Use the HVAC translation mapping sheets in the S3DPDMSExportMapping.xls workbook to map Smart 3D HVAC properties to the correct PDMS HVAC attributes. Before exporting Smart 3D HVAC model data to PDMS, you must modify these sheets to ensure that the following criteria have been met:
-
All of the components in the Smart 3D model are mapped to corresponding components in PDMS.
-
All of the stock parts, bends, and supports in the Smart 3D model are mapped to corresponding items in PDMS.
-
Specifications and end preparations are mapped between the two systems.
After all of the mapping is completed in the S3DPDMSExportMapping.xls workbook, run the PDMS Export Validation command to validate the mapping data in the workbook. Any missing entries reported by the validation tool should be resolved. For more information, see PDMS Export Validation.
