Introduction

This tab page on the Plant Model Access Window has three sections:

1. Allows the user to input project related information.
   • User can add various information that will describe the project, this includes two external links.
   • If a Hyperlink has been entered for "DescLink" (project description link), then user can jump to this link by (1) View - Project Description OR (2) Graphics Page's Right Click context menu - Project Description
   • For SysCAD distributed projects, the project descriptions are available at Example Projects.
2. Allows a number of user defined Global parameters that can be used in Custom Calculations, PGM OR Model Procedures (MP).
   • When the user wishes to access these tags, for example the first value, the tag is: PlantModel.PUV1.Value OR PM.PUV(1). (See Plant Model Class)
3. Allows adding a Tag List to set before initialisation
   • This works the same as the Set Tag List except that the tags are set at the very start of the initialisation process. This can be used to set tags which need to be set prior to other logic which occurs during initialisation. Some examples are page activations, controllers on/off and variables which are referenced in the calculations/logic which is part of the Initialise_Prestart() subroutine in a PGM.

Tag (Long/Short)	Input / Calc	Description / Calculated Variables / Options
Project Information (The Project Information section is only available in SysCAD 138 or later)
Project ...
Name	Text	User Input Field. For Example: Nickel Copper Demo Project.
Location	Text	User Input Field. For Example: Local Drive - SysCAD\Examples
Version	Text	User Input Field. For Example: Project updated to SysCAD 138.
Date	Date	User Input Field. For Example: 15 April 2019.
Status	Text	User Input Field. For Example: Solved to sample data.
Manager	Text	User Input Field. For Example: KWA Team Manager.
Engineer	Text	User Input Field. For Example: KWA Team Engineer.
Other	Text	User Input Field. For Example: Example project for distribution with install.
Link	Hyperlink	Document link. This can be a hyperlink to a web address or a full-path to a file. If a hyperlink is entered, user can click on the icon to access the file. For Example: C:\SysCAD93\Examples\40 Nickel\Demo Nickel Copper Project.spf\Reports\Project Criteria Report.xlsx
DescLink	Hyperlink	Document link for project description. This can be a hyperlink to a web address or a full-path to a file. If a hyperlink is entered, user can click on the icon to access the file. This field is tied-to the menu command View - Project Description OR Graphics Page's Right Click context menu - Project Description. If a web address is entered, for example: https://help.syscad.net/Nickel_Copper_Project, then the "Project Description" menu command will open the web page. If a full path is entered for a file with a known file type, for example, "C:\SysCAD138\Examples\40 Nickel\Demo Nickel Copper Project.spf\Reports\Project Criteria Report.xlsx", then the "Project Description" menu command will open the file in MS Excel. (Note this may depend on file association and software installed on the user's computer.)
Description/Desc	Text	User Input Field. For Example: The "Link" document contains the model criteria. The "DescLink" document contains a brief description of the project.
