Device Identification Category (Identification)
Device IDs include the following properties:
- Name (Name, String) - Device name
Use nomenclature that identifies the element in the way you would normally show it on your service notes, for example: EDA - 01, PV - 25
Avoid names that are too long, or that contain the following characters: '*', '>', '<', '/', '\', '"', ':', ';', '|', '=', '`', '#', ',', '?'
- Id (Id, ObjectId) - It is the identification of the block in the AutoCAD database
- Description (Description, String) - Device description
Sometimes it is necessary to make some type of note on the device, informing something that does not have a specific property for such, for example: a wing may be silted and this information is relevant in the project
- Priority (Priority, Enumerator) - Indicates the state of the device, it can be:
- Neutral - indicates that the device has no geometry or Design issues
- Warning - indicates that the device has Design problems, in this case, see the Calculations category
- Critical - indicates that the device has geometry or Design issues
Geometry problems are those that make it impossible to build the device, such as wall thickness equal to zero, pipe diameter equal to zero.
These problems usually
cause modeling error in the solid.
Critical Designing problems occur when the device has rules that, when evaluated, indicate critical problems, such as negative slope in the pipes, surface adjustment in culverts greater than zero (the top elevation is above the pavement)
- Family (Family, String) - Informs the device type family to which this device belongs
This property is set in the device's builder
- SubType (SubType, String) - would be a secondary classification of the device.
For example, in a hydraulic ladder, the family is called "Ladder" while its entry, which is a component of the ladder itself, is the Subtype in question, so, as well as other subtypes: steps, ground exit, ditch exit, manhole exit
This property is configured in the device's builder
- ToolTip (ToolTip, String) - Provides a string that has the ability to write device information
It is useful to inform the size of a device in a reduced form, for example: "Ala 600 mm", or "BDCC 2.00 m x 2.00 m", without having to write this information for these devices:
This property is configured in the device Constructor
- QTO (Qto, String) - In case you have a service composition worksheet and
want to link a specific service to a quantity that you would normally read from the device, such as pipe length, or else "Ditch regularization....
" which is quantified by the trench length, this item lists all service codes associated with the device, from which quantities are read.
To edit the QTO codes that the device updates, select the device and in the Properties tab
click the button
:
Note that it is necessary to choose the QTO file that contains the activity codes.
See more about this in the topic Service Compositions
- OmniClass (OmniClass, String) - code in OMNICLASS (BIM) tables this code is associated with the section in the BOM
If the device properties are identical to those present in your section, the OmniClass code will be the same.
If any property is different, a "*" appears in the code
If a code is assigned to the device that is present in the material list and the section has the same constructor, the device section will assume the properties of that section
- Code (Code, String) - Builder code inside the catalog
A code to identify the builder.
Typically used in network numbering in the global template.
For example, imagine that the structure name should be PV - A25.
"PV" would be this code, "A" would be the network name and "25" the structure number.
- Device Number (PartNum, String) - Device number within the network, is generated when numbering the network
In the example above, it would be the "25" in the structure name
- Branch (SubNet, String) - Device branch number, generated by numbering the network with branch numbering< type /li>
