Details on Configuration - Planning

Information about the Planning tab in the LINEAR Configuration.

Configure any presettings for Radiator display, Radiator labeling and for Connections of objects to pipes here.

All presettings you make here also apply to radiators which are drawn in from the program LINEAR Building and labeledLINEAR Solutions.

You are here:

Radiator display

Filling color

Select the radiator color here if you want them to be displayed filled.

Fill radiators

Specifies whether the radiators be filled with the Filling color. The setting applies only to radiators that you insert after selecting this option and not retroactively to radiators that have already been drawn.

Uniform size in pipe run scheme

Displays all radiators in the pipe run scheme uniformly, regardless of their actual size.

Draw thermostatic valve/heating pump

Specifies whether a thermostatic valve or, in the case of pipe networks with decentralized heating pumps, a heating pump should be drawn in. If you would like to insert your own valve, you can select the appropriate dwg file using the button .

Label block

Use the button to select the label to be used for labeling the radiators.

If the radiator was already labeled in the drawing, the previously used label block is used again. This label block may differ from the settings in the configuration. This allows you to label the radiators uniformly even in older drawings without having to configure the block beforehand.

Manufacturer name in label

If you uncheck the checkbox, the manufacturer name will not be displayed in the label, even if it is included in the label block.

Rigid connections

Specifies whether all pipe media are to be queried during the Connect command or only the currently selected medium.

Symbols for decentralized heating pump

Drawing of heating pumps is possible only in combination with certain data sets for LINEAR Analysis Heating. The decentralized pumps must first be assigned to the radiators in the calculation program and the radiators then updated so that the desired symbols are also drawn. The button allows you to select the appropriate dwg files.
