This feature enables you to store and manage preliminary dimensional data for your instrumentation design. You can use standard (default) dimensions of known manufacturers who are likely to supply the instruments. This Default data is stored in the Default Library which allows you browse through the data, modify it, and copy it to the Working data as needed. After sufficient Default data is available, the DDP designer can provide this data to the piping designers for their preliminary design. The Default data will then be replaced or modified according to the actual dimensional data received from the manufacturers.
Note that you must first define the appropriate dimensional group, the process connection
data, and the manufacturer before you can start entering default data. Remember that
only one set of default dimensional data can exist for a domain.
