Drawing Title Setup Preferences

Designer provides facilities for the importing of loop diagram, termination diagram and enhanced cable block diagram drawing records from other AVEVA Instrumentation applications as described in Import Drawings into the Drawings List.

AVEVA Instrumentation enables you to define how the drawing titles will be created based on values assigned to the loop or equipment engineering data.

To define imported diagram drawing titles

1. From the Project tab, click Setup.

2. Click either Loop Titles (Import format), Termination Titles (Import format) or Enhanced Cable Block Diagrams Titles (Import format) as required.

   The appropriate Import Drawing Title Settings window is then displayed (for example):

   

   The window contains three fields that defines each of the Drawing List's title data fields. Each title can contain a mixture of text and DataLinks. On importing a new loop diagram from Engineer's Loop List, AVEVA Instrumentation will replace the DataLinks with the value for the database field within the DataLink. For example: Title 1 above is defined as: AREA {AreaNo}. When checking for new loops, if AVEVA Instrumentation found a new loop in area 21 then Title 1 would be: AREA 21.

3. To edit each import title, open the field on the right of Title field for the desired title field.

4. To select a DataLink, check the appropriate checkbox in the field for the DataLink(s) required.

   AVEVA Instrumentation will add the selected DataLink to the Title field.

5. The Title field can be edited manually, text added or deleted as required.

6. Click Save to save the title format.
