Wiring Manager

The Instrument Wiring Manager is designed to help you learn how to use the Instrument Wiring Manager module of AVEVA Instrumentation. This section describes how to create detailed project cable and wiring termination data.

Instrument Wiring Manager manages all tasks typically carried out by an Instrument Designer relating to detail cable, wiring and termination design. This includes definition of equipment terminal arrangements (field devices, junction boxes and cabinet devices such as relays, IS barriers and I/O modules), cable creation and termination, cross-patch wiring, generation of Cable Schedules and cable, cable gland and cable gland adapter Bill of Materials. Wiring Manager can be used to:

• Manage all project cables including the definition of cable type, source and destinations, manufacturer, catalog number, length (that means, a typical project Cable Schedule).

• Manage equipment definitions including equipment layouts and terminal arrangements/markings for Junction Boxes, Cabinets, Field Tags, Devices.

• Assign instrument tags to I/O modules.

• Manage cable/wire terminations including automated field device to junction box cabling/terminations.

• Produce Cable Schedules / Bill of Materials, Equipment terminations and other reports.

• Produce Cable Drum Schedule.

• Produce Cable Gland and Cable Gland Adapter Bill of Materials.

• Create detailed Cable and Wire Termination reports.

• Produce interactive Cable Block Diagrams using a drag and drop interface.

• Create I/O assignment/allocation reports.

• Interface with other AVEVA Instrumentation applications to automate production of loop diagrams, junction box and marshalling cabinet termination diagrams and reports, including AutoCAD drawings.

• Share equipment and cables with AVEVA Electrical.
