© 2012 Autodesk Support Your Design Process with the AutoCAD Map3D Interface to WindMil Using MultiSpeak Frank Misurec Stephen Brockwell Brockwell IT Consulting

© 2012 Autodesk Class Summary In this class, you will learn how to enhance your design process by exporting designs created in AutoCAD Map3D software into WindMil circuit modeling software using the MultiSpeak interface. We will explain how to use the MultiSpeak export capability in AutoCAD Map 3D for both enterprise and file-based industry models. You will learn how to export AutoCAD Map3D electric industry models and how to configure the export to support customer-specific industry models.

© 2012 Autodesk Learning Objectives At the end of this class, you will be able to:  Explain the key concepts of the MultiSpeak standard  Export a feeder(s) from Map3D  Import a feeder(s) into WindMil  Configure your Industry Model to export your data  Create a MultiSpeak configuration file for your Industry Model  Install the MultiSpeak plug-in for Map3D

© 2012 Autodesk MultiSpeak Map3D User Interface  Is a Map3D Document Plug In Invoke Multispeak

© 2012 Autodesk MultiSpeak Map3D User Interface  Configuration File  Substation  Feeder  Output File  Log File

© 2012 Autodesk MultiSpeak Map3D Interface – Configuration File  Configuration File – XML  Defines Industry model to MultiSpeak object mappings  Defines Substation to Feeder mappings  MultiSpeakAutodeskConfig.xsd

© 2012 Autodesk MultiSpeak Map3D Interface – Substation  Choose Substation  Configuration file element msFeederList

© 2012 Autodesk MultiSpeak Map3D Interface – Feeder  Feeder(s) available to Export  Configuration file element msFeederList

© 2012 Autodesk MultiSpeak Map3D Interface – Export  Select Feeder(s)  Specify Output and Log File  Export

© 2012 Autodesk MultiSpeak Map3D Interface – Validation  Incorrect MultiSpeak Element Name  Incorrect Industry Model Table/Column Name

© 2012 Autodesk MultiSpeak Map3D Interface – Import to WindMil 1. WindMil File->Import 2. Choose Version

© 2012 Autodesk MultiSpeak Map3D Interface – Import to WindMil  Choose options  Can use sectionId to define name  Complete

© 2012 Autodesk MultiSpeak ® Interface Configuration

© 2012 Autodesk MultiSpeak ® Interface Configuration  Configuration File – XML  Defines Substation to Feeder mappings  Defines Industry model to MultiSpeak object mappings  MultiSpeakAutodeskConfig.xsd

© 2012 Autodesk MultiSpeak ® Interface Configuration  msConnectivity  msFeederList  msPartnerList  msElementList

© 2012 Autodesk Configuration - Connectivity  msConnectivity – utility model connectivity  Name – table/view name  fromId – Id of from section  fromClassId – Class Id of from section  toId – Id of to section  toClassId – Class Id of to section  Overrideable at the Element level

© 2012 Autodesk Configuration – Feeder List  msFeederList – required for user interface  Name – table/view name  Substation – Column identifies substation  Feeder  Column identifies feeder  msElement default feeder column

© 2012 Autodesk Configuration – Partner List  msPartnerList – Industry Model classes that are switches  Name – class name

© 2012 Autodesk Configuration – msElementList  msElementList – list of MultiSpeak data objects (msElement)  msElement – Defines mapping to MultiSpeak data object

© 2012 Autodesk Configuration – msElement  msElement  Attributes  msGeometryProperty  msChildElement  msElementList

© 2012 Autodesk Configuration – msElement Attributes  msElement Attributes  name – MultiSpeak Data Object name  source – Industry Model table/view  requiresParent – child element  parseBy – auto generate child list  feeder – overrides msFeederList  sectionId – use to define object name  parentSection – overrides msConectivity

© 2012 Autodesk Configuration – msElement Properties  msGeometryProperty – Geometry Mapping  name – MultiSpeak geometry  source – Industry Model geometry

© 2012 Autodesk Configuration – msElement Properties  msProperty – MultiSpeak/IM property mappings  name – MultiSpeak property name  source – Industry Model column name  autoGenerate – Generate value of “ParseBy”  Value – Sets property to a literal

© 2012 Autodesk Configuration – msElement Properties  msProperty – MultiSpeak/IM property mappings  name – MultiSpeak property name  source – Industry Model column name  autoGenerate – Generate value of “ParseBy”  Value – Sets property to a literal  Source/Value must match MultiSpeak type  Ie. phaseCode must be: A, B, C, AB, AC, BC, ABC

© 2012 Autodesk Configuration – msElement ChildElements  Child Elements  Explicit – msChildElement  Implicit - msElementList

© 2012 Autodesk Configuration – msElement msChildElement  msChildElement  name – MultiSpeak property  parentKey – key column in current element  childKey – key column in child  childName - child element name

© 2012 Autodesk Configuration – msElement msElementList  msElementList  name – MultiSpeak property

© 2012 Autodesk MultiSpeak ® Industry Model Configuration

© 2012 Autodesk Industry Model Configuration – Why?  MultiSpeak Data object properties may not be contained in one Industry Model Feature Class  Industry Model Domain tables  Industry Model Property transformations may be required

© 2012 Autodesk Industry Model Configuration – How?  Create a view to represent MultiSpeak data object  msElement “source” attribute is table/view name  Examples  V_MSPK_CIRCUIT_LIST – properties required from multiple tables  V_MSPK_EL_SWITCH  Get phase values from domain table  Perform data transformation on “state” to map to MultiSpeak values
