Toolbar

System Preselection Section


Button	Description
Component in Master Tables	Opens the U-Value calculation of the system components in the master tables.
U-Value Exchange	Opens the Switch U-Value dialog, in which you can replace U-values within the respective current structural level and within the module.
Optimize	Executes an optimization of the dimensioning. This is useful if parameters of the dimensioning have been changed and a complete redimensioning is not desired. Note: An exception is the optimization of the number of circuits: It corresponds to a redimensioning of the panel system in the room. The following variants are available for selection: Differential Temperature Optimizing (DT) Optimizes the dimensioning by adjusting the differential temperature. The laying spacing and the defined circuits remain unchanged. Laying Spacing Optimization (LS + DT) Optimizes the dimensioning by adjusting the laying spacing and differential temperature. The defined circuits remain unchanged. Circuit Quantity Optimization (CQ + LS + DT) Optimizes the dimensioning by adapting all parts of the active situation. All individual specifications are replaced if possible.
Create Labels	Opens the program liNLabel, which allows you to create and print labels for the inscription of manifolds and manifolds outlets. The prerequisite for this is that the dimensioning of the panel system has already been executed.
Additional Material	Opens a catalog for additional material selection of the manufacturer. Additional materials from manufacturers whose systems are in the preselection are shown.
Import Web Layout	Enables the import of projects from online quick dimensioning in WEBPRO format. After the import the project can be edited further.

Room View Section


Button	Description
Pipe Run View	Switches to the Pipe Run View of a circuit marked in the room table.
U-Value Exchange	Opens the Switch U-Value dialog, in which you can replace U-values within the respective current structural level and within the module.
Optimize	Executes an optimization of the dimensioning. This is useful if parameters of the dimensioning have been changed and a complete redimensioning is not desired. Note: An exception is the optimization of the number of circuits: It corresponds to a redimensioning of the panel system in the room. The following variants are available. Differential Temperature Optimizing (DT) Optimizes the dimensioning by adjusting the differential temperature. The laying spacing and the defined circuits remain unchanged. Laying Spacing Optimization (LS + DT) Optimizes the dimensioning by adjusting the laying spacing and differential temperature. The defined circuits remain unchanged. Circuit Quantity Optimization (CQ + LS + DT) Optimizes the dimensioning by adapting all parts of the active situation. All individual specifications are replaced if possible.
Draw Heating/Cooling Circuits	If a CAD connection exists, the program switches to the CAD program in order to draw heating or cooling circuits. If a CAD connection is established, the program switches to the CAD program to connect heating or cooling circuits.
Draw Manifold in CAD	If a CAD connection exists, the program switches to the CAD program to draw manifolds there.
Percentage of Areas	Opens the dialog to define the percentage of areas (dry systems) or the dialog to define the single panels or modules (module panel systems). This function is activated if a module system has been installed and the room component (floor, ceiling or wall) occupied by the module is marked in the table.
Detect Transition Material	Opens the Transition Material dialog, where you enter parameters for the installation of heating or cooling zones manually via expansion joints or can have them determined from the CAD program. The button is activated if you selected a room component (floor, ceiling or wall) in the room and if transition material is stored in the selected radiant heating and cooling system.
Design New Heating/Cooling Circuits	Opens the context menu for dimensioning new circuits, border zones, feed pipes, defining blind areas and adding new room components. As an alternative to clicking the button, you can also press F5 in a table line or click in an empty line.
