Scenario 1: Use an existing diagram as a reusable diagram

Introduction

The first scenario guides you through the creation of a reusable diagram based on a diagram in the IGSS Demo configuration. The reusable diagram feature is best described through practical examples instead of general procedures. To get a feel of the functionality, we recommend that you go through this scenario first and then try creating a reusable diagram from scratch in a real IGSS configuration.

 

Example: The "Refuse Disposal" diagram

In the scenario we will create a work copy of the above diagram. The Refuse Disposal diagram is found in the Plants area of the Demo configuration. The diagram contains a few pumps, valves and temperature gauges which also illustrates how easily you can treat both analog and digital objects with this functionality.

Scenario purpose

The purpose of the scenario is to create a reusable diagram allowing the operator to insert 3 different sets of objects (groups). The objects are as follows:

 

Group name

RefDisp_1 (Control group)

RefDisp_2

RefDisp_3

p1_1

p1_2

p1_3

p2_1

p2_2

p3_2

p3_1

p3_2

p3_3

v11_1

v11_2

v11_3

v12_1

v12_2

v12_3

v14_1

v14_2

v14_3

t1_1

t1_2

t1_3

Temp-Profile_1

Temp-Profile_2

Temp-Profile_3
