Create phase class, phase, select unit

Use these instructions if you want to create a new phase class, phase and select a unit instead of associating the phase with a phase class that exists in the area model.
To create a new phase class, phase, and select a unit:
  1. In the box beneath the
    Phases
    list, enter a name for the new phase class. A list of units displays in the
    Units
    box.
  2. Select an icon to represent the new phase.
  3. In the
    Units
    box, select a unit to contain the new phase.
    TIP:
    Only units that do not contain a phase based on the selected phase class are displayed, unless the selected phase class is a material-based phase class. A unit can only contain one phase based on a specific phase class, with the exception of material-based phase classes. Multiple phases based on a specific material-based phase class can be added in one unit.
  4. Select
    Continue
    . If selected a
    Resolution
    of
    Create in Area Model
    for more than one phase, the
    Select Phase and Unit
    dialog box displays again for the next phase.
    Repeat steps 1 - 4 or see
    Select a phase and unit
    to select an existing phase class for the next phase.
    When synchronization of all selected phases is complete, the
    Synchronization Results Summary For Server:<data server name>
    dialog box opens.
    TIP:
    If
    Failed
    displays in the
    Result
    column, the reason displays in the
    Additional Information
    column.
  5. Review the displayed results of the synchronization. Phases that have a
    Result
    of
    Successful
    were created in the area model. Additionally, the phase name selected for the phase and the new Equipment ID are returned to the
    Logix Designer
    project file.
  6. If satisfied with the results, select
    Yes
    to save the
    Logix Designer
    project file.
    TIP:
    If not satisfied with the results, select
    No
    . The synchronization changes are
    not
    saved in the
    Logix Designer
    project file.
    The
    time
    and
    status
    of the synchronization displays in the
    Synchronize Logix5000 Data Servers
    window.
