Workflow for Creating Hook-Up Items in the Reference Explorer - Intergraph Smart Instrumentation - Help

This workflow describes the steps needed to create a hook-up item in the reference explorer.

1. In the Reference Explorer, Hook-Up Item Libraries folder, under Default Sub-Library, create a hook-up item. For more information, see Create a Hook-Up Item.

2. In the Reference Explorer, Hook-Ups Library, create a user-defined sub-library. For more information, see Create User-Defined Sub-Libraries.

3. If pipe specs are to be associated with the hook-up item, then you must first define or modify the required pipe spec. For more information, see Define/Modify Pipe Specs.

4. After defining the pipe specs, you must associate them with the user-defined sub-library created previously. For more information, see Associate Pipe Specs with Sub-Libraries.

5. Assign the hook-up item to the user-defined sub-library. For more information, see Associate Items with User-Defined Sub-Libraries.

6. Add any macros that are required. For more information, see Create a New Hook-Up Macro Definition.
