PRODUCT DATA SHEET Drag & Drop Graphical Interface By combining an intuitive drag & drop graphical interface with a fully integrated relational database, users can efficiently manage all project control system data. Bentley Instrumentation & Wiring utilizes an independent graphics engine to generate drawings in a DGN, DWG or DXF format and the built-in reporting engine quickly generates instrument, cable, termination, I/O, motor and other essential project specific reports. Developed by experienced instrumentation engineers, Bentley Instrumentation & Wiring is the ideal tool for EPC I&C engineers and designers as well as Owner Operators. Fast, Accurate Data Entry The standard interface of I&W is user-friendly, with menudriven, context sensitive online help features. SQL based views allow users to create pick lists for any cell in a view reducing data entry errors and ensuring consistency. The filter, sort, find & replace commands provide quick access to project data, while the property sheet allows users to quickly update multiple records. Intuitive Connection Interface The Layout Designer interface provides an intuitive drag, drop and right-click interface for modelling all your project cable and wiring connections. Components such as instruments, motors, cables and panels can be dragged onto layouts and the connections modelled via right click menu options. A layout may show all instruments in a project or the layouts may be broken down into individual loops, areas or processes. The same components may also be displayed on multiple layouts. Layouts can be printed to pdf to create simple block cable diagrams if desired. Multiple Reporting Capabilities Bentley Instrumentation & Wiring comes with many predefined reports. These include; instrument lists, cables schedules, panel lists, termination and wiring list, motor and I/O lists. All the reports within Instrumentation & Wiring are generated using the built-in Microsoft Access reporting engine. Users can easily edit these to meet project format requirements, or simply add new reports. Multiple Drawing Types & File Formats Bentley I&W’s built-in drawing engine allows users to generate drawings for instrument loops, fieldbus segments, panels and motors. These drawings can be automatic “quick” connection drawings in PDF format, or C.A.D files utilizing the AutoGen, Composite and Template drawing creation functionality within I&W. All the C.A.D. drawings can be produced in DGN, DWG or DXF file formats. No AutoCAD license is required to generate DWG drawings. Building from Standards Libraries Users can store re-occurring designs as project standards. A common loop configuration that is repeated many times on a project can be designed and then saved as a project standard. The use of project standards applies to loops, segments, motors and panels as well as individual terminal strips and devices. Standards are project specific, but users can select a standard created in a different project. Hook Ups Process and pneumatic instrument hook ups – or installation details – can be created from Bentley I&W via the Hook Ups module. Hook Up sheets are created in Microsoft Excel format and from these bills of materials for installation can be created for individual or multiple hook ups. The Hook Ups module is now an integral part of I&W and not a separate licensed module. Datasheets and Specification Sheets Datasheets and specification sheets can be created from I&W by the integration with the Bentley Datasheets module. Datasheets are created in Microsoft Excel format and synchronisation with the project database is automatic to ensure data consistency.
