Cable routing is based on routing paths or nodes connected by straight segments. Routing conditions controlling the segregations and filling rules are assigned to every segment.
Nodes representing penetrations can be assigned rules for controlling the cable population in the penetration: penetration fitting, allowed area or number, and type of watertight blocks.
Cables can be routed automatically, semi-automatically, or manually. A cable’s weight, length, center of gravity, and cable tray population are automatically updated.
Cable trays may be modeled automatically - according to the cable tray pattern assigned to each segment or polygonal of the nodal network – or manually. Cable penetrations or transits are automatically modeled based on the information given to the penetration nodes. Online clash checking can be used.
The user can generate different types of drawings, including automatic cable route pull sheets and cable tray isometric sketches.
All cables and electrical equipment pieces placed in the diagram are automatically registered in the FORAN database and are ready to be reused in the rest of the applications. On-line, block, wiring, and lighting diagrams are some examples of the types of documents that can be created.
FORAN offers a complete report generator that includes predefined and configurable reports that can be exported into standard formats. It allows configuring, creating, viewing, and printing reports of the electrical design data.
The definition of the electrical standards and elements includes basic data tables (cable segregations, nominal cross-sections, standard tray sizes, cable materials, etc.), cable catalogs, and cable nominal sizes. Available data includes cable composition, core size, overall diameter, and other mechanical and electrical characteristics associated with each nominal cross-section, classes and components of electrical equipment, fittings and instruments, cable segregations, and cable routing rules.
To define I/O signals and each proper signal value, such as the type of signal (analog, digital or serial line), the I/O card type, the range of measurements, alarm data, etc., we need to assign a processing station and an instrument (field element) to the signal. In addition, we must choose the corresponding cable wires used for each signal to propagate. Several kinds of I/O lists can be extracted.
