Routing Library Manager

The Routing Library Manager contains the following items:
Routing Component Wizard
Prepares a part so you can use it in Routing. You can use an existing part or create a new part and use the wizard to prepare it.
Cable Wire Library Wizard
Lets you create a new library, import a library in Excel format, or open an existing library. A cable wire library is an .xml file that defines the attributes of the cables and wires, such as size, color, and description. You need a cable wire library if you want to assign electrical attributes to the route.
Component Library Wizard
Lets you create a new library, import a library in Excel format, or open an existing library. A component library is an .xml file that defines the attributes of electrical components, such as size, color, and description.
Covering Library Wizard
Lets you create a new library, import a library in Excel format, or open an existing library. A covering library is an .xml file that defines the attributes of the coverings, such as thickness, packing, and shape.
Tag Scheme Manager
Lets you define tag schemes for pipes, equipment, or other fittings to specify the sequence in which subtags appear within a tag.
Routing File Locations and Settings
Sets file locations and options for Routing entities.
Piping and Tubing Database
Shows a database of part configurations, not actual parts that are loaded in the Routing library. It is a representative picture of parts in the Routing library for piping and tubing only (not electrical or conduits).
