The Schedule Viewer in an Interactive Study displays the ACP Schedules, and allows you to work with the schedule data:
Conduit Schedule - Specifies the Run ID, Source, Destination, and System for each raceway. It also references the Feeder ID in the Feeder Schedule.
Raceways may be scheduled with Source and/or Destination elements that aren’t placed in the Revit project yet. The Schedule Run tool may be used to place these elements in the Revit project from the Conduit Schedule.
Feeder Schedule - Lists conduit size and number of parallel runs for each Feeder ID.
This article covers the controls in the Schedule Viewer, and the columns in the Conduit and Feeder Schedules.
Schedule Controls
The Schedule Controls in the Schedule Viewer allow you to easily work with the schedule data.
Navigation
Schedule Toggle - Switch to the Conduit or Feeder schedule in the study.
Status Bar - Displays the number of raceways in the schedule, as well as the number or warnings or errors.
Manage data
Import
- Import schedule data either from a previously used schedule in the ACP project or a CSV/XLSX file.Export
- Export the schedule data into a CSV file.Add new row - Adds a new row to the bottom of the schedule.
When adding a new row, double-clicking under columns with values which may be repeated shows a dropdown options of possible values.
Search
- Searches through the entire schedule for any entry that matches the entered text.The Search function in the Note column only looks under the column.
Select row(s)
- Allows user to select one, multiple, or all Run IDs/Rows within the schedule. Once selected, users can do the following:Duplicate Runs: Creates a duplicate of the selected row(s).
Duplicated rows copy the original Run ID or Feeder ID and automatically increment the last character by one step. For example, RUN-1 becomes RUN-2, or FEEDER-A becomes FEEDER-B.
Delete Runs: Delete the selected row(s) from the schedule.
Modify a field: Update any of the data of a selected row(s).
When multiple rows are selected in a schedule, any modification in one of the selected fields will automatically apply to all selected rows.
Move row
- Click and drag the row to a different location within the table.Sort
- Sorts all rows in the table by either the ascending or descending order of the column’s values. .png)
Filter
- Enables users to filter the table view based specific rows in the list based on selected values in the column. .png)
Integration
Link to element
- Appears when hovering over a Source or Destination in the Conduit Schedule. When clicked, the active window switches to the linked Revit project with the corresponding element highlighted.
Conduit Schedule
Column | Description | Additional Notes |
|---|---|---|
Route | Displays the routing status of each raceway in the Conduit Schedule. |
|
Run ID | Unique identifier for each row representing a specific source and destination between which conduit should be run. | Any unique combination of letters, numbers, and symbols. ACP will auto-step the next row based on the last digit of the previous Run ID.
|
Source | The name of Electrical Equipment (Panel Name) or Electrical Fixture (ACP_E_Fixture ID) where the conduit originates. | A dropdown list populated by Electrical Equipment and Electrical Fixture elements in the active Revit project. |
Destination | The name of the Electrical Equipment (Panel Name) or Electrical Fixture (ACP_E_Fixture ID) where the conduit terminates. | A dropdown list populated by Electrical Equipment and Electrical Fixture elements in the active Revit project. |
System | Identifies the power system associated with the conduit | Any combination of letters, numbers, and symbols. This input may also be used in the ACP process to assign a system scope to Design Rules. |
Feeder ID | References the Feeder ID from the Feeder Schedule | The Feeder Schedule must be correctly populated prior to assigning the Feeder ID, as this column is a dropdown list populated by the Feeder ID column in the Feeder Schedule. |
Note | A field for capturing additional information related to the Run ID. | This can include grouping information or study-specific context. This field may be left blank. |
Active | Determines if a Run ID should be routed within the current ACP study. |
|
Feeder Schedule
Column | Description | Additional Notes |
|---|---|---|
Feeder ID | A unique identifier for each set of feeders to be installed. | Any unique combination of letters, numbers, and symbols. |
Parallel Runs | The number of conduits that will run in parallel between the source and the destination to carry the required feeders. | Any positive integer. |
Conduit Size | The nominal diameter of the conduit(s) used to carry the set of feeders from the source to the destination. | Choose from the pre-programmed drop-down list of ACP-supported conduit sizes. |
