To map a new P&ID object to a Plant 3D object

When a new P&ID object class is introduced during a project, you can map it to a corresponding Plant 3D object class.

1. In the Project Setup tree view, expand Plant 3D DWG Settings. Click P&ID Object Mapping.
2. On the P&ID Object Mapping pane, under P&ID Classes, expand the tree and click the new P&ID object (for example: New_Valve).
3. Under Plant 3D Classes, click Add.
   
4. In the Select Plant 3D Class Mapping dialog box, do the following:
   • Under Plant 3D Classes, expand the tree. Click a class (for example: Valve).
   • Select the Map To All Subtypes of This Class check box, or, under Map To One or More Specific Subtypes of This Class, select or clear appropriate check boxes.
   • Click OK.
   
5. On the P&ID Object Mapping pane, under Plant 3D Classes, in the Property Mapping table, do the following:
   • In the Plant 3D Property column, in the drop-down list, click appropriate properties to correspond with properties in the P&ID Property column (for example: match Manufacturer toManufacturer).
   • To set the validation process to check the property mappings for the mapped item, select the check box labeled Check This Item During 3D To PID Validation.

     To set the validation process to ignore the property mappings of this item, clear the check box.

   • Click OK.
