ArcFM Desktop Configuration Guide
Basic ArcFM Configuration

Version: 10.2.1c and 10.2.1c SP3

Resource Center Home

The sample data provided with the ArcFM Solution makes extensive use of model names and autoupdaters to support the functionality of tools and components that make editing more productive in ArcMap. This appendix lists the feature classes and fields to which model names and autoupdaters are assigned in a database such as Minerville. This page gives the basic configuration for ArcFM. ArcFM tools such as Feeder Manager and Tracing require additional configuration. See the Configuring ArcFM section for information about configuring specific ArcFM tools. Use the Snapping Manager to set snapping on feature classes.

Autoupdaters: All autoupdaters are described in the Appendix in the Documentation Center in exchange. It is a good idea to review the descriptions for the autoupdaters assigned below and ensure you understand what they do. Do not assign an autoupdater to a feature if you do not want it to fire.

ArcFM components do not support 64-bit processes.

Create Domains

There are several domains you must create in order to use tracing. These domains provide the coded values for various functionalities. The Object Class Model Name Domain and Field Model Name Domain must be created in order to assign model names in the ArcFM Properties Manager. See Domains for more information.

Create Conduit Tracing Domains

Create Feeder Manager 1.0 Domains

Create Feeder Manager 2.0 Domains

Create Gas Tracing Domains

Create Water Tracing Domains

Create Fiber Manager Domains

This Appendix entry gives a brief description of the domains.
