6.5 Creating a project

Starting point for the adjustment of all types of field devices is

the partial or complete mapping of the instrument network in a

PACTware™project. For this purpose, PACTware™ provides

an area, the instrument catalogue, in which all installed DTMs

are displayed. Typically the DTMs have the same name as the

instruments that are adjusted by them. In addition,

PACTware™ provides a second area, the project window, in

which the instrument network is mapped.
The easiest and quickest way to generate an instrument

network in the project window of PACTware™ is via the VEGA

projectassistantt. It is available as manufacturer-specific

extension module in all VEGA DTM Installation package and

extends hence automatically the functions of PACTware™ 3.0.

The automatic generation of projects by means of the VEGA

projectassistantt, however, is only possible for instrument

networks in which only VEGA instruments are used.
You open the VEGA project assistant from the PACTware™

menu board under "Project - VEGA project assistant". The

window "VEGA project assistant" opens and you just have to

select the requested interface for automatic generation of the

project. Further information on the VEGA project assistant is

available in the corresponding online help. The online help can

be opened directly in the window "VEGA projekt assistant".

To create a project in the project window, paste in the DTMs

from the instrument catalogue - one DTM for each actually

used instrument. The entry HOST-PC is the starting point for

pasting in the DTMs. The requested DTM can be brought over
