    OpenPlant Configuration Variables

    Applies To 
    Product(s): OpenPlant Modeler
    Version(s): 08.11.09.XXX (SS5) | 08.11.11.XX (SS6)
    Environment:  Windows 7/8.1/10 (64 bit)
    Area:  Settings\Attributes

    Original Author:  Bentley Product Advantage Group

    Background

    OpenPlant Modeler configuration variable list for the user to use it inside the working project to allow them to customize it as per requirement. Check various lists of use. This can be used at various stage of  work. Some variable examples can be found in existing wiki articles which can also be searched using the keywords of this configuration. 

    OpenPlant Configuration variable

    Below is a list of available configuration variables which control various OpenPlant functions and procedures.

    Autofitting

    Config Variable

    Value

    Definition

    OPM_SUPPORTED_MIN_ANGLE

    1

    Defines the min angle for placement of pipe bends and trimmed elbows

    OPM_SUPPORTED_ANGLES

    0,45,60,90

    List of angles supported for component placement in autofitting

    OPM_SUPPORTED_ANGLE_TOLERANCE

    2.5

    Tolerance for exactly matching the bend angles

    OPM_MISALIGNMENT_ALLOWANCE

    10

    The OPM_MISALIGNMENT_ALLOWANCE variable is an angular tolerance value for allowing the AutoFitting routine to dynamically place a rigid fitting at a non-exact angle when the user-interface toggle Allow Misaligned Fittings is ON.  This toggle is useful for a dynamically placed sloped pipeline to place rigid, though slightly misaligned, branch fittings and bends.  The angular value is applied (+/-) to both sides of the dynamically misaligned connection.

    OPM_AUTOFITTING_TRIM_STOCK_ANGLES

    90;45

    Default elbow angle types for trimmed elbows supported in AutoFitting

    OPM_AUTOFITTING_ELBOW_TYPES

    LongRadius;
    ShortRadius;
    3R

    List of elbow types supported by Auto fitting

    OPM_HVAC_AUTOFITTING_GENERICCOMPONENT

    1

    To place generic/custom component if we dont find that component in spec


    Component Placement

    Config Variable

    Value

    Definition

    OPM_MIN_ANGLE_FOR_MITERED_ELBOWS

    30

    Default Min angle limit for mitered elbows

    OPM_MAX_ANGLE_FOR_MITERED_ELBOWS

    90

    Default Max angle limit for mitered elbows

    OPM_REPLACE_BEND_KEEP_BEND_RADIUS

    1

    When value set to 1, this variable will preserve the pipe bend radius or pipe bend radius factor on existing bend components during the Change Size/Change Spec function.

    OPM_QUICK_REPLACE

    1

    Enables to disables the appearance of the replace component option on the right click menu. A value of 0 means no menu pick. 1 means to show the menu pick

    OPM_HOOKUP_TOOL_ANGLES_FILE

    ${OPM_USER}/HookupAngles.xml

    hookup tool angle xml location

    OPM_HEAL_ON_DELETE

    1

    Enable or disable the pipe healing on component deletion

    OPM_HEAL_MAX_DELETED

    30

    Max no. of component deletion to invoke the pipe healing

    OPM_GEN_BRANCH_MIN_ANGLE_DIFF

    45

    Min allowable angle between Main/Run and Branch ot avoid the overlapping cylinders

    OPM_ATTRIBUTESTOCHECK

    NOMINAL_DIAMETER

    List of mandatory properties that should be matched between the mating components


    Connectivity

    Config Variable

    Value

    Description

    OPM_USE_ATTRIBUTESTOCHECK_VAR_FOR_REPLACEMENT

    0

    Is used by replace command to refine replacement list; if the variable value is set to 1, replace command will use all properties defined by OPM_ATTRIBUTESTOCHECK and End Preperation property to filter out components.

    OPM_TRAY_OPTIONAL_ATTRIBUTESTOCHECK

    SPECIFICATION

    list of optional properties that should be matched between mating components

    OPM_TRAY_ATTRIBUTESTOCHECK

    NOMINAL_WIDTH;NOMINAL_HEIGHT

    List of mandatory properties that should be matched between the mating components

    OPM_QUERY_BOLTS_WITH_IGNORE_LENGTH

    0

    Ignore Bolt Length for getting spec records

    OPM_AUTO_BOLT_SELECTION

    1

    Suppresses the Spec Selection dialog and selects bolt with a length closest to the defined minimum length.

    OPM_OPTIONAL_ATTRIBUTESTOCHECK

    SPECIFICATION

    list of optional properties that should be matched between mating components

    OPM_OPENEND_SEARCH_FACTOR

    0.5

    is factor multiplied to Nominal Diameter to search for open ports near a given port in connectivity checker.

    OPM_MATCH_PROPERTY_MAP_RATING

    CL150;CL125|CL250;CL300|PN25;

    PN40|PN10;PN16

    OPM_MATCH_PROPERTY_MAP_FACING

    C;D|E;F

    Pair of facing values are compatible with each other

    OPM_FLANGE_JOINT_TOLERANCE

    0.25
