To create a new valve gate controller in the database

You can create a new valve gate controller and save it in a valve gate controller database. Valve gate controllers stored in the database can then be selected for use in different studies. If you send your study file to someone else to view, you must also share your valve gate controller database. The valve gate controller will not be saved with the study, unless you create it in the study.

  1. Click (Tools tab > Databases panel > New).
  2. Select Process Conditions from the Category drop-down menu.
  3. Select Valve gate controller from the Property type list, then click OK.
  4. There are several ways you can now create a new valve gate controller.
    • Click New, or...

    • If you have previously created an individual valve gate controller, you can select it, click Duplicate, edit it and save it under a new name.
  5. Save your valve gate controller with a unique name, then click OK.
  6. You can now edit the valve gate controller to meet your needs.
Attention: Once you have created a valve gate controller database, you can then add subsequent valve gate controllers to it, by clicking (Tools tab > Databases panel > Edit), selecting it from your list of personal databases, and following the options above.
