Monitoring Point Schematics
Flows should increase the further downstream you progress in a
sewer system. Flow balancing is the process of comparing the
flows from a downstream monitoring point to the sum of the flows
from all upstream monitoring points from which it receives flow.
Profile allows you to create schematics to specify all of the
upstream monitoring points associated with a downstream
monitoring point. The sum of the flows from the upstream
monitoring points, called the composite, should equal the flow from
the specified downstream monitoring point. Create schematics and
save them to the database using the Profile main screen. Use the
schematics in the Balance Reporter tool to perform flow
balancing.
Note: Remember to generate the QFinal data entity for
each monitoring point you want to associate with a
schematic prior to creating the schematic.
Use the Profile main screen to develop a schematic for each
monitoring point. After the schematic is created on the Profile
main screen, it becomes available each time you use the Balance
Reporter. Perform the following steps to create a schematic:
1. From the Profile main screen, select the monitoring point for
which you want to develop the schematic.
2. Select the Edit > Properties option to display the monitoring
point Properties dialog.
