The information that you define is stored with the process line. In Tag the process lines (on page 39), you will place tags on these process lines.



To assign a specification to any CADWorx component, click the CADWorxP&ID tab and then click Spec Assign in the Size_Spec panel. For more information, see "Spec Assign" in the CADWorx P&ID User's Guide. You can also use the CADWorx P&ID Setup dialog box to set the specification to 150-lb so that all process lines drawn are assigned the specification automatically at placement.



The line number system is explained in the Advanced Tutorial section. Using a line numbering system requires that you only enter the size and specification of the process line to automatically generate the tag value.

Place a nozzle If you want the nozzles you place to acquire the size of the process line, you must first set the size of the process line. Otherwise, you must edit each connection manually. 1. Click the CADWorxP&ID tab and then click Nozzles type ICONNOZZLE, and press ENTER.
