Integrator Mode

Integrator mode allows a piping designer to work directly in the 3D canvas in the Piping and Equipment disciplines. It compares 3D model elements against their corresponding schematic (2D) elements allowing quick and easy browsing and reporting any inconsistencies in connectivity, attributes or missing elements according to project rules.

Note:
On entering Integrator Mode, the 3D graphical view switches to monochrome.

Right click on a piping or equipment element, select IntegratorModeContextMenu to enter Integrator Mode.

Select View Diagram to view the element on its schematic diagram.

Select Compare to begin the comparison process, for a description of the comparison functionality, refer to Compare for further information

The Integrator begins to run the comparison, which may take a few minutes. On completion, the results are displayed in the Integrator panel, the differences found during the comparison are also displayed on the 3D graphical view as per the default coloured settings. Refer to Settings for further information.

Note:
The system administrator configures Integrator rules to suit project requirements.
