Select

This is used to select one or multiple items on the drawing canvas.

Two pipe

This is used to draw two pipes (supply and return). This is the kind of pipe that you as a user will mostly use.

Header

This is used to draw a header. This pipe is used in places where one pipe arrives and multiple pipes leave.

Reverse return

The reverse return pipe is used so that the length of the circuit through the supply and return piping to each end unit is essentially the same. Therefore, balancing is almost unnecessary.

Changeover

This pipe can be used in a system where both heating and cooling connections are made through the same pipe.

Three pipe

This piping offers a significant reduction in installation costs and pipework compared with traditional four- pipe systems. Three-pipe systems can provide full heating and/or cooling to any room at any time.

Canvas Link

This is used to draw links between canvasses. This is needed as Hysopt is a 2D -modelling software.

Draw zone

This is used to draw zones which you can assign to the Base circuit ‘Radiator/Convector’. A zone is the equivalent of the room where the radiator/convector is located.

Assign to zone

Can be used to assign a radiator to a zone.

Unassign from zone

This button can be used to unassign a radiator from a zone.

Draw

Lets you draw control lines that are used to connect control base circuits or with base circuits.

Assign to the electric meter box*

This button can be used to assign an electric consumer to an electric meter box.

Unassign from the electric meter box*

This button can be used to unassign an electric consumer from an electric meter box.

Assign to fuel meter box*

This button can be used to assign a fuel consumer to a fuel meter box.

Unassign from the fuel meter box*

This button can be used to unassign a fuel consumer from a fuel meter box.

Insert label

Can be used to create text labels where you can write your comments etc. in.

Insert dynamic label

Can be used to create dynamic labels by clicking base circuits while this button is active.

Canvas selection and management

Canvas management & Floor plan implementation

Search

Can be used to search for components in your model.

Operations

Gives a screen of different operations you can use and the shortcuts for these operations.

Model settings

This lets you change the units, diversity standard and many more settings of your current model.
