The PDS (Plant Design System) interface allows you to import P&ID components (for example, drawings, tags, and so forth) into your database from a PDS database.

You import the P&ID data first by connecting to the appropriate PDS database from which the Import Utility will import the drawing data. There are two PDS databases / schemas from which you need to import data:

Project Control Database

This database contains the unit data and it has the same functions as the Smart Instrumentation Administration data.

P&ID Source Database

This database contains the actual P&ID drawing data.

After you connect to the PDS database you select the source unit and source P&ID. With the source data selected, you can perform the import setup process and import the selected P&ID data.
