Creating Floor Plans, Elevation Views, and
Introduction
This section illustrates how to use the GE wizards described earlier to create animated displays of the facility floor plan, switchgear elevations, and system one- line diagrams. These examples are typical, but are not intended to display the limits of creative system design.
Elevation Views
Elevation views of switchgear and switchboards are typically created first, because miniature bitmaps of the elevations can be conveniently placed in floor plans as navigation items.
To build an elevation view, place GE Elevation and Small Faceplate wizards into the window, as follows:
1.Place the appropriate cabinet.
2.Place panels onto the cabinet.
3.Add nameplates, louvers, handles, and fasteners to create the desired level of detail.
4.Place GE Small Faceplate wizards representing the components installed in the equipment on top of the elevation wizards, as shown in the figure on the following page.
5.Configure each of the Small Faceplate wizards to open a window containing an appropriate Large Faceplate or Tabular Data Screen for the device.
