Network Adapter creates for you NetworkAdapter.mdb and places this database at the following location: C:\Documents and Settings\[username]\Application Data\Miner and Miner\Network Adapter. This database must be configured using the following steps.
- First open ArcMap and perform an export to your analysis tool. This causes Network Adapter to create a new database, if one doesn't exist.
- Execute Load Flow Analysis. LoadFlow tables are created in NetworkAdapter.mdb.
- Execute Short Circuit Analysis. ShortCircuit tables are created in NetworkAdapter.mdb.
- Click the Get Load Case button to create a LoadCase_Transformer table in NetworkAdapter.mdb.
- Close ArcMap and open ArcCatalog.
- In ArcCatalog, browse to your Network Adapter database and select the database.
- Click Create ArcFM Solution System Tables on the ArcFM Solution toolbar (refer to the Configuring ArcFM Solution online help for more information).
- Click ArcFM Solution Object Converter and select Convert to ArcFM Objects (refer to the Configuring ArcFM Solution online help for more information).
- In ArcCatalog, right click the load case table (e.g., LoadCase_Transformer) and select ArcFM Properties Manager. Select the Object Info tab.
- Assign the ArcFM Update Network Adapter Table autoupdater to the On Feature Create, On Feature Update, and On Feature Delete events. Click OK.
A join must exist between the Transformer layer in your GIS and the LoadCase_Transformer table in the Network Adapter database. The Create Joins page discusses the procedures for creating these joins.
