ClearSCADA comes complete with a symbol library that contains a variety of pre-configured Mimic objects such as maps, pumps and valves. You can use the symbol Mimics in your own Mimic designs.
You can:
- Embed a Mimic from the symbol library onto your Mimic
- Copy the objects on a symbol library Mimic and paste them onto your own Mimic. This is useful if you only want to use part of a symbol Mimic or you want to make alterations to the object(s) on the symbol Mimic.
By using the symbol library, you can significantly reduce the amount of time it takes to configure your Mimics. You can use the symbol library Mimics to represent common system objects such as pumps, valves and pylons.
The symbol library Mimics also illustrate some of the effects that can be achieved with the various Mimic editing tools.
The latest version of the symbol library is included on your ClearSCADA installation CD (you can import the library file into your database by using the Import option that is available when you right-click on a system in the Database Bar in ViewX).
