CADWORX configures pipeline attribute file

Thread Content

RT: CADWORX single-line diagrams can have pipeline property information configured by importing a Pipeline attribute file, such as the operating temperature, operating pressure, design temperature, and design pressure of the pipelines. The specific steps are: I-CONFIGURE → Drawing Manager → Input Files → Pipeline Attributes; select Enabled, then click Path to import the Pipeline attribute file. I’m facing a few issues and hope experts can help resolve them: 1. How should the Pipeline attribute file be configured? What is the file format of the Pipeline attribute file (txt? csv?): Since there are no example files, my understanding is that the Pipeline Reference should be used as the identification information; when extracting data for ISO, the various parameters associated with that pipeline reference (such as operating temperature and operating pressure) are then included in the ISO diagram. In other words, the Pipeline attribute file should contain the pipeline characteristic information for all the pipelines from which ISO diagrams are to be extracted. 2. How to associate the Pipeline attribute file with the Pipeline Attribute that needs to be referenced in the diagram frame?
