Copy a Protective Instrument Loop Final Element System

Note: Copying a Protective Instrument Loop Final Element System alters the calculations of the loop. Therefore, you must verify the calculations again in the GE Digital APM system.

Steps

Access the Protective Instrument Loop Final Element System into which you want to copy another Final Element System.
In the upper-right corner of the datasheet, select Copy.

The Search window appears.
In the upper-right corner of the window, select .

A list of Protective Instrument Loop Final Element Systems appears.
Select the check box that corresponds to the Final Element System that you want to copy, and then select OK.

The Protective Instrument Loop Final Element System is copied.

Results

The values in each field of the copied record are overwritten by those of the original record that you copied.
The value in the Final Element System ID field in the copied record is appended with a 1.
All the Final Element Groups and Final Elements linked to the original Final Element System also become a part of the Final Element System that you copied, replacing the existing ones. If these existing records are not part of another protective instrument loop, they are deleted. Otherwise, they are just unlinked from the loop.
Copying a record alters the calculations for the loop. The GE Digital APM system performs the calculations again.
