ISOGEN Files Understanding ISOGEN Files ISOGEN Files ISOGEN uses
data from two sources to produce piping Isometric drawings. The description of the pipeline comes from the Piping Design System in either a Piping Component File (PCF) or an Intermediate Data File (IDF). The user requirement on how that data is to be processed and presented comes from a set of user definable control files. This section describes the following ISOGEN operating files. 1.

ISOGEN 1) Piping Component Files (PCF’s)
PCF’s are text files containing component and routing information. They are created by the Piping Design System extracting information from the piping model and passing this as an input file to ISOGEN for the creation of an isometric. A single PCF can contain the data for a number of pipelines but generally The Piping Design System extracts piping data for single pipelines only and then the ISOGEN system will produce isometrics for one pipeline at a time. At the end of each run ISOGEN places a copy of the PCF it has processed in the isodir\projname\inputs directory. If the user has access to I-RUN these PCF’s may be processed as a batch for final issue and document control. Other users also find the PCF to be a convenient and easily understood data file describing the pipeline it represents, and even use it as a source of data to feed other programs. This latter use should, however, be adopted only after consultation with Alias Limited to ensure that future changes in file format do not invalidate the proposed use.

ISOGEN 2) Intermediate Data Files (IDF’s)
IDF’s are text files containing component and routing information. They are created by the Piping Design System extracting information from the piping model and passing this as an input file to ISOGEN for the creation of an isometric. A single IDF can contain the data for a number of pipelines but generally The Piping Design System extracts piping data for single pipelines only and then the ISOGEN system will produce isometrics for one pipeline at a time. At the end of each run ISOGEN places a copy of the IDF it has processed in the isodir\projname\inputs directory. If the user has access to I-RUN these IDF’s may be processed as a batch for final issue and document control.
Users will not normally need to see the detail in their IDF’s. However, considering the above example, an IDF for the above pipel ine is shown here for information. ♦

ISOGEN 3) The ISOGEN.FLS File
Most of the controls files available to ISOGEN are optional, so an index file called ISOGEN.FLS is used to tell ISOGEN the path and name of each of the control files which are to be used in the current run. Each of the isotype sub-directories contains its own ISOGEN.FLS to invoke the relevant control files for the particular type and style of drawing to be produced. The ISOGEN.FLS file is also used to define the path and name of various output files that ISOGEN can produce in addition to the isometric drawing file, and to declare certain optional data which can be used during execution. Each entry in the file consists of a KEYWORD followed by a PATH\FILENAME or a DATA item. eg
MESSAGE MATERIAL-CONTROL DRAWING-FRAME OPTION-SWITCHES-LONG
✎
isodir\projname\FINAL\ISOGEN.MSG isodir \projname\FINAL\DDRAWINGS\MATERIAL.CTL isodir \projname\FINAL\FINAL.DGN isodir \projname\FINAL\ALIAS.OPL
The KEYWORD and the associated data must be separated by one or more spaces. “TAB” characters are not allowed and will cause the KEYWORD to be ignored.
The “create new project” utility will copy the standard ISOGEN.FLS for each isotype into the appropriate sub-directories and include the correct path for the chosen project name in each case. If you need to add a reference to any further control or output file, it is essential that the full path and file name is included to point to where the control file is located. The ISOGEN.FLS is an ASCII text file and it can be modified using any suitable text editor such as MS Windows NOTEPAD.
ISOGEN
ALIAS
4) The Message File Every time ISOGEN runs it writes a message to a file whose name and path are specified in the ISOGEN.FLS file. These messages are only created for diagnostic purposes and as long as everything works normally these will be of no interest of no interest to the user. If ISOGEN runs but does not produce valid output, you should save a copy of the Message File together with the PCF / IDF and any output files which have been created. These will help the ISOGEN support staff diagnose the problem.
ALIAS
ISOGEN 5) Options Files. ISOGEN contains
a large number of variable features. For example:
1.
Isometric type
2.
Bill of Materials position on the isometric
3.
Dimensional units
4.
Isometric drawing size
5.
Cut pipe list - ON/OFF
6.
Line weight and symbol size etc.
These and other features are all controlled by settings made by the user and held in the Options File. Each isotype installed for a project will in fact have its own Options File containing the settings relevant for the particular style and content. Each Options File contains a total of 140 switches, many of which have several positions. A single Option Switch controls most features in numeric form, but some of the more advanced features need two. Like most other ISOGEN control files, the Options File is a text file that may be created and edited with any standard text editor but to simplify the process of making changes to settings, an Options Switch Editor is provided for use with ISOGEN . To change Option Switches simply click on the Edit button in the Project Manager. Go to the appropriate page(s) for the switches you wish to change and select the new settings. Then save the file and you are ready to use it.
The Options File Contents The Options File name is identified as file OPTION-SWITCHES-LONG in the FLS file e.g. ALIAS.OPL. Each Options File consists of a header followed by 140 lines with one Option Switch per line. Each line can include a comment, signified by a ! The 140 different options are specified in a vertical structure on a 1 line per Option Switch basis.

7) Drawing Definition File (DDF) This file is used to customise the appearance of isometrics by defining such features as: 1.
Thickness of the plotted pipeline - independently by bore
2.
The thickness and scale of all fittings - flanges, olets, valves, instruments, welds, etc.
3.
Round or square elbows and bends - controlled by bore range
4.
Set drawing Layers for all parts of the isometric - e.g.
PIPE FITTINGS MATERIAL-LIST DIMENSION-TEXT DIMENSION-LINES FRAME Colours can be set up for the layers in the MicroStation seed file to help in distinguishing the various parts of the Isometric.
Example This is the standard isometric produced without a DDF.
ISOGEN

This is the same pipeline but the following changes have been made by the inclusion of a DDF. 1.
Piping greater than 2” bore has been made thicker
2.
All the fittings and welds have been scaled up in size and drawn slightly thicker
3.
Elbows are depicted square instead of r ound
Although the drawing looks quite different it is pro duced from exactly the same PCF.

