List Item Details

This procedure is used when validating a drawing to check information regarding a selected item, e.g., its sequence ID, item type, owning pipe etc.

Note: The sequence IDs of all entities in a pipe can be viewed and if necessary edited using the Managing Groups procedure.

Procedure

1. Start the procedure by selecting the List AVEVA P&ID attributes option in the Properties group of the Home tab

2. The Command prompt will display:

   Select entity:

   Pick the item, e.g. a pipe.

3. The Command prompt will then display something similar to this:

   *Item Handle: 8DC

   *Registered application name: AVEVA P&ID-07058MU04269U42VFK7

   *Code 1000, ASCII string: PSU

   The ASCII string PSU shown above is the item type.

4. If a pipe label is picked, Sequence ID information will be displayed:

   *Code 1070, Branch id: 2

   *Code 1070, Sequence id: 1

5. If a start node is picked, the following type of information about that pipe or line will be displayed:

   Item Handle: 1B9B

   *Registered application name: AVEVA P&ID-07058MU04269U42VFK7

   *Code 1000, ASCII string: PSN

   * Code 1070, Branch Id: 17

   * Code 1005, Associated Handle: 1B9C

   * Code 1005, Associated Handle: 1B9D

   * Code 1000, Pipe Label field 1: 1/2"

   * Code 1000, Pipe Label field 2: SW

   * Code 1000, Pipe Label field 3: 20

   * Code 1000, Pipe Label field 4: 2323

   * Code 1000, Pipe Label field 5: S1A

   * Code 1000, Pipe Label field 6: <NONE>

   * Code 1000, Pipe Label field 7: <NONE>

   * Code 1000, Pipe Label field 8: <NONE>

   * Code 1000, Pipe Label field 9: <NONE>

   * Code 1000, Pipe Label field 10: <NONE>

   * Code 1000, Pipe Label field 11: <NONE>

   * Code 1000, Pipe Label field 12: <NONE>

6. To identify the pipe that owns an item, carry out this procedure for an item. The owner is identified as follows:

   *Code 1070, Branch id: 2

   In this example, the owner of the item is the pipe with the branch id of 2.

   If the branch id is not set, the item has no owner, and no attempt has been made to assign one. If the branch id is set to -1, an attempt has been made to graphically assign an owner to the item, but this has failed.

7. The command ends automatically.
