Setting Up Planning Project

Process:
 

•Create a ProSig project and define the project and drawing attributes.

Requirements: -

Description:

In ProSig projects, an initial drawing is the Signalling layout plan, in which the planning data imported from the XML file is displayed and further planning activities can be performed.

Additional plan types (Cable layout plan, Signalling overview plan, ...) can be (partially) automatically derived using the ProSig project, see

Create and Synchronize Plans

The projects can also be shared using XML, see

PlanPro-Export

During the planning process, some object attributes of newly inserted objects must be assigned repeatedly, for example: the attribute ID number. In the project object, these object attributes can be predefined.

Procedure:
 

1.A Planning Project is set up using the 'Project Manager' function.

Command Line: PRS_PROJEKTMANAGER

Ribbon: ProSig EPU -> ProSig Project -> Project Manager

2.The button 'New Project' (A) is used to create a new project. The storage location for the project directory must be selected.

3.The Project attributes are then to be defined. The attributes can be entered by double-clicking with the left mouse button in the respective field.

oFor the attribute 'Name' (B), the name of the project needs to be specified.
 

oThe attribute 'Directive' (C) is automatically preset with the value '819.9002 5/2012'.

4.The created project needs to be saved by right-clicking on the project and by selecting the menu item 'Save'.
 
 

5.By right-clicking on the project and selecting the menu item 'New Drawing', a first AutoCAD drawing (generally the Signalling Layout plan) is assigned to the project.

6.The drawing attributes of the assigned DWG can be defined subsequently. The attributes can be entered by double-clicking with the left mouse button in the respective field.

oThe attributes 'Plan type' (E), 'Scale' (F) and 'Directive' (G) are automatically preset with Plan type = Signalling layout plan, Scale = 1:1000 and Directive = 819.9002 5/2012, when a new drawing is added. If necessary, they can be adjusted via the drop-down list.
 

oThe attribute 'Name' (D) needs to be filled with the name of the drawing. If the name is not entered, the name of the drawing is automatically determined when saving, depending on the plan type set, which means the name is automatically assigned to 'SLP' for the Signalling Layout plan.

7.Save the newly assigned drawing by right clicking on the drawing and selecting the menu item 'Save'.
 
 

8.Open the drawing by right-clicking on the newly assigned drawing and selecting the menu item 'Open'.
 
 

9.Open the attributes of the Project object and set the Project attributes.

Command Line: PRS_OEP

Ribbon: ProSig EPU -> Tools -> Edit Project Object

oSome project attributes are used as default values when creating new objects in the project. The requirement is that the corresponding project attribute needs to be filled and the newly created object has the corresponding object attribute. These are the following default values:

oFor the attribute 'Current ID code' (H), the unique ID code of the Signalling or operation management technology of the operating area needs to be specified for the current operation control post. If the operation control post contains several ID Code, then before inserting the corresponding SCT objects, each ID Code in the project object needs to be adjusted in order to ensure the default value in the attributes of the SCT objects.
 
The code identifies a operating station or a part of a operating station. This code should not be confused with the station number of the train number display system (Ril 819.0731). It is included in the element names of the SCT objects.
 

oThe presetting of further project attributes is performed later in the planning process, see also Defining Project attributes and Pre-Settings.