ALIAS
ISOGEN 8) The Welding Definition File (WDF)
Detailed Weld information may be shown on the isometric in a plotted Weld Table like the one shown here. The table is user definable and will often contain spaces for data to be filled in later during fabrication or erection as well as columns for data contained within the PCF. The Weld Table (sometimes known as the Weld Box) is placed in the bottom right hand corner of the plotted area of the drawing. Examples of Weld Tables can be seen in the samples included in the \SAMPLEPROJ\SAMPLEPROJECT\FINAL-WELD-BOX directory on installation.
To generate a plotted Weld Table on the isometric, you must supply relevant information in a Welding Definition File (WDF) which must be referenced in t he ISOGEN.FLS against the keyword WELDING-DEFINITION.
Welding Definition File data The data in the file WELDING.WDF to produce the above Weld Table output looks like this :-

ISOGEN 9) User Defined Drawing Frames
When you installed ISOGEN a pre-defined drawing frame was loaded as a seed file for each isotype. Although these can be used as required, it is most likely, at some time you will want to make your own frames and have your isometrics plotted onto them. User Defined Drawing Frames are drawings created in the format to suit your Piping Design environment. eg MicroStation Design Files (DGN) and DXF or DWG files for AutoCAD. You can therefore customise the frame to include information such as a company logo and other symbols and text. Also, the layouts may be designed to suit your exact requirements. These Design Files are then used as seed files or underlay’s during the isometric production phase.
Actions required to modify a User Defined Drawing Frame 1.
Use MicroStation or AutoCAD to modify the appropriate seed file as required.
2.
Modify the associated AText file to change or suppress ISOGEN text as required. (See Advanced Features for control of AText.)
3.
Identify the location on the drawing for any new or revised data items and modify the TextPos file accordingly.
4.
Add records to the ISOGEN. FLS to specify: Include a record to point to the Drawing Frame file name : DRAWING-FRAME
Drawing_Frame_Name.DGN
Include a record pointing t o the file that contains your TextPos data. POSITIONED-TEXT
Text_Position_Name.POS
Include a record pointing t o the file that contains your AText data. ALTERNATIVE-TEXT
AText_Name.ALT
In the case of AutoCAD a DXF drawing frame can be used as an “underlay” into which the isometric is merged as it is created by ISOGEN but this adds significantly to both processing time and to the size of the drawing files created. A preferable alternative is to create the drawing frame as a DWG file and to create the Isometrics as a DXF without a DRAWING-FRAME record in the ISOGEN.FLS. The DWG file can then be loaded into AutoCAD and the DXF imported into it for plotting or the addition of data missing from the PCF.
✎
Please note that when working in a MicroStation environment the Design File for each isotype must be called isotype.DGN. eg for the isotype FINAL it will be called FINAL.DGN, and for the isotype CHECK it will be called CHECK.DGN. For other systems you may use any valid file name as long as you specify it correctly in the ISOGEN.FLS record.

ISOGEN 10) Output data files
In addition to producing isometrics, ISOGEN can also output information to text files for printing or use as data input for other systems. The types of files that may be produced in this way include: 1.
Printed Material List (BOM). This may be either the standard default version or alternatively, with a user defined content and layout and may be created either in addition to or instead of the Material List on the Iso.
2.
Material Control File. With user defined content and format.
3.
Weld Summary File. With user defined content and format.
Printed Material List (BOM) 1. To obtain a standard “Style 1” printed Material List for a pipeline all you have to do is to include an entry in the ISOGEN.FLS defining the name of the file to be created. eg
PRINTED-MATERIAL-LIST
BOM.MAT
The file BOM.MAT will then be created and data will be appended to it for each pipeline processed by Personal ISOGEN. 2. To obtain a user defined “Style 2” printed Material List you must : a) make a PRINTED-MATERIAL-LIST ‘filename’ entry in the ISOGEN.FLS file as above, and b) add a PRINTED-MATERIAL-LIST-TITLES section to your MLD file for the printed page titles. The remainder of the Material List control data will be taken from STYLE2COLUMN-HEADINGS and STYLE2-DATA-ITEMS information in the MLD file, which means the printed Material List will look just like the plotted one.
✎
If required the Material List may be suppressed such that it does not appear on the drawing by setting Option Switch 23. (See Reference Manual.)
Material Control File To obtain a user defined Material Control output file you must:a) Include an entry in the I SOGEN.FLS defining the name of the file to be created. eg MATERIAL-CONTROL MATLC.MAC The file MATLC.MAC will be created and data will be appended to it for every pipeline processed by ISOGEN . and
ALIAS
ISOGEN b) add PRINTED-M/C-COLUMN-HEADINGS for the printed page titles and PRINTED-M/C-DATA-ITEMS sections to your MLD file.

To obtain a user defined Weld Summary file you must: a) Include an entry in the ISOGEN.FLS defining the name and type of the file to be created. eg WELD-SUMMARY-OVERWRITE or
WELD-SUMMARY-APPEND
WELDSUM.WSO
WELDSUM.WSA
and b) add a section to the Welding Definition File (WDF) to define the printed output file.
