From the drop-down menu select Position > Equipment Point > Through.
In the lower left hand corner a screen prompt appears, asking you to identify a point on YY9001FIRE_PUMP_001.
-
By depressing the left hand mouse button and hovering the cursor over the equipment the required point can be selected.
Once the point required is selected, the Move form is displayed, this form moves the current element so that its origin or other P-Point lies on a plane perpendicular to the direction of movement. The plane is defined relative to a reference point.
-
From the Through drop-down menu select the method of repositioning the P-Point and click Apply.
In this case we have selected ID P-Point.
Cursor
Use the cursor to define the point to move to (along the move direction, that means, the reference point). The current element will be moved in the given direction until its origin or a P-Point lies on a line perpendicular to the direction of movement through the reference point.
ID Cursor
Use the cursor to pick a primitive to move to (along the move direction, that means, the reference point). The current element will be moved in the given direction until its origin or a P-Point lies on a line perpendicular to the direction of movement through the reference point.
ID P-Point
Use the cursor to pick a P-Point to move to (along the move direction, that means, the reference point). The current element will be moved in the given direction until its origin or a P-Point lies on a line perpendicular to the direction of movement through the reference point.
Name
Use the cursor to identify a P-Point within the current equipment element. The Name form appears. Enter the name of an element at the position to which you want to move the current element, thus defining the reference point as the origin of that element. OK the Name form. The current element will be moved in the given direction until its origin or a p-point lies on a line perpendicular to the direction of movement through the reference point.
Coordinate
The Coordinate form appears, enabling you to select a direction and a value. This defines a plane at the given coordinate. Then, when you click Apply on the Move form, the current element will be moved in the direction given on the Move form until its origin or a P-Point lies on a line perpendicular to the direction of movement through the reference point.
Pin
Use the cursor to identify a P-Point within the current equipment element. The Pin Number form appears, enabling you to pick a pin as the reference point. When you click Apply on the Move form, the current element will be moved in the direction given until its origin or a P-Point lies on a line perpendicular to the direction of movement through the reference point.
Now in the lower left hand corner a screen prompt appears, asking Identify design P-Point.
The Equipment element is moved so that its origin or other P-Point lies on a plane perpendicular to the direction of movement.
