Background

If you need to add/remove fittings or make changes to the parameters of specific fittings, you can do so using the Raceway Catalog Creation tool.

Steps to Accomplish

1. Launch Bentley Raceway & Cable Management. Select a WorkSpace , WorkSet and open any drawing file.
   For example: Raceway drawing.
   
   
   
2. Select the Raceway Catalog Creation tool from the Manage ribbon tab and the Project Setup ribbon group.
   
   
   
3. Select the General Settings tab and select Edit in the Edit Mode.
   
   
   
4. Select the system you want to edit from the Select system pick list.
   For example, to Cable Tray and Select catalog to OBO Cable Tray MKS 60.
   
   
   
5. You can use the right click menu to select different options as shown below:
   
   Note: The deleted size will no longer be available for raceway routing. Be careful if the dataset was used in multiple projects, and this size was used before in different projects, because it will no longer appear in the BOQ reports.
   
   
6. You can add or remove different fittings of the raceway system from the Fittings Tab. Click on the Fittings tab, select a fitting from the Selected fittings area to remove, for example, Custom Reducing/Expanding Tee and press << button.
   
   Note: The deleted Fitting will no longer be available in raceway routing. Be careful if the dataset was used in multiple projects, and this fitting was used before in different projects, because it will no longer appear in the BOQ reports.
   
   
7. You can select any selected fitting to change its parameter. Select Straight 3 m, and then select Cap Style from the Select Parameter pick list.
   
   
   
8. Change the parameter Cap Style from 0 to 1 for Straight 3 m.
   
   
   
9. Press OK to save the changes and click OK to the message box that appears.
   
   
   
10. You can route the edited raceway system.
    Select Raceway Router from the Raceway ribbon tab.
    
    
    
11. Select the modified System Cable Tray and OBO Cable Tray MKS 60.
