Changing link types

Select Pipe 2, and right-click to open the pop-up menu, as shown below. From the list of options in the menu, choose Selected Links (1), as shown below. You will find an option Convert PIPE to:. Several options will be available, but for this step, we want to change a PIPE to a PUMP, thus select PUMP. The entire step is shown below:

 

WAD_Tut_EditLink_New

 

Simply select Yes at the following two prompts:

 

WAD_Tut_ConvertPipeToPump_New

 

WAD_QSGuide_RemoveTSControls_New

 

In order to enlarge the Pump icon, which is normally not required for typical networks, the following procedure can be followed:

Pumps are currently drawn using a special line type. Therefore, navigate to CAD > Tools > Manage Tables > Linetype.

Then, select the wa_PUMP record, and change the Size to 50 (m).

Also, select the wa_PUMP_Closed record, and change the Size to 50 (m).

Finally, select OK.

 

The pump icon should now be clearly visible between Node 2 and Node 3.
