Check Symbol Link (PE)

Plant Engineering > Link to P+ID > Load > Check symbol link

Use this function to check which parts of the 3-D layout plan are linked to a symbol in the P+ID.

Proceed as follows:

1. In the Link to P+ID tab of the Plant Engineering Settings dialogue window, specify the part types that are to be considered for the check. Click the List button, choose the desired part types in the selection dialogue and exit the window with OK.
2. Load the Plant Engineering drawing that you want to be checked.
3. Select Check symbol link.
4. Answer the security query with Yes.
5. If no P+ID has been assigned to the current Plant Engineering drawing, an appropriate message will be issued. The function will then be aborted.

If a P+ID has been assigned, the Find part(s) dialogue window will be displayed. Activate the P+ID assignment checkbox in the dialogue window, enter a search filter (e.g. *), and select Start search.

The search result will be shown on the right hand side of the dialogue window. A "yes" in the P+ID symbol assignment column means that a P+ID symbol has been assigned to the part, "no" means that no P+ID symbol has been assigned. If the cell is left blank, this means that the part has not been considered for the check.
