specification world element has been selected, all the specifications which are members of that world are displayed in the window. Select a specification in the list to make it the current selection in the Catalog Explorer.

To view the specification, click Display Spec, the selected specification is displayed. The functionality available from the window is common throughout AVEVA applications.
