  • Hi Yehia,

    MEP system required system ID generated for all source [Ex. AHU ] and terminator device [Ex. Diffusers], once it is setup for your HVAC system , it will be exported as IFCSystem and populate COBIe system tab as shown below.

    To generate system ID there is a tool called 'System ID' in Route Assist ribbon group.

  • Thank yo Sandeep, However i am using AECOsim Building Designer V8i. The tool is different. 

  • Hi Yehia,

    Thanks for your response, although even tool is different I believe the functionality is same for V8i and CONNECT. I hope you are able to achieve the desired result.

    I would encourage you to shift on OpenBuildings Designer CONNECT Edition to take the benefit of Comprehensive modeling environment of our Building product.

    Thanks,

    Best Regards,
