Setting Model Options

Shows step-by-step how to set model options for radiator or cooling convector model series. This includes, for example, setting whether certain dimensions are to be observed during the dimensioning or whether, if the capacity is not met or is exceeded, certain dimensions should be larger or smaller.

Before you begin

You would like to define the Model options of a model series.

Requirement:

You have already preselected a radiator or cooling convector model series.

Navigate to:

Module overview ➤ Radiators/cooling convectors ➤ Project level ➤ Radiator preselection/cooling convector preselection

Procedure

In the preselection, select the model series for which you would like to specify the dimensioning options.
Click on the Model options button.

The dialog Radiator dimension limits and dimensioning options to be applied opens.
Make the desired settings for the dimensions.
Enter the desired settings for the dimensioning options.

Note:
The selection of dimensions takes precedence over the settings in the dimensioning options area during the design process.
In the Installation options area, specify which distances should be used when placing the radiators in a connected CAD.
Click OK.

What to do next

Now make the settings for the connection set of the selected radiator or cooling convector model series.
