Step 3: Upload a Pipeline Flow Network Model from AVEVA Pipeline Integrity Monitor (SimConstruct) to the RealTime database (RTDB)
Upload Pipeline Flow Network Models from SimConstruct to the RealTime database (RTDB).
Notes: The AVEVA Pipeline Operations for Liquids LMSTools application must be installed on the same computer where AVEVA Process Simulation
(APS) and SimConstruct are installed to support the RealTime database (RTDB) upload
functionality. For more information around Installation, please contact AVEVA Customer
Support.
As an alternative to using the SimConstruct user interface, it is also possible to
use the Fnet Export command line tool to upload a Flow Network Model. For more information,
refer to the AVEVA Pipeline Operations for Liquids Developer Guide.
