Partial GRAFCETs
Partial GRAFCETs can be used to separate a GRAFCET into different hierarchy levels. This function is most often used for enclosing steps and compulsory commands. The name of a partial GRAFCET is always preceded by a “G”.
In order to determine partial GRAFCETs in FluidSIM, the partial GRAFCET frame has to be placed over the relevant GRAFCET part and you have to assign a name in the properties dialogue. The preceding “G” is not part of the name that you have to enter; it is added automatically by FluidSIM and shown at the bottom left of the partial GRAFCET frame. You can alter the size of the partial GRAFCET frame by dragging its edges with the mouse (see example: Grafcet/Grafcet11.ct). It is important that all the elements of the partial GRAFCET are located entirely within the relevant frame and that there are no “foreign” elements overlapping the frame.
