The Systems and Specifications task defines a system hierarchy for your model. All design data can then be organized under this hierarchy. In addition to organizing the various piping, equipment, duct, cableway, and structural elements into systems in the hierarchy, you can also assign the allowed specifications for each system. These specifications then limit part selection and placement, based on the specific design needs of your project.

The available system types that can be created are Ducting, Piping, Pipeline, Electrical, Conduit, Structure, Equipment, Generic, Area, and Unit. By organizing design information into systems, the software enables queries and filters by the systems that you have defined. This filtering makes it much simpler to obtain information on only that portion of the total model design that you need at any given time.

You can start the Systems and Specifications task by clicking Task > Systems and Specifications. The Systems and Specifications task has the following task-specific commands:

New Generic System Command

Creates a new generic system in the model.

New Conduit System Command

Creates a new conduit system in the model.

New HVAC System Command

Creates a new ducting system in the model.

New Electrical System Command

Creates a new electrical system in the model.

New Equipment System Command

Creates a new equipment system in the model.

New Piping System Command

Creates a new piping system in the model.

New Pipeline System Command

Creates a new pipeline system in the model.

New Structure System Command

Creates a new structure system in the model.

New Unit System Command

Creates a new unit system in the model.

New Area System Command

Creates a new area system in the model.

Define Allowed Specifications Command

Specifies which specifications are allowed during the design of your model.

Import Systems Hierarchy from Excel Command

Creates systems and a system hierarchy based on data from a Microsoft Excel workbook. The Import Systems from Excel command is only available from the Tools menu.
