P+ID Modules (P+ID)

Document Management handles a so-called "P+ID module" in the same way as a normal HiCAD 2-D part. This means that a file exists and that it is assigned to the master record in Document Management. All P+ID modules are stored in a sub-directory in the FILEGRUP.DAT file, normally specified under the ID "7"; as \PID\MODULES.

The User Interface for the functions:

• Create module
• Insert module
• Delete module

can be handled in the same way as the standard 2-D user interface.

Please refer to the HELiOS Online Help to find out about handling database pop-up menus.

Please note:

If you select the P+ID Module from the search result list or select the master data mask with Edit, HiCAD deletes module data but retains the associated document record in the database.

P+ID modules can only be edited in HiCAD P+ID. If you only want to change drawings, you can also use HiCAD 2-D functions. In this case, please remember that the position of connections, fitting points and dialogue text should not be changed.
