The following steps illustrate how to map PDMS piping components and instruments to corresponding Smart 3D components and instruments. This mapping is required prior to importing PDMS piping component data into Smart 3D.

  1. Navigate to the [Product Folder]\3DRefData\SharedContent\Data\Translators\PDMSS3DImport folder, and open the PDMSS3DImportMapping.xls workbook.

  2. Locate the S3DXMLPartTypeMap translation mapping sheet, map the PDMS piping GType present in the .datal and .att file to the corresponding Smart 3D value, such as component, instrument, or support. An example is shown below:

  3. Save the mapping sheet.

  4. Locate the SPREFS3DIdentifierPatternMap translation mapping sheet, map the PDMS component SPRE to the relevant Smart 3D short code, and then save the mapping sheet.

  5. Locate the ShortCodeAdditionalAttributes translation mapping sheet, map the additional attributes of the Smart 3D short code, and then save the mapping sheet.

  6. If the piping component is not mapped or is missing from the Smart 3D catalog, then you can import the PDMS piping component as S3D generic piping component by setting the UseGenericPipingComponent .ini option to 1. Required additional mapping for the port data (NPD, End Preparation, Schedule Thickness, and End Standard) must be provided in the format as PARA [<index>] in the mapping file before importing. You can obtain this information in the PDMS .att file by running the macro on the PDMS software.

  • Port end connection data in PDMS defines both end preparation and pressure rating. Additional attributes map PDMS end connection data to Smart 3D end preparation and pressure rating.
