Lexicon Database

Before a project can use any of the resources covered in this manual a Dictionary (DICT) database must be created as part of a Multiple Database (MDB). Use the Admin module in the same way as for any other type of database. Refer to Databases for further information

Elements within the Lexicon may be changed or deleted during the course of a project. The dictionary will contain all the definitions for a project and if data is to be transferred between AVEVA E3D DesignAVEVA E3D projects the dictionary must be transferred as well. The data output and project reconfiguration functions can be used to do this. A user may create elements within other databases such as MODEL from definitions within the Lexicon database, however if the Lexicon database is removed then these elements will return to being represented by their base type in the Model database.
