Drawing Errors

 

Objects are placed outside the drawing area.

At least one object has been placed outside the drawing area. After acknowledging the dialog box the respective objects are shown selected. Either change the papersize or place the selected objects inside the marked drawing area.

 

 

Open connections.

At least one component has an open hydraulic connection. After acknowledging the dialog box, all components with an open hydraulic connection are selected. If the simulation should be started, FluidSIM automatically fits blind plugs to open connections.

 

 

Incompatible connections are superimposed.

When two connections are superimposed, FluidSIM automatically connects them. When these two connections do not go together, a warning message is given.

 

 

Superimposed lines.

At least two lines are superimposed. After acknowledging the dialog box, these line segments are selected.

 

 

Lines through components.

At least one line is passing through a component. After acknowledging the dialog box, the appropriate components are selected.

 

 

Lines through connections.

At least one line is crossing through a connection to which the line is not connected. After acknowledging the dialog box, these lines are selected.

 

 

Superimposed components.

At least two components are superimposed. After acknowledging the dialog box, these components are selected.

 

 

Duplicate or incompatible labels.

A label has been used incorrectly. After acknowledging the dialog box, the appropriate components are selected. To set the circuit diagram into simulation, other labels will have to be chosen.

 

 

There are components with the same description.

The same description has been assigned to more than one component. After acknowledging the dialog box the respective components appear selected. Modify the component description(s), or, as the case may be, rearrange them such that their assignment becomes definite.

 

 

There have been warnings. Start simulation anyway?

This prompt appears when any of the above drawing errors can be found in the circuit diagram. If the simulation is started while connections are open, FluidSIM will supply these open connections with blind plugs.

 

 

There is no cylinder close to the distance rule.

A distance rule can only be given a label when it is assigned to a cylinder. Move the distance rule near a cylinder, so that it snaps into place. Now a label can be entered by double clicking the measuring scale.

 

 

No superficial errors detected.

The circuit diagram does not contain any of the following drawing errors:

  • objects that are placed outside the drawing area
  • hydraulic connections that are open
  • connection that are superimposed and do not go together
  • lines that are superimposed
  • lines that pass through components
  • lines that cross through connections to which they are not connected
  • components that are superimposed
  • labels that do not go together
  • components that have the same description
