那一刻Introduction
Catview is a freeware PDMS application for building and maintaining piping specifications. It is designed to be largely independent of catalogue naming conventions, but requires some form of catalogue organisation for it to work.
The principle features of Catview are as follows:
•Catalogue Listing and Browsing
Display a list of component types using the category description attribute.
Sort the catalogue by generic type and standard.
Display data sheets showing catalogue items and their parameters.
Search the catalogue for specific words or phras
•Specification Building using the Browsing functionality
Create new piping specifications
Build components into Specifications using the browr to lect appropriate component types.
Add a list of items using size ranges.
Ignore non-preferred sizes using an exclusion list.
•Specification Editing
Display detailed list of Specification components sorted by Component Type.
Edit component details such as Name, Stype, Material, Component Reference, Bolt
Reference and Description.
Add wall thickness details.
•Specification Reporting
Automatic Spec Summaries
Pegs Specification Transfer
•Catalogue Documentation
Produce Catalogue datasheets via Daft

Follow the instructions from the install shield program
NOTE: The default directory for installing Catview is C:\CADCENTRE\Catview11.3 If you choo to install the application somewhere el, you will need to edit the evars.bat file inside the Catview directory to reflect the new location.
To do this, the line “t catview=c:\cadcentre\catview11.3” will need to be changed to point to the correct directory
To add Catview to the PDMS applications.
Edit the standard evars.bat file in your PDMS directory to add a line to call the catview evars.bat file.
Assuming you have a standard PDMS11.3 installation, the following line should be
inrted at the end of the evars.bat file:
call C:\cadcentre\catview11.3\evars.bat
Starting Catview
To try Catview, start PDMS and enter the Cadcentre MAS project in Paragon.
When installed, Catview should be accessible from the main menu under the Utilities>Catview menu. This is shown below:
This loads the Catview main menu as shown below:
From here, all of the functions of Catview can be accesd.
Catview Defaults
Catview needs to be able to locate certain data within the current catalogue to enable the browsing and spec generation functions to work. The identities of what needs to be scanned in PDMS are contained in a defaults file contained in your PDMSDFLTS arch path.
The can be changed by accessing the Modify>Defaults menu.
This form controls where to look and what to look for in the databa.
Defaults Filename
This is the name of the defaults file currently loaded. It is possible to u alternative files, but the file loaded on Catview initialisation is always %PDMSDFLTS%/CATVIEW-DFLTS. Loading and saving defaults files is done using the File menu at the top of the form.绵羊肉
The Piping Catalogues field is the name or names of catalogues to be scanned when looking for component categories. If left blank, the whole MDB will be arched.
The Material Text Storage field lists the name or names of items containing material descriptions. If left blank, the whole MDB will be scanned for material texts.
The Detail Text Category field is slightly different, becau it is the name of a category or ction in which new detail texts can be created if required. This must exist and the ur must have write access to this area.
