Siemens COMOS User Manual

Function description
1.
COMOS reads out the pipe spec set at the P&ID object and searches for the base object
of the corresponding pipe spec.
2. COMOS reads out the P&ID function code of the P&ID object.
3. COMOS searches the standard table for function codes and compares the values or masks
entered in the "Value 2" column with the function code of the P&ID object.
4. For all entries with a matching value:
– COMOS searches for all pipe spec elements with a matching function code from the
pipe spec.
– For the pipe spec elements, COMOS checks whether the nominal diameter set at the
P&ID object corresponds to the nominal diameter range of these pipe spec elements.
– If it does, COMOS makes the pipe spec elements available to the user for selection
during pipe spec mapping.
5. The user selects the required object from the list of possible pipe part catalog objects.
11.2.3 Result of pipe spec mapping
● The P&ID object is retained as the request. The P&ID user continues to work with the P&ID
object.
● The pipe part catalog object selected by the user is created in the engineering data as an
implementation underneath the P&ID object.
Users can move the pipe part catalog object to a different location later on in the engineering
process.
● The P&ID object gets an implementation pointer to the pipe part catalog object.
● The connection type of the P&ID object is determined by the connection type of the pipe
part catalog object.
● The nominal pressure at the pipe is linked with the pipe spec nominal pressure.
● The symbol of the pipe part catalog object is used on the P&ID. However, the P&ID object
remains the report object.
11.3 Overview of the configuration sequence
To link the P&ID catalog to the pipe part catalog, proceed as follows:
1. Standard table for the function codes of P&ID objects: Enter the P&ID function codes.
See Adding P&ID function codes (Page 124).
2. Standard table for the function codes of the pipe part catalog objects: Enter the link code
for the P&ID objects.
See Linking the P&ID function code to the function codes (Page 125).
