Answers:
1. A function with manual engineering contains no request objects or manufacturer
devices for measuring or actuating. They need to be created manually.
When creating a template based function pre-defined request objects / manufacturer
devices will be created automatically, e.g. device request, channel request, request for
terminals for field and marshalling panels, loop diagram.

Introduction

This tutorial intends to convey the creation of document revisions and the working with
working layers.
You will:

Prepare the engineering project

Create a single revision (in a working layer)

Use the redlining functionality (in a working layer)

Release the working layer

Carry out a bulk revision (in the released area)

Always read the full information and the notes within one chapter and then follow them by
your own. The steps / chapters are sequently, so it is not possible to leave one out.
If you need support, talk to the trainer. If no trainer is available, use the figures in chapter 3.
The screenshots presented in this document are for reference use only.
NOTE:

It is required that you have processed the tutorial I&C: Marshalling /


connecting with the loop diagram in advance and that you have opened the
released area of the engineering project Training I&C with your default
access.
