Crate symbol factories in Rapid?

[tranduong257]

Hello,
I am using Rapid Scada to design Scada for Gasoline & Petroleum depot. My project has 24 interfaces of 24 Tanks and they are similar. The problem is that when I want to edit the tanks, I have to fix all 24 different interfaces. I see that in other software such as WinCC, Intouch,… they have symbol factories that contain objects like tanks, valves, pumps,… So, can we create one in Rapid, and how to make it?
Thank you very much.

If the structure is completely identical, then you can do it according to the documentation by setting the offset of the mnemonic circuit channels

See CnlOffset

thank you,
but i means that how can I create a library as a symbol factory? The library contains objects tanks, valves,… like the components in scheme extra? Have we edited the source code, or just create a .dll file and add it to folder Rapid.

Hi,

I see your point. It’s important.
Currently, you can use scheme templates if the schemes are identical except channel numbers.

Could you make a screenshot and describe what part of the scheme you need to update? It would help to understand your particular case.
