Non-graphical elements (bulk meters, reservoirs, pumps, control valves) are those which are attached in the configuration of other compound elements. This document describes how to locate the parent compound element these non-graphical elements are located in, on the GIS window.

Locate reservoirs, pumps, control valves inside compound elements

In the Main tab of the element properties, if the element is attached inside a compound element, the  button will be enabled.

By clicking the  button, the properties window for the parent compound element will open. The parent compound element is a graphical element, so you can see it on the map by clicking .

Tip: If the  button is not enabled, this means the element is not attached to a parent compound element.

 

Locate bulk meters inside compound elements

Bulk meters are located inside meter positions, which are then attached to compound elements.

In the General tab of the bulk meter properties, if the element is attached inside a meter position, the  button will be enabled.

By clicking the  button, the properties window for the parent compound element will open, similar to before.

Tip: If the  button does not open a new window, this means the element is not attached to a parent compound element.
